Naranarayana (Sanskrit: नरनारायण, romanized: Naranārāyaṇa), also rendered Nara-Narayana, is a Hindu duo of sage-brothers. Generally regarded to be the partial-incarnation (aṃśa-avatara)[1] of the preserver deity, Vishnu, on earth,[2] Nara-Narayana are described to be the sons of Dharma and Ahimsa.[3]
The Hindu scripture Mahabharata identifies the prince Arjuna with Nara, and the deity Krishna with Narayana.[4] The legend of Nara-Narayana is also told in the scripture Bhagavata Purana. Hindus believe that the pair dwells at Badrinath, where their most important temple stands.
