SD 7.10.10 "I offer respects to the Lord, full of six qualities, the purusa, the great soul, the killer of all miseries, the wonderful lion and man who is Brahman and Paramatma."
Nrsimha-tapani Upanisad ~ rtam satyam param brahma purusam nr-kesari-vigraham
The form of Nrsimha is the Supreme Brahman, the purusa, knowledge and truth.
Aisvarya Kadambini 1.5 "All glories to the most merciful Sri Govinda, the son of Nanda, who appeared from a pillar in the fierce form of Sri Nrsimha to remove the distress of His devotee Prahlada by killing His enemy Hiranyakasipu."
O
Lion Lord,
please
roar, roar, roar,
very
loud,
show
your angry eyes
and
your ferocious mouth
and
with your nails like chisels
cut
through those impediments
of
evil activities
residue
of many lifetimes
inhabiting
my mind
causing
to the heart
miserliness
and weakness
without
the qualities
to
become a worthy recipient
of
the shower of mercy
poured
by the saintly teachers.
O
Lion Lord,
please
roar, roar, roar,
very
loud
show
your sharp teeth
and flaring nostrils
with
your breath laden
with
anger, please blow away
those
seeds of aversion
which
cause the unwanted
strong
pillars of the ego
to
boast, ridicule others
harboring
the illusions
of
superiority, prestige
and
power.
O
Lion Lord, please let your
deafening
laughing roar
reach
everywhere, inside and without,
please
come, O Killer of miseries,
walk
down the road
to
the city of dualities,
to
scare away the desires, (1)
the
impressions of the subtle body,
that
impede me
to
give happiness to others
to
remove all that is vicious
and
to see as You see
with
equal vision.
O
Lion Lord, please,
as
gently as you only can
place
your protecting paw
on
my head
against
the attacks of pretenders,
protect
my spiritual and material
achievements
protect
the steps of this errant
of
karma,
so
can walk steadily out
of
the dreadful cycle.
