According to an ancient Hindu mythology, there lived a great sage Yadarishi in Treta Yuga. He is the son of Rishi Rishyashringa and Santa Devi. He performed a great Tapas to please Lord Vishnu on Yadagiri hill. Lord Vishnu as Narasimha Swamy was pleased by his penance appeared in front of him in three avatars - Jwala Narasimha, Gandabheranda Narasimha and Yogananda Narasimha. Sage Yadarishi was not happy with Lord Narasimha appearing alone as Yogananda Narasimha. He wanted to see the Lord together with his consort.
