About the Temple

Vrindavan is land of Lord Krishna, narrow streets, delectable sweets, handcrafted idols and temple in every house is what makes this place unique and beautiful in its own way. Vrindavan is a place where pilgrims feel supreme spirituality away from the havocs of life. Vrindavan is a place where Lord Krishna performed his childhood tricks with Brijwasis. With approximately 5000 temples in the town some temples outstand the rest due to their exceptional relations with the land. One such temple is the Panchayati Narsingh Mandir. Narsingh Mandir in Vrindavan is one of the few temples that have been established with an intention to let the Lord resides in the pious land. Built around 200 years ago, this temple is amongst the few living legends of Vrindavan which is untouched by the effects of urbanization and technology. Amidst loads of Krishna’s temples, Brijwale.com suggests you to visit Panchayati Narsingh Mandir in Vrindavan. Like Lord Krishna, Narsingh ji is also a reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. This 4th incarnation of Lord Vishnu is in form of half lion and half man. According to Shri Mad Bhagwat Mahapuran Lord Vishnu reincarnated as Nar Singh to protect his dear devotee Prahlada. He creatively destroyed Prahlada demonic father and the cruel king Hiranyakashipu. It is said that Narsingh ji is basically the protector who came to Earth to protect his devotees from the evil king. This protector of devotion is said to be one of the angriest incarnations of Lord Vishnu. The Narsingh Mandir in Vrindavan also has special eminence amongst the devotees. On the occasion of Narsingh Chaturdashi, the day when Lord Narsingh appeared, a small dramatization of the whole Narsingh Leela is performed in the temple. This procession is an event of enthusiasm for the whole city, and the temple on this day is flocked with thousands of devotees from across the country, to just have a glimpse of the whole Leela.
