    Prahlada addresses Lord Nrisimha and praises His glories. He says that even the most powerful beings like Brahma and sages continuously try to praise the Lord's qualities but can never fully do so. Prahlada seeks refuge in the Lord and asks to be engaged in His service, knowing that this is the only way to achieve liberation from the cycle of birth and death in the material world.
