Narasimha Gayatri Mantra

Narasimha Gayatri Mantra

Lord Vishnu took the Narasimha avatar to save his devotee, Prahlad, from his evil father, the demon, Hiranyakashipu. Hiranyakashipu tried to kill Prahlad many times as he was angry that his son worshipped Vishnu. Narasimha is a fierce form of Vishnu, half-man and half-lion. The Narasimha Gayatri Mantra protects one against enemies, criminals, and negative influences. It is a very beneficial mantra that children can chant, too. It also protects us from evil-eyes and jealousy. The best time to chant it is Ekadasi thithi and Saturdays. It should be recited 11, 108, or 1008 times.
