Big Anjaneya
Idol at Sri Bedi Anjaneya Swamy Temple is located exactly to the opposite of Sri
Venkateswara Vaari Swamy Temple also famous as World Richest Tirupati Balaji
Tempe in Tirumala at Tirupati under Chittoor district in the Indian state of
Andhra Pradesh.
According to
the legend, Lord Hanuman in his youthful age wanted to leave Tirumala, in
search of a camel. This forced his mother Anjana Devi to tie his hands with
cuffs and order him to stay in that place till she returned. However, it is
believed that Anjana Devi stayed back in Akasa Ganga area and never returned to
this place. Hence, the icon of Lord Hanuman in this temple will be seen in a
unique form where both his hands were handcuffed (“Bedi-Cuffs”).
