“I offer my respects to the great Lord Nrisimhadeva. You have nails and teeth like lightning bolts and are garlanded by a mane of flames. Chopping, cutting, tearing, and killing, please protect us, your devotees.”
Lord Nrisimhadeva is an avatar of Lord Vishnu. His wonderful form is that of a half-man and half-lion. His wide open mouth displays a set of wonderful pearl-like teeth, with a growl to chase away the miscreants and any fears perturbing the hearts of his devotes. With magnificent nails, he has three eyes and is as radiant as the autumn moon; the lord’s charming face is a joy to look at! The Lord has four mighty arms, yet his limbs are as soft as butter. He is decorated with golden earrings, and His wide chest is resplendent like a lotus flower. His arms are embellished with jewel-studded ornaments, and he is armed with weapons such as the conch and disc.
The Lord is an abode of all auspiciousness; although a lioness is generally very ferocious, she is very kind to her cubs. Similarly, although very ferocious to the non-devotees like Hiranyakashipu, Lord Nrisimhadeva is very, soft and kind to devotees like Prahlad Maharaja.
