  • Five N‰Siâha Temples in Andhra Pradesh and Their Function As a Religious Collective
    FIVE N‰SIÂHA TEMPLES IN ANDHRA PRADESH AND THEIR FUNCTION AS A RELIGIOUS COLLECTIVE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Anu Vedagiri, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Susan L. Huntington, Adviser Professor John C. Huntington ________________________________ Professor Howard G. Crane Adviser Graduate Program in History of Art ABSTRACT This study focuses on five temples dedicated to N®siµha that are situated along the K®≈∫å River in the region of Andhra Pradesh, India. The temples are located at Vadapalli and Mattapalli in Nalgonda District, Ketavaram and Mangalagiri in Guntur District, and Vedadri in the Krishna District. Although built during different time periods, the five N®siµha temples function as a religious collective. While some of the temples have been the subject of individual study, the temples as a group have received very little attention from scholars. My research provides the first contextual analysis of the five temples as a group. Religious cults have played a significant role in molding the life and institutions of India from early times. Among the Vai≈∫ava religious practices, the cult of N®siµha, the fourth incarnation of the Hindu god Vi≈∫u, is an important and powerful one. N®siµha, the Man-Lion incarnation, one of the ten main incarnations of Vi≈∫u, came to earth to rescue the world from an evil king named Hira∫yakaßipu. There are numerous centers of N®siµha worship spread across India. However, N®siµha seems to be particularly popular and important in the state of Andhra Pradesh.

The two liter water samples are collected by Grab Sampling process at a distance of 50meters from river Catchment at five different places of Krishna River, and then analyzed in the laboratory using APHA standard procedures. With the help of analytical results, the WQI was estimated using weighted average method with the use of IS10500:2012 standards and those are compared with standard WQI values. Index Terms— Surface water, Krishna River, Analysis, Water Quality Parameters and Water Quality Index. 1. INTRODUCTION Water is one of the basic needs to survival on the earth. The sources of water are surface and ground water. The surface water source is precipitation and melting of glaciers.
