Brief story:
Lord Narasimha is one of the most popular manifestations of Lord Vishnu. Once upon a time there lived a
demon called Hiranyakasipu. He undertook a hard peneance for several years and got a boon from Brahma
that he will never be killed by an animal or human; he will not die both on the day and night; he will not
be killed by a living as well as non-living thing; he will neither die inside or outside of the house; he will

never die on the earth or in the sky; he will not face his death in the daytime as well as in the night time.
While contemplating on this tricky boon, he never knew that he could be killed in a clever manner later.
Hiranyakasipu had a highly pious son named Prahlad who was devoted to Lord Mahavishnu from birth.
Hiranyakasipu had a great contempt for Lord Vishnu since he had earlier killed his beloved brother
Hiranyaksha through an earlier incarnation of Varaha (The boar form). Angered by Prahlad’s unwavering
faith in Lord Vishnu, he troubled Prahlad in all possible ways and attempted to kill him. At a crucial time,
Lord Narasimha emanated from the pillar and killed Hiranyakasipu in full conformity with the boon he had
received. Thus, Hiranyakasipu was killed in the evening on the doorstep in the laps of the Lord with the
weapon of his nails.
