Ranganadha Swami Temple | Sri Rangapattanam | Mysore
History Of The Temple:
According to the belief of Hindu mythology, River Cauvery is like a mother and she was so pure, she could clear even the sins of the Holy Ganges. There was pollution in River Ganges due to the sins of numerous devotees. River Cauvery imbibed all the impurities and had made the Ganges holy. As she became clogged with endless sins, she prayed Lord Vishnu and underwent a rigorous penance to get his blessings. The benevolence of Lord Vishnu made her happy. Eventually, Lord Vishnu descended down to the River Cauvery to clear off her sins. The Adi Ranga is Srirangapatna which is one of the important residences of Lord Maha Vishnu. This place is also called Gautama Kshetra. Maharishi Gautama had performed penance here to Lord Vishnu in the reclining posture (Sayana Pose).
