Lord Vishnu sent the rakshasa Bali to the Pathalam in order to save dharma. Thus in each incarnation lord Vishnu has served a specific purpose. Even in his 6th incarnation as Parasuarama, lord Vishnu exterminated the sinful, destructive, irreligious and irresponsible monarchs or kings.
According to some puranas sources, it is strongly believed that unlike all other avatars Parasuarama still lives on earth even to day. He is a Chiranjeevi. Secondly, he is a version of extreme emotions. That’s why he has not been popularly worshipped by the people as they worship Rama or Krishna. However in places like Udupi, Gokarna, Kanyakumari, maharastra and Assam people do worship Parasuarama. The people on Konkan call their land as Parasuarama bhoomi.
Though Parasuarama is Chiranjeevi like lord Hanuman, he is not worshipped like him.
As Parasuarama is an incarnation of emotion like Varaha swamy and Nrusimha swamy, there is no scope for him to have more number of temples. However people worship both Varaha swamy and Nrisimhaswamy when they are existed with their consorts. Since Parasuarama is a celibate and a ferocious incarnation with extreme violence and fury, he is generally not worshipped by the people. But here and there, quite a few people do worship him. Nevertheless woman devotees are very less.
Lord Parasuarama is also referred to as Bhagavan Rama and even Bhrigupati. By his mother’s side Parasuarama belongs to the royal race of Kusikas. Hence, he has got the name as Bhargava. By his father side, he descended from Bhrigu maharshi and so he has attained the mother name `Bhrigupati’ also. The direct descendants of Parasuarama, the Bhumihar and Tyagi sub- castes belonging to the regions of western utter Pradesh are seen even today major in parochial regions and their major occupation is agriculture.
The purpose of the incarnation of Parasuarama can be extracted from his suprabhata mantra- Rama Parasuarama Vishnavarama Renukamba Rama… namah suprabhata.

Health is vale more than wealth. Body condition depends on health. Health is important to living happy. Good health is wanted to man.
It is not how long we live in this world. But how well we live is vitally important. To day, many are suffering from different kinds of physical infirmities. We know well, that in these days, people are becoming very much health conscious, but yet are under going tremendous physical trauma and problems.
The progress of your physical health depends on your spiritual progress. Almost ninety percent of the people in the world to day are concerned more about their physical fitness and health and do not even consider their spiritual life and welfare of their soul.
Man is a triune being, and is a combination of spirit part, soul part and body part. Spiritual part is god conscious, soul part is self conscious and part is world conscious. People generally take care of the soul part and body part and feed them well, but starve their spirit part. They feed their minds with the things and thoughts of the world and become weak in their spirit.
What should be done now? Your thought line should become healthy and godly and you should be able to entertain good and healthy thoughts and expel the thoughts which are UN health to both your spiritual and physical life.
This kind of good and positive thinking is the foundation beneath our real health and will make us proper in spirit, soul and body.
