Narasimha also spelt as Narasingh and Narasinga, is an avatara of Vishnu described in the Puranas, Upanishads and other ancient religious texts of Hinduism,and one of Hinduism's most popular deities, as evidenced in early

epics, iconography, and temple and festival worship for over a

millennium. He is often visualized as one who takes the form of half-man/half-lion having a human-like torso and a lower body, but with a lion-like face and claws. This image is widely worshiped in deity form by a significant number of Vaishnava groups (especially in south India He is known primarily as the 'Great Protector' who specifically defends and protects his devotees at the times of need.A number of prayers have been written in dedication to Narasimha avatar. These include:

 

The Nirsimha Maha-Mantra

Om Ugram, Viram, Maha-Vishnu,Jwalantam, Sarvato Mukam,Nirshimham, Bhishanam, Bhadram,Mrityor-Mrityur namam yaham.

"O' Angry and brave Maha-Vishnu, your heat and fire permeate

everywhere. O Lord Narasimha, you are everywhere. You are the death of

death and I surrender to You."

ito nrsimhah parato nrsimho,yato yato yami tato nrsimhah,bahir nrsimho hrdaye nrsimho,nrsimham adim saranam prapadye

ava kara-kamala-vare nakham adbhuta-srngam,dalita-hiranyakasipu-tanu-bhrngam,kesava dhrta-narahari-rupa jaya jagadisa hare

"O Kesava! O Lord of the universe. O Lord Hari, who have assumed the

form of half-man, half-lion! All glories to You! Just as one can easily

crush a wasp between one's fingernails, so in the same way the body of

the wasplike demon Hiranyakasipu has been ripped apart by the wonderful

pointed nails on your beautiful lotus hands." (from the

Dasavatara-stotra composed by Jayadeva)

Tvayi Rakshathi Rakshakai: Kim Anyai:,Tvayi Cha Arakshati Rakshakai: Kim Anyai:,Ithi Nischita Dhee: Srayaami Nityam,Nruhareh: Vegavathee Tataasrayam Tvam!

"O kamasikha Narasimha! you are sarva sakthan. When you are

resolved to protect some one, where is the need to seek the protection

of anyone else? When you are resolved not to protect some one, which

other person is capable of protecting us?. There is no one. Knowing

this fundamental truth, I have resolved to offer my saranagati at your lotus feet alone that rest at the banks of Vegavathi river." (Kamasika Ashtakam by Vedanta Desika)

Aadi Aadi Agam Karandhu,Isai Paadi Paadi Kanner Malgi,Engum Naadi Naadi Narasinga Endru,Vaadi Vaadum Il Vaazh Noothale!

"I will dance and melt for you, within my heart, to see you, I will

sing in praise of you with tears in joy, I will search for Narasimha

and I am a householder who still searches to reach you(to attain

Salvation)." Mala Mukherjee --- On Mon, 4/5/09, BalaKrishnaMurthy Ramaraju <dr.balakrishnamurthy.ramaraju wrote:BalaKrishnaMurthy Ramaraju <dr.balakrishnamurthy.ramaraju AATHREYA - NARASIMHAamericanhinduassociation, bharatkaguru, editor, "Army Of Ram Tamil Branch"

Hi sadhakas, I am your wellwisher , please i request you all not to enchant the below or any mantra without guru upadesam. Please dont post the maha mantras. If you people want maha mantras I can buy some tantras published by chukhamba publishers and I can copy paste. But for your kind info, every mantra is locked(keelanam). So that mantra has to be unlocked or it must come from unlocked parampara. that is called Utkeelanam(unlock ). That is possible for Guru only. He will take all good or bad efforts for the mantra. The mantra below posted is Nrusimha Anustubha maha matram. This is the form of Rudra. For every, mantra there is some niyamams(Rules). For some mantras there are some saapas(curse) also. Example take gayatri mantram, its needs saapa vimochana mantras.It is having 3 sapas from Brahma, Vasista and Visamitra. so if you do gayatri

mantra, you have to do 3 sapavimochana mantras for gayatri. so please dont chant any mantras without any rules.Please try to understand my expression.

"So what if we get the curse or ill effect.

So what if couple of births are dammed due to incorrect chanting. "

Hi my friend ,

Saapas are many types. Like sarpa saapam, brahmana saapam, devatha saapam, upasanadevatha saapam ,.....

Some saapas will be carry forwarded to our next genarations also. Because of some saapas total family will suffer. Its not only for upasaka, the total family will be suffered.

Hi

 

Sir i respect your feeling and expression. But then after every mantra is recited we normally ask for forgives if i did the thing incorrectly.

 

So what if we get the curse or ill effect. The mantra gives us the zeal to go one step towards God. The God you loves us will know that we are doing things incorrectly and will send us an Guru so that we chant it correctly.

 

Rather than not doing anything and getting further away from God. It is better we chant these mantras.

 

So what if couple of births are dammed due to incorrect chanting. But then ultimately we will reach the God in the next life. Any how hundred of births has gone in fullfilling our desires and satisfy our needs. Let couple we wasted in taking his name.

 

When the student is ready the Guru will come.

 

Sir this is not personal, but hinduism is taught us to be free thinkers.

 

Please correct me if i have gone wrong. After all the soul is here to know and rectify its mistake.

 

Jai GuruDev.

Dear Narasimha Rao garu,

 

I did not see any conditions imposed on Gayatri mantra, with or without any guru's initiation gayatri mantra can be recited. Gayatri mantra is a universal well being mantra, it is a mantra that brings light into our lives.

 

Pundit Shri Ram Sharma who established Gayatri pariwar encourages people to chant Gayatri mantra, so does Sant Keshav Das, Please read Sant Keshav Das's book "Gayatri the highest meditation", I did not see any restrictions in it, my mantra guru also never told me about any such restrictions.

 

There are may secret mantras that are meant for specific purposes, only great siddhas have access to them and they are controlled by them, this control does not apply to all mantras atleast for Gayatri mantra. Some gurus keep confusing people to gain some attention and control people we have to be careful what they say and use our own contemplation, reasoning and judgement.

 

God Bless,

Om Namah Shivaya,

Divakar.

AATHREYA - LORD NARASIMHA JAYANTHI

 

Lord Narasimha , God in the Form of Man-Lion

Jayanthi , Day of Incarnation of Vishnu as Man-Lion

Jayanthi , Appearance Day , Day Of Incarnation

Nara Simha Appeared in Month of Vaisaakh , May

Bright Half on Fourteenth Day

Happens to be this year 2009 , May Seventh Day

Fifth Day of week that is Thursday

Beginning of night at the end of day

Setting Sun glowing red in the western sky

So is NaraSimha , Ugra Form very angry

Come to destroy the animosity

Ego of Hiranyakasip , Vishnu’s sworn enemy

In search of God every where , mind and heart empty.

Prahlaada , Hiranyakasip’ s young son

Sees God Vishnu Every where , mind and heart full of joy

Hiranyakasip torn between his enemity

To Vishnu and to Prahlaad , love of paternity

Prahlaad caught between loyalty

To his father and to Vishnu , Devotion in all its totality

Hiranyakasip , personification of arrogance

Prahlaada , personification of innocence

God on the side of children , meek , weak and innocence.

Ego is destroyed and innocence and devotion rewarded .

Ugra Narasimha , The Angry Dod Became LakshmiNarasimha , God of Bliss.
