Translation
Prahlāda Mahārāja was the best among exalted devotees. Anyone who with great attention hears this narration concerning the activities of Prahlāda Mahārāja, the killing of Hiraṇyakaśipu, and the activities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nṛsiṁhadeva, surely reaches the spiritual world, where there is no anxiety.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
One who reads attentively this story of Nṛsiṁha killing the king of the demons, after hearing the pure love of Prahlāda, greatest of devotees, attains the planet where there is no fear.
