Narsingh Dega

Narsingh is half man and half lion

Narsingh is half man and half lion. Narsingh statues often show a man with a lion’s head and four arms holding the traditional Vishnu symbols. In the man- lion’s lap will be the demon which Narsingh is about to disembowel.  The double roofed Narsingh temple is near to Teel Mahadav Narayan temple.
