Narayaneeyam Dasakam 21 -
Nine Regions (Varshas) of the Universe and Modes of Worship
The earth's middle region is called Ilaavrita and is inhabited exclusively by women with Gauri (Parvati) as their chief. Lord Siva, present there in the form of Ardhanareeshwara and Lord Vishnu are worshipped as Sankarshana by Shiva through sacred mantras and hymns of praise.
Bhadraswa, east of Ilaavrita, is inhabited by Bhadravasas, who worship Lord Hayagreeva, the embodiment of Knowledge.
Harivarsha is to the south of Ilaavrita, where Prahalada and other devotees pray to the Lord in Narahari form, whose body is tall and white, calm and a bestower of knowledge of Brahman.
To the west of Ilaavrita is the Ketumala, where the lord is in the form of Kamadeva and is worshipped by Lakshmi and the sons of Prajapathi.
Ramyaka, which is to the north, is the place where Vaivaswata Manu worships Lord in the form of fish or Matsya, who shines in the heart of those who are devoid of attachments.
To the north of Ramyaka is the region Hiranmaya, where the Lord resides in the form of a huge Tortoise which bore the Mandara mountain on its back and is worshipped by the Chief of Pitrus, Aryama.
Lord exists in the form of divine Varaha, who took the avataar to save the earth to the north of Hiranmaya. Goddess of Earth worships the Lord by singing hymns in praise here.
Kimpurusha, to the south of Ilaavrata, is the place where Lord exists in the form of Rama and is worshipped by the mighty Hanuman with supreme devotion.
In the Bharathakanda region, Lord exists in the form of Narayana, with his companion Nara, until the pralaya kaalam, to protect the devotees, and is worshipped by Sage Narada and other supreme devotees with hymns based on Sankya yoga and Ashtanga yoga.
People worship Lord in the form of the sun in plaaksha and the moon in shaalmala, fire in kushadveep, water in Kraunch, wind in shaaka, and as Brahmaa in Pushkara.
Lord is worshipped by great sages and stars such as Dhruva and planets at dawn, noon and dusk in the form of Simsumara, the enormous fish.
Narayana Bhattathiri worships Lord Guruvayurappan in the form of Adhisesha, residing in Paataal loka, with a thousand heads, wearing a blue dress and holding a plough as a weapon, and requests him to accept his praise and eradicate his ailments.
