Oh Lord Supreme ! Prahlada was pierced by sharp weapons; he was trampled upon byhosts of elephants of the quarters, many a time; he was bitten by huge poisonoussnakes; he was starved at times and given poison to eat; he was even pushed down from the highest mountaintops. But as he had placed his full faith in Thee he did not feel any suffering as his mind was completely fixed on Thee.
