Lord Narasimha as Gandabherunda and Lord Shiva as Sharabha As with Shiva Sarabha, Gandabherunda is not mentioned in the Bhagavata Purana, although he is mentioned in some Puranas and in certain regional scriptures in South India. For example, Sri Chinna Jeeyar has observed that Gandabherunda Narasimha Avatharam is mentioned in a minor text known as Nru Kanteerava abhyudhayam. Such references state that when Shiva manifested in his ferocious bird-form Sarabha to help contain the Lord's anger, that Sri Narasimha manifested his own, even more terrible bird-animal form, with two heads. |
