Purport
Purport by His Divine Grace
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
The meaning of this mantra, that I offer my humble obeisances to Lord Nrsimha, who is the source of bliss to Prahlada. But hiranyakasipu vaksaḥ, his father, Hiranyakasipu, on his chest the nails of His finger is just like chisel cutting the stone. The same Personality of Godhead is prahlada ahlada-dayine. Ahlada means pleasure.
For Prahlada, prakrsta-rūpena ahlada, Prahlada. A devotee is, being always in Krsna consciousness, naturally is in blissfulness. Still more when he meets or associates with his Lord, still more blissfulness. That is the position of the theist devotee. Whereas the atheist nondevotee, he is always feeling like a strike of the chisel, like, what do you call, stone-cutting chisel, nakha, nakhalaye, simply by the nails of His finger.
All right. [end]
