Lord Narasimha's Appearance!

SB 2.7.14 (M Prji):

* Today's verse, the pastime of Narsimhadeva is described here
* 3 aspects stand out here
* 1) Hiranyakasipu is considered the best of the demons. He is an expert knower of the Vedas, but still in practical ways, he was envious of the Lord. So we can see here that theoretical knowledge of the vedas is not enough
...
* 2) Prahlada Maharaj, just 5 years old, his life was blissful, just in the shelter of the Lord
...
* 3) The Supreme Lord, He manifests as Narsimhadeva
* The Lord appears from the pillar to protect Prahlada Maharaj
...
