Lord Ranganatha is a form of the great Vishnu as He is worshipped in South India. The iconography derives from the ancient temple of Ranganathaswamy in Srirangam, Tamil Nadu. Like the Sheshashayi Vishnu, or Vishnu in the lying stance (‘shayi’) upon Sheshanaga (‘naga’ is Sanskrt for serpent), Rangantha also reclines nestled within the coils of Adishesha.
