Durga..Pleased by tapasya Maa Durga appeared before him and offered him boon (Vara)..Keeludu, with all his devotion asked Maa Durga to stay in his heart ( Hrudaya kuharam).
Then Durgamma asked Keela to stay and wait at the shore of the River Krishna.
After eliminating Durgamasura in her fierce avatara of Durga, as per the word given to Keeludu stayed at Keeladri( top of the hill).
On seeing her Ugra (fierce) Roopa , Indra , the lord of
heavens(Indra) and other angels asked her to take a dip in Krishna River and cool
herself as nobody can bear her fierce and ferocious incarnation.
Accordingly Maa Kanaka Durga has taken dip in Krishnaveni ( the Krishna River )and became santiswaroopini.
From that day Maa Durga started staying at this place which is named as Indrakeeladri.
Indra keeladri is the place where Arjuna(Maha Bharatha) did Tapasya and secured astras from Shiva. Arjuna , during his Ajnathavas Kept his armour on a tree (Samee Vrusha) at this place and prayed to Samee Vrusha
Even today, devotees pray to (Samee Vrusha) at this place.
The temple of Lord Shiva on the HIll gives us chance to Pray to Lord shiva where abhishekas are performed regularly.
