    From the book “Chaurasi-kosa Vraja Mandala Parikrama”:

    On a small hill overlooking Apsara-kunda is this temple containing a very ancient deity of Lord Narasingha, which is said to be about one thousand years old. The deity of Lord Narasingha can be seen ripping apart the demon Hiranyakasipu, with the boy saint Prahlada Maharaja standing nearby offering prayers to the Lord. The incarnation of Narasingha is the halfman half-lion form of Lord Vishnu who appeared from a stone pillar to save the five year old boysaint Prahlada Naharaja from the torment of his demonic father Hiranyakashipu.
