The pastime incarnation of the Supreme Lord Vishnu as half-man half-lion. He appeared in order to deliver the saintly child Prahlada from the persecutions of his father, Hiranyakashipu. When Hiranyakashipu demanded of Prahlada, “If your God is everywhere, is He also in this pillar?” Lord Nrisimha burst out of the pillar and ripped Hiranyakashipu apart.
