Why is Lord Narasimha offered non-vegetarian food at this temple?

How do I reach the Pavana Narasimha Temple?

In the unique tradition of the local Chenchu tribes, Lord Narasimha is revered not just as a deity but as a family member. They offer him non-vegetarian food as a mark of their familial respect and love, treating him as their own son-in-law.

Nestled in the dense Nallamalla forest near Ahobilam, the journey to Pavana Narasimha Temple is an adventure in itself. You can either trek from the base of the hill, immersing yourself in the natural beauty of the forest, or opt for local transport services from Nandyal, which provide a more comfortable travel option to the temple.
