Laxmi Narasimha Bhagwan is the depiction of the fourth and most fearsome Avatar of Shri Maha Vishnu i.e. Lord Narasimha along with his eternal consort Maha Laxmi Devi.
Lord Vishnu took the form of Narasimha and came to Prithvi to protect his Bhakt Prahalad from his father Hiranakashyap who was a non-believer and an unkind king towards his subjects.
