The Legend of Ardhagiri: Half a Mountain, Full of Grace

During the epic Treta Yuga, Lord Hanuman soared across the skies, carrying the mighty Dronagiri Mountain—replete with life-saving herbs—to heal Lakshmana. As he passed over, Bharata, Lord Rama's brother, mistook the flying mountain for an ill omen.

Bharata's swift arrow struck Hanuman, causing a portion of the sacred mountain to fall to earth at this very spot. This fragment became known as Ardhagiri, the 'Half Mountain,' forever imbued with the mountain's potent essence.

From that moment, the fallen Dronagiri became a beacon of strength, and Lord Hanuman is worshipped here as Veera Anjaneya Swamy, bestowing courage and healing upon all who seek his blessings.
