Shree Raghavendra Swamy Aaraadhanaa

Today is a very auspicious day in the Hindu Calender.  It is the Aaraadhanaa day of Shree Raghavendra Swamy, one of the most revered saints in the Maadhwaa community to which I belong. 

Shree Raghavendra Swamy is considered to be a reincarnation of Lord Prahlaadhaa, a great devotee of Shree Mahaa Vishnu and son of evil demon king Hiranyakashapu. According to Scriptures, Lord Shree Mahaa Vishnu incarnated as Lord Narasimhaa and killed the evil demon king.
