Lifting with His tusk the earth which
was submerged, He rose up from the
nether world and looked resplendent.
There, (in the nether world) the Lord,
can withstand,
whose prowess none
killed the prime demon (Hiranyaksha)*
who attacked Him with his mace and
obstructed Him.
क्ष्मामुत्क्षिपन्तं गजलीलयाऽङ्ग
विरिञ्चिमुख्या उपतस्थुरीशम् ॥
The creator and other (sages and gods)
extolled the. Master who was lifting up

THE STORY OF HIRANYAKSHA: Once Sanaka
and other sons of Brahma went to Vishnu's abode in
Vaikuntha to worship Him and they were prevented
from entering the sanctum by Jaya and Vijaya, the
door-keepers of Vishnu. For this rudeness, Jaya and
Vijaya were cursed to be born as demons. They are
first born as the prime demon-twins, Hiranyakasipu
and Hiranyaksha, in the womb of Diti. The latter is
slain by the Lord in the Varaha avatara and the
former in the Narasimha avatara. They are again
born as Ravana and Kumbhakarna to be slain in the
Rama avatara and once again as Sisupala and
Danthavaktra to be slain in the Krishna avatara.
These successive encounters with the Lord and death
at His hands purify them and they ultimately regain
the divine state which was theirs before their fall.
