May He who exhibits a human-like form protect my knees. May He who is the original Cupid protect my thighs. He is the knower of all mantras and all mysteries, but He Himself is not visible. May He on whose hips rest all the universes protect my hips.

He is offered prayers by Lord Brahma, who has sprung from his own navel. May He who ripped apart the chest and abdomen of the great demon Hiranyaksha protect my waist, and may Lord Nrhari protect my navel. May He who is achieved by the perfect yogis protect my heart, and may Lord Hari protect my dwelling place. May the Lord, who bestows benedictions upon the demigods, protect my hands, and may He protect me from all sides. His arms are resplendent with transcendental weapons. He is the sustainer of the earth and the performer of unlimitedly wonderful activities.

May He whose face is beautiful as the full moon and who is offered prayers by Prahlada Maharaja protect my face. May Lord Narasimha, who is the knower of all sciences, protect my sense of taste.

May He who has the nose of a lion protect my nose, and may He whose face is very dear to the goddess of fortune protect my mouth. May Lord Nrhari, who is pleased by the prayers offered by the best of sages, protect my memory. May Lord Narasimha, whose eyes are the sun, and fire, protect my eyes. May He protect my speech and the results of my activities. Having seated Lord Narasimhadeva upon the lotus of one's heart, one should recite the following mantra: May Lord Narasimha, who protects all the planetary systems, protect my head.Īlthough the Lord is all-pervading, He hid Himself within a pillar. Garuda joyfully offers prayers with great reverence. His two feet are very attractive, and He is armed with various weapons such as the conch, disc, etc. He appears bedecked with rubies which are blazingly effulgent. He is the original cause of existence, beyond the mundane sphere, for the great demigods headed by Indra. He is dressed in a spotless yellow garment, which exactly resembles molten gold. His chest is resplendent like the lotus flower, and His arms are decorated with jewel-studded ornaments. The Lord has four arms, and His limbs are very soft. He is embraced by Lakshmidevi on his left side, and His form is the shelter of all opulences, both material and spiritual. His mouth is wide open, He has three eyes, and He is as radiant as the autumn moon. One should meditate on Lord Narasimha, Lord of the universe, seated upon a golden throne. It bestows upon one all opulences and can give one elevation to the heavenly planets or liberation. It is most pious, vanquishes all kinds of impediments, and provides one all protection. I shall now recite the Narasimha-kavaca, formerly spoken by Prahlada Maharaja.
