आगमे विश्वासटिप्पन्यः

Religious observance falling on the fourteenth day of the bright, waxing half
of the lunar month of Baisakh
(April–May). This day is celebrated as
the birthday of Vishnu’s fourth avatar,
Narasimha, although his birthday is
different from those of Vishnu’s human
avatars. Narasimha is not human, but a
creature with the head and shoulders of
a lion, and the torso and lower body of
a man. He is not born in the usual
sense, but bursts forth fully formed
from a pillar, to destroy the demon
Hiranyakashipu and to protect his
devotee (bhakta) Prahlada. See also
Man-Lion avatar.
