Legend / Local stories
According to the history, goddess Prathiyangara is a lion headed form of the divine mother. Prathiyangara Devi has been created to calm down the anger of Lord Narasimha. When Lord Narasimha, killed the demon Hiranyakasipu, his anger had not reduced and this worried the other Gods. So, they went to Lord Shiva to calm Lord Narasimha down. Lord Shiva took the Tri Shakthi’s (Goddess Parvati, Mahalakshmi and Saraswathi). He combined the powers of Trishakthi and showed up in the form of Lord Sarabeswara. This is the most powerful form of lord Shiva.
God Narasimha was not calmed down even by lord Shiva. Finally, goddess Shakthi appeared in the form of huge and fearful goddess called Prathiyangara. Prathiyangara with Shoolini Durga gave knowledge to God Narasimha and then he realized that his work had been completed after which he calmed down. Goddess Prathiyangara Devi protects her devotees from all types of harms.
