10. OM SURARIGHNE NAMA: ॐ सुरारिघ्ने नम:
Destroyed Devas' enemy Hiranya [kasipu].
Today [26th December 2008] is Margazh- Kettai [மார்கழி - கேட்டை] Thondaradipodi Alwar birth day. His compilation Thirumalai is very important. It is said thirumalai ariyadhar thirumalai ariyadhar! [திருமாலை அறியாதார் திருமாலை அறியாதார்].
We have already visited all the Nine Sri Narasimha sannidhi. We now visit the most difficult to reach, Ugra sthambam.[उग्र स्थम्बम]
It is situated at a very high place on the hill and it is believed to be the pillar from where Sri Narasimha emerged to kill Hiranyakasipu. Hiranyakasipu asked Prahalada to show Sri Hari in the pillar. To make the belief of Prahalada true, the Lord appeared instantly when Hiranyakasipu hit a pillar at random. This place is above Sri Jwala Narasimha sannidhi and the approach is very difficult. A steel rod is erected on the rock, holding which pilgrims remember Sri Narasimha.
