Sthala Purana
Avaniyapuram is traditionally revered as Dakshina Ahobilam. The sacred hill is associated with several forms of Narasimha and with a wide Vaishnava sacred geography that brings together memories of major Vishnu Kshetras.
The temple is noted for the concentration of Narasimha forms within one hill complex and for its strong regional pilgrimage tradition. The unusual iconography and hill setting make Avaniyapuram one of Tamil Nadu's distinctive Narasimha temples.
