SUMMARY: Sri Madhwacharyaru obtained from Lord Sri Narayana (Sri Vedavyasaru) the holy idols of stone comprising Sri Narayana, who is unwelcome among sinners, and ever-accompanying Goddess Lakshmi. 

It is mentioned in Bhavaprakashika that Sri Madhwaru did not want to depart from Sri Narayana. Therefore, Sri Vedavyasaru gave him the idol by stating: “Ganga will always be present in the water with which you take bath and I will be present in this idol too.”

These are the stone images known as VyasamuShTi and there are eight such stone idols, as mentioned in Vayupurana. This information is cited by Sri Chalari Sheshacharyaru.

There is little suspicion about the fact that the VyasamuShTi was given by Sri Vedavyasaru. However, some people contend that Sri Vedavyasaru isn’t an incarnation of Sri Narayana but a common human being with certain mystic tricks. That is why “Sri NarAyaNataha” has been used and it symbolically confirms that Sri Vedavyasaru is an incarnation of Sri Narayana. This explanation has once again been asserted by Sri Chalari Sheshacharyaru.
