The following are the glorious verses
known as sacred armor of Nrisimha, which
is highly propitious, it removes the unexpected and accidental death of the worshiper.
Aruna speaks “ Oh! Bhagavan, Oh!
Devadevesha, kindly narrate the sacred armor of Nrisimha, which is highly
confidential.”
Lord Surya speaks “Oh! Puthra, I shall
narrate the glorious armor of Nrisimha which is highly auspicious, listening to
it would eradicate all the perils of the worshiper. It would remove evil effects caused by the
changes in the planetary positions, evil spell or curses, afflictions caused by
evil spirits, morbid element in the family, constant struggle, and troubles
from enemies, or evil deeds, and it removes the critical illnesses. Oh! Sarathe, it would destroy the dangers from
water and fire, threat from enemies and wild animals, it would protect the
worshiper while exploring through the dense wood and in the battle fields. Whoever reads or adorn the armor as ornament
would achieve success in all endeavors, protection, welfare, happiness, wealth,
abundance of grains, opulence, prosperity, virtuous offspring, honor from
kings, all the auspiciousness, progress of the clan, good health, and worshiper
would be freed from fear of unexpected death.
This is the sacred armor which removes the unexpected and accidental
deaths, recitation of these glorious verses for thousand and five times would
protect the worshiper from the fear of unexpected or accidental death completely.”
