Source: Hindupedia: VaishnavismAntyaraṅga (अन्त्यरङ्ग) is the name of a deity of one of the three temples of Raṅganātha.—Raṅganātha is an aspect of Viṣṇu. Images of Raṅganātha are invariably in the śayana or reclining posture. Three temples of this deity are at Śrīraṅgapaṭṭaṇa, Śivasamudra and Śrīraṅga. The first two are in the Karnataka state and the last one is in Tamil Nadu. The deities are known as: 1) Ādiraṅga; 2) Madhyaraṅga; 3) Antyaraṅga. All the three temples are situated on small islands created by the branching off into two, of the river Kāveri.
Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
