Ragigudda Anjaneya Temple

Sthala katha — the traditional account

What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.

The hillock is said to have formed from ragi given as alms by a pious woman named Sudharma to the three great gods in disguise, who afterwards revealed themselves and turned to stone nearby, the three stones now bearing their carved figures.
