The Exposition of Nṛsiṁha Worship-Mantras, Nyāsa, Mudrās, Yantras, Kavaca, and Nṛsiṁha Gāyatrī
नरसिंहं महाभीमन कालानलसमप्रभम् । आन्त्रमालाधरं रौद्रं कण्ठहारेण भूषितम् ॥ ५२ ॥
narasiṃhaṃ mahābhīmana kālānalasamaprabham | āntramālādharaṃ raudraṃ kaṇṭhahāreṇa bhūṣitam || 52 ||
Созерцаю Нарасимху — грознейшего, сияющего, как огонь Калы при разрушении мира; яростного, носящего гирлянду из внутренностей и украшенного ожерельем на шее.
Narada (in a descriptive/recitative passage praising Narasiṃha)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: raudra
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It presents Narasiṃha as the irresistible, time-transcending protector—His terrifying form symbolizes the destruction of adharma and the burning away of fear, ego, and inner impurities.
By vividly meditating on the Lord’s form and attributes, the devotee practices smaraṇa (remembrance) and dhyāna—core bhakti methods that convert fear into surrender and trust in Viṣṇu’s protection.
The verse primarily serves as a dhyāna-style description used in stotra/japa contexts; it reflects disciplined recitation and visualization rather than a direct lesson in a specific Vedāṅga like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa.
