The Exposition of Nṛsiṁha Worship-Mantras, Nyāsa, Mudrās, Yantras, Kavaca, and Nṛsiṁha Gāyatrī
द्वाभ्यां कराभ्यां च रिपोर्जानुमस्तकपीडनम् । ऊर्द्ध्वीकृताभ्यां बाहुभ्यां आन्त्रमालाधरं विभुम् ॥ ६६ ॥
dvābhyāṃ karābhyāṃ ca riporjānumastakapīḍanam | ūrddhvīkṛtābhyāṃ bāhubhyāṃ āntramālādharaṃ vibhum || 66 ||
دو ہاتھوں سے وہ دشمن کے گھٹنے اور سر کو دبا کر کچل دیتا ہے؛ اور اوپر اٹھائے ہوئے دو بازوؤں سے آنتوں کی مالا دھारण کرنے والے اس وِبھُو کو تھامے رہتا ہے۔
Narada (teaching in a technical/descriptive register consistent with Vedanga-style iconographic enumeration)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: vira
Secondary Rasa: bhayanaka
It presents a dhyāna-style visualization where the deity’s posture signifies mastery over hostile forces (inner and outer), emphasizing divine supremacy (vibhu) and the awe-inspiring power that protects dharma.
By giving concrete visual attributes, it supports bhakti through focused contemplation (dhyāna) and deity-form remembrance—key aids for steady devotion during pūjā and mantra practice.
It reflects applied technical description used in ritual contexts—murti-lakṣaṇa and dhyāna-lakṣaṇa—supporting correct visualization and worship procedure (a practical, śāstra-aligned aid akin to Vedanga-style precision).
