Dear devotees,

 

The endearing story of how Lord Narasimha (the fourth of Vishnu's

dasavatara-s) saved His devotee Prahlada from a demonic tyrant has

perpetually fascinated mankind. Indeed, for millenia artists have painted and

carved His form, great kings have sought His blessings before war, and the

devotees have always recited His transcendental pastimes and worshipped His

vigraha-form.

 

In Narasimha-purana, Sri Narasimha's power is hinted at by Hiranyakasipu

himself just before his horrific demise:

 

"In course of our fight, Indra's lordly elephant came to hit me in the chest;

I remember its tusks strong like pestle had been broken to pieces. The

battle axe of Lord Shiva (the holder of the Pinaka bow) had been blunted in

collision with my chest, but alas! Now the Nails of Narasimha so easily tear

apart my huge expansive chest!"

 

Visit http://narasimha.avatara.org and see the Lord's power and glory!

 

Enjoy your visit!
