Guest guest Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Sri Sudarsana/Yoga Narasimha In order to relieve the suffering of people in this world, the devotees prayed to Bramha to create a powerful Shakti. So Bramha took up a serious penance for thousands of years resulting in the creation of, one of the Sri Vishnu's Ayudhapurushas, the extremely powerful Sri Sudarshana. Sri Sudarshana represents the cosmic mind and also Vishnu's infinite power to create and destroy the universe. He also represents Sri Vishnu's will to multiply. He also will neutralize all poisons. There are more than one hundred and eight names to Sri Sudarshana. Among them are Sudarshana, Chakraraja and Sahasrabahu. Prayers to Sri Sudarshana will alleviate serious diseases, avert great dangers and prevent obstacles in any one's efforts to succeed. Narasimha Avatara is the fifth re-incarnation of Lord Vishnu. As Narashimha, He destroyed the demon king Hiranyakashiyapu, the father of Baktha Prahalad. Sudarshana and Narasimha are one and the same as two faces of a coin. Both deities benefit the entire human kind by their blessings.
