Short

explanation:

 

Sri Laxminarasimha, just as your fingernails have enough power

to destroy demons of mountainous might such as hiranyakashyapu and his clan, we

pray that, these nails destroy darkness and oceans of ignorance in minds of us

mortals and fill OUT mind with pure ad radiant Haribhakti.

 

 

Translation:

 

 

OM! Adorned with Lakshmi, all pervading Lord

Narasimha How shall I praise you, thy greatness and prowess Thy nails are

dazzling like the Vajra of Indra Which smashed the elephantine mountains, the

demons Thy nails wipe enemies like lust and erase ignorance They are ideal for

the penance of gods I praise thy nails O Lord Narasimha Protect the righteous

and destroy our enemies.

Explanation: Formerly mountains had wings; in their flight,

they came down and buried whole cities. So God Indra cut off their wings with

his massive thunderbolt. Daityas- the born enemies of Gods are likened to huge

bodied mountain like elephants and Shri Narasimha is the all powerful lion. The

spacious, sharp claws are compared to Indra's thunderbolt. Each nail is

effectual in smashing the gigantic Demons. These nails are supremely superhuman

and their imperishable, eternal and divine pre-eminence is incessantly mediated

upon by all the Gods with deep sincere devotion for knowledge and light. The

Nails dispel the darkness of ignorance common to souls clothed with perishable

bodies with active organs, which are always sensing pleasures. The whole

structure of this 'Man-Lion' forms the manifestation of 'sat', 'chit',

'ananda-atma' and not the structure of 'prak^ruti = (satva, rajas, tamas)'. So

Nrusimha is apakrutha sharira = vishnu avatara.

Short

explanation:

Of all the the avataras of Shree Hari or Vishnu, Narasimha, is

the most powerful and violent. In the entire

pantheon of god and goddesses

there is no one who is greater than or equal to Narasimha,

hence this shloka is dedicated solely to “Lakshnkanta”.

 

Translation:

I delved deep into space and time; Vedas, Shastras and

Puranas I couldn't find matter better than thee for songs and prayers The taste

of thy name is unique, its eight RASA Oh Lord of Lakshmi, the ultimate Reality,

I chant thy merits When furious, a wink of thy right eye emits fire of Pralaya

in that fire gods like Brahma, Rudra and Indra burn like moths You are the creator,

protector and Destroyer, the Omnipotent You are Omniscient, Omnipresent; I

remain thy proud Bhakta. Explanation: Oh! Lord of Goddess Lakshmi, a searching

study of all the shastraas and a deep contemplation and devoted thoughts have

proved that you are the only supreme being, there being none equal to you and

we cannot have a seventh 'rasa' to add to the recognized 'shat rasa' and the

'astama rasa' is an absolute impossibility. The Lord is the Creator, Protector

and Destroyer of the Universe and when He sends forth even a glow worm-like

spark from His eye; that spark will reduce God Brahma, Indra and everything

under them to ashes. So Sri Narasimha kind graces should be sought after by all

devoted souls.
