Śrī Nṛsiṁhadeva: His 108 Holy Names, Divine Pastimes, and the Life Histories of His Devotees
Behold the majesty of the Lord who protects all who take shelter of Him.
Fierce toward the wicked yet infinitely compassionate toward His devotees, Lord Śrī Nṛsiṁhadeva is one of the most extraordinary manifestations of the Supreme Lord. Bursting forth from a pillar in a form neither human nor animal, He appeared to protect Prahlāda Mahārāja, fulfil the words of His devotee, and proclaim an eternal truth: the Lord is everywhere, and He never abandons those who sincerely call upon Him.
This remarkable book presents the 108 holy names of Śrī Nṛsiṁhadeva, with a sacred pastime or devotional account illuminating the meaning and glory of each name. Every name reveals a distinctive aspect of the Lord’s divine personality—His limitless power, fearsome majesty, tender compassion, eternal beauty, and unfailing protection.
Drawn from the Purāṇas, sacred temple traditions, Sthala-purāṇas, classical Vaiṣṇava commentaries, and the histories of saints and ācāryas, this volume gathers an exceptional treasury of Nṛsiṁha-kathā from across Bhāratavarṣa.
Journey from the Lord’s thunderous appearance before Hiraṇyakaśipu to His gentle, peace-bestowing presence as Lakṣmī-Nṛsiṁha. Discover His celebrated manifestations at Ahobilam, Simhāchalam, and other holy places where His worship has flourished for centuries.
