The deep saga behind the Dasavatar of Lord Mahavishnu is so awe-inspiring and mystifying that within one huge capsule many smaller ones encompass. From one main deity many others manifest and their role in the entire episode is truly gratifying. One such avatar of Vishnu is that of the Lord Narasimha. He took this form to relieve a poor child Prahlad who was his true devotee from the clutches of a demon father who tortured the child just because he hero-worshipped Sriman Narayana.
Lord Narasimha appeared to destroy Hiranyakshipu, Prahlad’s father and after killing the demon king, the lord’s ire could not be controlled. Fearing the worst, Lord Shiva took the form of Sarabeshwara and when Narasimha attacked him, he was further enraged and Sarabeshwara created a two headed creature to challenge Narasimha but in vain. Lord Shiva opened his third eye in a fit of rage and from it emerged Pratyangira Devi. She looked and acted fierce that Narasimha became silent and calmed down after she sat on his lap.
