Ugra Nrsimha Dhyana



Ugra Nrsimha Dhyana

"Hiranyakaśipu studied the form of the Lord, trying to decide who the form of Nrsimhadeva standing before him was. The Lord's form was extremely fearsome because of His angry eyes, which resembled molten gold; His shining mane, which expanded the dimensions of His fearful face; His deadly teeth; and His razor-sharp tongue, which moved about like a dueling sword. His ears were erect and motionless, and His nostrils and gaping mouth appeared like caves of a mountain. His jaws parted fearfully, and His entire body touched the sky. His neck was very short and thick, His chest broad, His waist thin, and the hairs on His body as white as the rays of the moon. His arms, which resembled flanks of soldiers, spread in all directions as He killed the demons, rogues and atheists with His conchshell, disc, club, lotus and other natural weapons."

Também no Srimad Bhagavatam 7.9.5 Srila Prabhupada explica:
"Quando o Senhor Nrsimhadeva apareceu, todos os devotos ficaram destemidos. O recurso de que o devoto se vale para tornar-se destemido é cantar o santo nome do Senhor Nrsimhadeva. Yato yato yami tato nrsimhah: onde quer que estejamos, devemos sempre pensar em Nrsimhadeva. Assim, o devoto do Senhor jamais sentirá medo."
