Nrsimha
by Madhavendra Puri dasa
.
om namo bhagavate narasimhaya
namas tejas-tejase avir-avirbhava
vajra-nakha vajra-damshtra karmasayan
randhaya randhaya tamo grasa grasa om svaha;
abhayam abhayam atmani bhuyishtha om kshraum
"I offer my respectful obeisances unto Lord Nrisimhadeva, the source of all power. O my Lord who possesses nails and teeth just like thunderbolts, kindly vanquish our demonlike desires for fruitive activity in this material world. Please appear in our hearts and drive away our ignorance so that by Your mercy we may become fearless in the struggle for existence in this material world."
(Srimad-Bhagavatam 5.18.8)
