History & tradition
The Panniyur Sri Varahamurthy Temple is at Kumbidi in the Pattambi taluk of Palakkad district, Kerala. It is dedicated to Varaha, the boar avatar of Vishnu, who is enshrined with the goddess Bhumi. Tradition holds it to be the first temple in Kerala consecrated by Parasurama: the legend tells that when the land he had raised from the sea would not stay still, he prayed to Vishnu, who appeared to him as Varaha. The temple is counted among the 108 Abhimana Kshetrams of the Vaishnava tradition.
