(Lord Ramacandra's visit to the Deity of
Ahobalam Nrsimha, as described in the
47th chapter of the Harivansa Purana)
(The glorious Rama once visited Ahobala Temple
at Pratapvan where He
saw the deity of Lord Nrsimha.
He offered His obeisance to Lord Kamalapati and prayed as follows:)
(O Govinda, Kesava, Janardana, Vasudeva, Visvavisvesa,, Madhusudana, Visvarupa,
Sri Padmanabha, Purusottama, Puskaraksa,
Narayana, Acyuta. O Lord Nrsimha, I offer my respectful obeisance unto
You again and again.)
(I have taken shelter of Lord Nrsimha unto whose
lotus feet demigods, prominent yogis, gandharvas, vidyadharas and
kinnaras, are constantly offering their obeisance.)
(I have taken shelter of Lord Nrsimha by whose
mercy people receive all the vedas, the essence of all scriptures,
knowledge, strength, reputation and wealth.)
(You are Lord Brahma, Lord Siva and the Best
Person Lord Narayana. You are the master of the Marutas and You
are the sun, the moon, air and the fire as well as Marutganas. I offer my
obeisance unto You.)
(I offer my obeisance unto Lord Nrsimha who is
the creator, the maintainer and the destroyer of the entire universe.
Although You perform all of these three acts simultaneously, You are
completely beyond these activities. You are the all-pervading, unlimited
and supreme spirit.)
(Praying this way the best of the Raghus, Lord
Ramacandra, worshipped Lord Hari. At that time the demigods showered a
rain of flowers on the head of Lord Nrsimhadeva.)
(These prayers were compiled by Lord Rama
Himself as mentioned in Pancamrta by Manu. Those who
read this will live in Heaven for ever.)
