Andhaka

 In the Vāmana Purāṇa, the story of Andhaka's birth remains same. Andhaka was the son of Hiraṇyākṣa and cousin of Prahlāda. Andhaka and Prahlāda, along with their army defeated the Devas, making Prahlāda the king of the three worlds. Sometime later, Prahlāda battled Vishnu, but lost the battle due to a curse the sages have placed upon him. After his loss, he appointed Andhaka as king and successfully acquires Vishnu's forgiveness. Upon returning, Andhaka tries to make him king again, but is met with refusal. At one point, Mahiṣāsura and Tārakāsura are killed by the gods, a feat which Andhaka thought was impossible.

After this incident, Andhaka came to desire a beautiful wife and was informed about Parvati, said to be the most beautiful woman in the world. Unaware that Parvati is his mother, Andhaka makes his way to Shiva's abode. There he tried to abduct Parvati, but she assumed a hundred forms and knocked him unconscious in battle. Andhaka fled back to Pātāla with the intention to recuperate and make another attempt at procuring Parvati.

Prahlāda tried to dissuade him. He revealed to Andhaka his true origins about being born from the sweat of Shiva when Parvati covered his eyes. His explanation falls on deaf ears and he fails to persuade the Asura. Andhaka attacked Shiva and the other deities with his army, most of whom were obliterated. Andhaka then disguised himself as Shiva to fool Parvati, but she managed to recognised him and hid among her servants. Unable to find her, Andhaka returns to the battle.

Kārttikeya and Gaṇeśa, accompanied by the Gaṇas, destroyed Andhaka's chariot. Shiva engaged him in battle and pierced his heart, but Andhaka was able to recover and strike Shiva with his mace. The blood that fell on the ground from the wound gave rise to the eight forms of Bhairava.

Shiva impaled Andhaka on his trident and lifted him upon it. The sweat that emanated from Shiva gave rise to a girl and a boy of the colour of charcoal, who proceed to consume Andhaka's blood before it falls onto the ground. Shiva names the girl Cārcikā and the boy Maṅgala. He holds Andhaka impaled on his trident for thousands of years, reducing his body to a mere skeletal appearance. Andhaka begged for forgiveness and began praising Shiva, upon which Shiva agreed to release him on the condition that he accept Parvati as his mother. Andhaka does so and also accepts Shiva as his father. He is forgiven and made a Gaṇa chief. Shiva takes him to the Mandara mountain where Parvati also blesses the same boon to him and he later becomes famous by the name of Bhṛṅgi.

Sudarshan Narasimha

Chakra in Front - Narasimha at Back - Vice Versa

A Normal Sub Deity in any of the Vishnu Temples Has This Fom

Once the demon Namuchi obtained a boon from Lord Brahma that he would not be killed by anything wet or dry. He then began to disturb the heavens and it's king, Indra. 


By the support of Lord Vishnu, King Indra destroyed the army of Namuchi who died in a cave in Sukshmakaram (small size), giving up his sthulakaram (physical manifestation). Indra dipped the Sudarshan Cakra in the foam of the ocean and sent it into the cave. From the middle of the Cakra, Lord Vishnu manifested Himself and destroyed the life breath or Pranavayuvu of the demon with the fire of His exhalation. This form of the Lord is known as Sudarshan Nrsimha.

Viprachitti

Viprachitti was the husband of Prahlad's aunt Holika, also known as Simhika. Prahlad's father's (Hiranyakashipu) sister, was married to the King of Kamrup, Viprachitti. Therefore, Viprachitti was Prahlad's uncle. 

After losing Holika, Viprachitti fumed with anger. And in a fit of rage, he attempted to kill Prahlad.

Viprachitti used his Mayavi Shakti to make Prahlad unconscious. Then he lifted him in his arms and threw him into the ocean. He was confident that the underwater beings would eat Prahlad alive.

Viprachitti failed in his attempt to kill Prahlad. The little boy was saved once again by Lord Vishnu, who threw his lotus into the ocean. And the lotus bloomed in a such a manner that it became a comforting couch for Prahlad, who lay peacefully on the sea bed. Subsequently, the God of the seas appeared before him after seeing Vishnu's lotus. He realised that the child was not an ordinary boy. Eventually, Goddess Lakshmi, who took birth from the ocean during Samudra Manthan, appealed to her father, the God of the Seas to return Prahlad to his mother, Kayadhu.

Desire


Nrsimhadeva sat His beloved devotee Prahlada on his lap, as if his own son. At that time, was developed in the vatsalya-prema, love and parental affection.
Both father and son enjoy the rasa or mellow. When the child sits in the lap of the father, the father and son enjoys it too. The pleasure is mutual.

But of the two, the child enjoys more than the father.So Nrsimhadeva developed a kind of greed: "How I can sit in the lap of my father and taste this rasa? In this embodiment, My father is a stone column, "then how I can enjoy it? Thereafter, after Nrsimhadeva, all incarnations have a father and a mother to realize that ambition .
