Sri Veerabhadra Swamy

Veerabhadra, also known as Veerabhadra Swamy, is one of the Shiva Ganas. Veerabhadra is also worshipped as an independent Hindu God in some temples and in such worships He is considered as the son of Lord Shiva. Veerabhadra originated from a single strand of hair that was thrown on to earth by Lord Shiva on hearing the death through self immolation by Goddess Sati. Thus Veerabhadra is manifestation of Shiva’s anger or the human form given to his unparalleled fury.
