This trader went towards the hills of Vindhyachal to construct a temple of Hanuman to fulfil his wish of getting a son. In the chain of hills of Vindhyachal that trader had constructed a huge statue of Hanuman out of stone. He decided to bathe that statue of Hanuman at many places of pilgrimage. While bathing this statue of Hanuman at various Teerthsthals, he ultimately arrived at Sangam Kshetra of Prayag. While he was taking rest in the night he dreamt that if he leaves this statue at this holy place his all the wishes will be fulfilled. At the dawn of the day he decided to work on the lines of the previous night dream. Thus leaving that statue at Prayag Kshetra that rich trader left for his city Kannauj. As the time passed that rich trader got a son born to his wife by the kindness of Shri Bade Hanuman.
The statue remained submerged in the waters and got stuck under the sands. After some time a pinancing Mahatma Shri Balgiri Ji arrived at Sangam Kshetra in the holy month of Magha to have a pious dip in Triveni. One day when that pinancing Mahatma was piercing his Trishul in the sand, he got some inkling of that statue. He removed soil and sand from that place and unearthed the statue. He made efforts to bring that statue in a standing posture but even after trying much hard, he was unable succeed. It was believed that Shri Bade Hanuman did not want to be removed from that particular place and all the efforts to remove the same were stopped. Consequently the statue of Shri Bade Hanuman was left at the place where it was found by Shri Balgiri Ji Maharaj and a temple was subsequently constructed.

Gayatri Mantra AUM BHOOR BHUWAH SWAHA, TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM BHARGO DEVASAYA DHEEMAHI DHIYO YO NAHA PRACHODAYAT
Summary of the Mantra
Oh God! Thou art the Giver of Life, Remover of pain and sorrow, The Bestower of happiness, Oh! Creator of the Universe, May we receive thy supreme sin-destroying light, May Thou guide our intellect in the right direction.
Word for Word Meaning of the Mantra Aum = Brahma ; Bhoor = embodiment of vital spiritual energy(pran) ; Bhuwah = destroyer of sufferings ; Swaha = embodiment of happiness ; Tat = that ; savitur = bright like sun ; Varenyam = best choicest ; Bhargo = destroyer of sins ; Devasya = divine ; Dheemahi = may imbibe ; Dhiyo = intellect ; Yo = who ; Naha = our ; Prachodayat = may inspire ;
Meaning of Gayatri Mantra Rishis selected the words of various Mantras and arranged them so that they not only convey meaning but also create specific power through their utterance. Gayatri Mantra inspires wisdom. Its meaning is that "May the Almighty God illuminate our intellect to lead us along the righteous path". All the problems of a person are solved if he/she is endowed with the gift of righteous wisdom. Once endowed with far-sighted wisdom, a man is neither entangled in calamity nor does he tread the wrong path. A wise man finds solution to all outstanding problems. Only those persons who do not think correctly find difficulty and take wrong steps due to foolishness. Chanting of Gayatri Mantra removes this deficiency. The teachings and powers incorporated in the Gayatri Mantra fulfill this purpose. Righteous wisdom starts emerging soon after chanting this Mantra.
According to legend it is believed that when the Devas saw the manifestation of Lord Vishnu as half lion half man they shouted "Ahobala" (great strength) as well as "Ahobila" (great cave in which the current sanctum is). Hence this place could be called "Ahobalam" or "Ahobilam". Another Legend talks about that Lord Garuda did penance to see Lord Vishnu in Lord Narasimha form. Hence, Lord Narasimha took nine different forms in this hill. Lord Narasimha in nine forms are

The story
In 15th century A.D Sri Krishnadevaraya, the emperor of Vijayanagara kingdom had to desist from ruling the kingdom for some short spell to overcome from the bad omen "Kuhoo". During this interim period Sri Vyasaraya ruled and returned back the reigns of the kingdom to Sri Krishnadevaraya. Fully contended with shouldering the responsibility for a while he commenced his journey to the down south to propogate the philosophy of prayers and offerings to God. He was deeply devoted to Sri Anjaneya Swamy and would not touch a drop a water without offering prayers to him. He installed and consecrated the images of Sri Anjaneya Swamy in every village he visited. During his sojourn at Chippagiri, Sri Vyasaraya dreamt Sri Anjaneya Swamy asking him to install his image in certain place of the village of Nethikallu which he liked very much, where the dried neem stick sprouts. In obedience of the above, Sri Vyasaraya proceeded to Nethikallu and installed the image of Sri Anjaneya at the selected place.

All the problems of a person are solved if he/she is endowed with the gift of righteous wisdom. Once endowed with far-sighted wisdom, a man is neither entangled in calamity nor does he tread the wrong path. A wise man finds solution to all outstanding problems.
