शत्रू विनाशक नृसिंह महा मंत्र
(आपत्ति निवारक नृसिंह मंत्र l)
नरसिंह मंत्र ॐ उग्रं वीरं महाविष्णुं ज्वलन्तं सर्वतोमुखम्। नृसिंहं भीषणं भद्रं मृत्युमृत्युं नमाम्यहम् ॥
(हे क्रुद्ध एवं शूर-वीर महाविष्णु, तुम्हारी ज्वाला एवं ताप चतुर्दिक फैली हुई है। हे नरसिंहदेव, तुम्हारा चेहरा सर्वव्यापी है, तुम मृत्यु के भी यम हो और मैं तुम्हारे समक्षा आत्मसमर्पण करता हूँ।)
बिहार राज्य के पूर्णिया जिला के बनमनखी में सिकलीगढ़ धरहरा गांव हैं। बताया जाता है कि इसी गांव में भगवान नरसिंह अवतरित हुए थे और यही वो गांव है जहां भक्त प्रह्लाद की बुआ होलिका अपने भतीजे को गोद में लेकर आग में बैठी थी। मान्यता के मुताबिक यहीं से होलिकादहन की परंपरा की शुरुआत हुई थी।
ऐसी मान्यता है कि प्रह्लाद के पिता हिरण्यकश्यप का किला सिकलीगढ़ में था। गांव के बड़े बुजुर्गों की माने तो अपने परम भक्त प्रह्लाद की रक्षा के लिए खंभे से भगवान नरसिंह ने अवतार लिया था। मान्यता है कि उस खंभे का एक हिस्सा जिसे माणिक्य स्तंभ के नाम से जाना जाता है वो आज भी मौजूद है। इसी स्थान पर प्रह्लाद के पिता हिरण्यकश्यप का वध हुआ था। खास बात ये है कि माणिक्य स्तंभ 12 फीट मोटा है और करीब 65 डिग्री पर झुका हुआ है।

The fourth incarnation of Godhead Who appeared to deliver His devotee, the boy Prahlada Maharaja from the clutches of his demonic father Hiranyakasipu, Lord Nrsimha the half-man/half-lion incarnation appeared in the Satya Yuga. The rakshasa (demon) Hiranyakashipu, the elder brother of Hiranyaksha, was granted a powerful boon from Brahma, not allowing him to be killed by man or animal, inside or out, day or night, on earth or the stars, with a weapon either living or inanimate. Vishnu descended as an anthropomorphic incarnation, with the body of a man and head and claws of a lion. He then disembowels the rakshasa in the courtyard threshold of his house, at dusk, with his claws, while he lay on his thighs. The video is set to the Vedic prayer "Sri Nrsimha Pranama" from the Nrsimha Purana composed by The Great Sage Sri Vyasadeva, and is performed by Rasa featuring Yamuna Devi Dasi.
