Narasimha is the fourth avatar of the Lord Vishnu. He is believed to have taken the avatar to destroy the demon King Hiranyakashyap . Lord Brahma order had offered him the boon of immortality on conditions that he cannot be killed by man or beast or devil or god. He cannot die during day or night nor with steel or stone or wood, indoors or outdoors, or on earth or sky, which meant that he could die nowhere and by no one .

Hiranyakashyap was furious at the devotion of his son ( Prahlaad )to Lord Vishnu. The king challenged his son to prove his devotion to Lord Vishnu .
He heated an iron pillar and then asked Prahlad to embrace it to confirm Lord Vishnu's presence. Prahlad rushed towards the pillar and squeezed it. The heated iron pillar did not burn him. The king in his fury hit the pillar with his sword. The pillar was transformed into Narasimha, an avatar of Lord Vishnu with a thundering sound.

Narasimha was half lion and half man. This happened during twilight hours, which was neither day nor night. He sat on the threshold of the court room which was neither inside nor outside and pierced his nails into the body of Hiranyakashyap and opened his stomach. The demon king was killed in a moment. Prahlad's belief in Lord Vishnu was rewarded and once again, the world was saved from a tyrant.
