Lord Vishnu is one of the Trinity Gods (Brahma, Vishnu, Maheswara) with significant power in the universe. The lord has several avatars, and Narasimha is one of the most mighty manifestations of Lord Vishnu – the protector and controller of the universe. Narasimha is a fierce avatar that is always ready to fight and dismiss all evil, protecting his devotees from every negative energy and aspect of life. He is the embodiment of the conquest of good over evil.
With half human and half lion appearance, Lord Narasimha is said to have immense power with a scary attitude. Mythology described him in various forms with different postures and weapons. Following are 9-prime formations of Narasimha, collectively known as Nava-narasiṁha:
• Ugra-narasiṁha
• Kroddha-narasiṁha
• Vīra-narasiṁha
• Vilamba-narasiṁha
• Kopa-narasiṁha
• Yoga-narasiṁha
• Aghora-narasiṁha
• Sudarśana-narasiṁha
• Lakṣmī-narasiṁha
Since Lord Narasimha’s proactive nature and divine anger, a devotee must worship him with an extremely high level of attention compared to other deities.
