Hiranyakashipu ke vardaan ki har shart ka paalan karte hue Bhagwan Vishnu ne aadha nar-aadha sinh roop dhara (Bhagwat Puran).
Anokha vardaan
Hiranyakashipu ne Brahma ji se vardaan liya tha ki use na manushya maar sake na pashu, na din mein na raat mein, na ghar ke andar na baahar, na dharti par na aakash mein, aur na kisi astra-shastra se.
Khambhe se prakat
Krodhit raja ne Prahlad se poochha — "Kahaan hai tera Vishnu? Kya is khambhe mein bhi hai?" Prahlad ne kaha, "Haan, wo har jagah hain." Raja ne khambhe par prahaar kiya aur usme se Bhagwan Narasimha prakat hue.
Dharm ki raksha
Sandhya samay (na din na raat), dehri par (na andar na baahar), apni jaangh par (na dharti na aakash) rakh kar, nakhon se (na astra na shastra) Bhagwan ne Hiranyakashipu ka ant kiya. Prahlad ki stuti se unka krodh shaant hua.
