Raghvendra Vijaya Sandhi-2

(Prahlad)

Background

It is strongly believed that Sri Rayaru is the Avataara of Pralhadraja and Vyasaraja.
Sri Guru JagannathDasaru has described the Prahlad Avataara in the second sandhi of SriRaghavendraVijaya.
 

Meaning

Daityaas became too powerful and Hiranyakashyapu was torturing all saadhus,brahmins and good people.Bhoodevi could not tolerate the injustice of Hiranyakashyapu.She requested Brahma to save humanity and Sanatana Dharma.Brahma prayed Vishnu and briefed the situation.In turn Vishnu-SriHari asked Shankukarna(Vishwaksena) to take birth on Bhooloka in the womb of Kayaadhu and Hiranyakashyapu and promised that the Lord will always be with him.

One day the father Hiranyakashyapu asked his son Prahlada what he has learnt so far?.Prahlada replied that SriHari-Lord Vishnu is the omnipotent and omniscient.No one is equal to Vishnu.Hiranyakashyapu became wild,as he could not tolerate the praise of Vishnu and tried to kill his own son Prahlada.With the divine shelter of SriHari poison became Amruta and all the evils proved good and favourable to Prahlada.

Hiranyakashyapu asked Prahlada is your Hari is in this pillar. Prahlada replied yes.Hiranyakashyapu broke the pillar with his gada.SriHari came out of the pillar in NarasimhaAvataara,took Hiranyakashyapu on his lap and torn the stomach with his nails and killed Hiranyakashyapu.

Prahlada ruled with nobility and dharma.Never hurted the feelings of anybody.
Performed Ashwamedhayaaga.Prahladarajaru became Vyasarajaru and RaghavendrarRayaru.
