I'm Gonna Do What's Called a Pro Gamer Move

Notes

According to the Hindu Puranas, asura Hiranyakashipu, king of the Daityas, received a powerful boon from the deva Brahma. Brahma prophesied that Hiranyakashipu would not be killed by any human, deva, or animal – that he would not be killed by night or day, by anything animate or inanimate, on the ground nor in the air, within his residence nor outside of it. Later, one evening, when Hiranyakashipu mocks his son Prahlada's faith in deva Vishnu the Preserver, asking the boy if the supposedly omnipresent deity exists in the pillar next to him, Prahlada answers "He is in pillars, and he is in the least twig." In a fit of rage, Hiranyakashipu blasphemes Vishnu and breaks the pillar in a single strike. Suddenly, from the broken pillar, emerges Avatar Narasimha, who having the face of a tiger, is not quite an animal, having a man's body is not quite a human being, and being an avatar of Vishnu is not quite a god, assaults Hiranyakashipu on the threshold of the courtyard (neither indoors nor out) at the moment of twilight – not quite day and not quite night – and tears him apart with his claws, which are not exactly animate nor inanimate. He then spills Hiranyakashipu's guts onto his lap, neither on ground nor in the air.
