AHOBALAM

Petrified at seeing him coming out of the excruciating ordeals, Hiranyakasipu demanded his son to show that Highest Him in the pillar pointing to one. Prahlad accepting the challenge asked him to put his might to test. Eying into rage he gave the pillar a blow. Then emerged there the mightiest Narasimha the most dreadful and dragging him to the portal dipped his sharp dagger-like nails into his stomach. And silenced his Ahambrahmasmi creed once for all. Prahlad's mighty evolved soul was thus saved. And he was installed as the ruler both over secular and spiritual worlds. And this happened here and this went by the name of Ahobalam, a fitting name for a place, where the mightiest might of Omnipotent was demonstrated, and what is more His Omnipresence was proved by that grand pillar, and is adored with great fervour.
