Receiving the mercy of Lord Narasimha
\nSrila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has written five beautiful prayers in \u201cSri Navadvipa Bhava Taranga\u201d for receiving the mercy of Lord Narasimha. These prayers are certainly assurance to all sincere devotees that the worship of Lord Narasimha is purely in the line of aspiring love and devotion to Sri Sri Radha and Krsna. Those prayers are as follows.
\ne dusta hrdaye kama adi ripu chaya
\nkutinati pratisthasa sathya sada raya
\nhrdaya-sodhana ara krsnera vasana
\nnrsimha-carane mora ei to\u2019 kamana
\nWithin my sinful heart the six enemies headed by lust perpetually reside, as well as duplicity, the desire for fame, plus sheer cunning. At the lotus feet of Lord Narasimha, I hope that He will mercifully purify my heart and give me the desire to serve Lord Krsna.
\nkandiya nrsimha-pade magibo kakhana
\nnirapade navadvipe jugala-bhajana
\nbhaya bhaya paya yan\u2019ra darsane se hari
\nprasanna hoibo kabe more daya kari
\nWeeping, I will beg at the lotus-feet of Lord Narasimha for the benediction of worshipping Radha and Krsna in Navadvipa, perfectly safe and free from all difficulties. When will this Lord Hari, Whose terrible form strikes fear into fear itself, ever become pleased and show me His mercy?
\nyadyapi bhisana murti dusta-jiva-prati
\nprahladadi krsna-bhakta-jane bhadra ati
\nkabe va prasanna ho\u2019ye sa krpa-vacane
\nnirbhaya karibe ei mudha akincane
\nEven though Lord Narasimha is terrifying toward the sinful souls, He offers great auspiciousness unto the devotees of Lord Krsna headed by Prahlada Maharaja. When will He be pleased to speak words of compassion unto me, a worthless fool, and thereby make me fearless?
\nsvacchande baiso he vatsa sri-gauranga-dhame
\njugala-bhajana hau rati hau name
\nmama bhakta-krpa-bale vighna jabe dura
\nsuddha cite bhajo radha-krsna-rasa-pura
\nHe will say, \u201cDear child! Sit sown freely and live happily here in Sri Gauranga-dhama. May you nicely worship the Divine Couple, and may you develop loving attachment for Their Holy Names. By the mercy of My devotees, all obstacles are cast far away. With a purified heart, just perform the worship of Radha and Krsna, for such worship overflows with sweet nectar.\u201d
\nei boli\u2019 kabe mora mastaka-upara
\nsviya sri-carana harse dharibe isvara
\namani jugala-preme sattvika vikare
\ndharaya lutibo ami sri-nrsimha-dvare
\nSaying this, will that Lord delightedly place His own divine lotus-feet upon my head? I will experience sublime love for the Divine Couple Radha-Krsna and undergo the ecstatic transformations called sattvika. Falling on the ground, I will roll about at the door of Sri Narasimha\u2019s temple.
