Appearance of Lord Narsimha

Lord Narasimha deva is the one who destroys the obstacles in the path of devotion. He is very kind and most merciful to his devotees. Lord Narasimhadeva appeared in the Shukla Chaturdashi of Vaishakh month(fourteenth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Vaisakha). His appearance day is celebrated by the devotees with great pomp and show to please Lord Narasimhadeva. They seek blessings from the Lord so that they can progress in spirtual devotion and achieve the highest aim of serving the Lotus feet of Sri Sri Radha Krishna.

His appearance and disappearance is inconceivable for us. As stated in Bhagavad Gita that he had appeared from his internal energy to protect his devotees and annihilate the Demons. We should always understand the tattva behind the appearance of Lord Krishna in the form of a common human or animal. His incarnation in  the form of tortoise, fish, lion etc is divine and transcendental .

Amazingly Lord Narasimha Dev is one among the popular incarnation of the Lord. This pastime is revealed in the seventh canto of Srimad Bhagavatam . Narsimha means the one who has appeared in the form of half man and half lion, Lord Narasimha Deva has appeared to protect his dearest devotee Prahalad Maharaj from his demonic father Hiranyakashipu.
