Srimad Bhagavatam — Saptama Skandha, Shloka 15
Nṛsiṁhadeva Appears from the Pillar and Slays Hiraṇyakaśipu
तदैव तस्मिन्निनदोऽतिभीषणो बभूव येनाण्डकटाहमस्फुटत् । यं वै स्वधिष्ण्योपगतं त्वजादय: श्रुत्वा स्वधामात्ययमङ्ग मेनिरे ॥ १५ ॥
tadaiva tasmin ninado ’tibhīṣaṇo babhūva yenāṇḍa-kaṭāham asphuṭat yaṁ vai sva-dhiṣṇyopagataṁ tv ajādayaḥ śrutvā sva-dhāmātyayam aṅga menire
就在那时，柱内发出极其可怖的轰鸣，仿佛震裂了宇宙的外壳。亲爱的尤迪希提罗啊，那声音传至梵天等诸天的居处；诸天听后以为：“哎呀，如今我们的星界正在毁灭！”
As we sometimes become very much afraid at the sound of a thunderbolt, perhaps thinking that our houses will be destroyed, the great demigods like Lord Brahmā feared the thundering sound that came from the pillar in front of Hiraṇyakaśipu.
FAQs
It describes the moment a terrifying roar erupted, so powerful it seemed to crack the universe’s shell, startling even Brahmā and the other gods in their heavenly abodes.
Because the roar was so intense that it reached their own realms; they mistook the overwhelming divine sound for a cosmic upheaval threatening their domains.
God’s protective intervention can appear fearsome and disruptive to the world, yet it is purposeful—meant to uphold dharma and protect the sincere devotee.
