Sri Raghavendra Thirtharu and his team were travelling in North Karnataka and reached a village called Krishnapura. It was scorching hot day, and all were resting at a place. On knowing that Rayaru is in the vicinity, the Nawab of Savanur comes walking and approaches Rayaru. He makes a humble submission to Rayaru that he has lost his son due to a venomous snake bite. Rayaru on hearing this meditates on Lord Moola Rama and instructs the Nawab to unbury the boy. The Nawab gets puzzled and immediately arranges to remove the boy buried in the earth. Rayaru Prays to Lord Moola Rama, sprinkles the Holy Water on the body. Immediately everybody around would be shocked to see the boy opening his eyes as though he is getting up from deep sleep. Seeing the boy brought back to life, the Nawab overwhelmed with joy fell on the feet of Rayaru. Nawab asks Rayaru as to how did this happen? Rayaru replies it is the wish of – Lord Hari that your son has to live long.

The Nawabs joy knew no bounds and gifts Rayaru many villages as a thanksgiving for bringing his dead son back to life.
