<span class="link">[[Vanisource:SB 7.8.27|SB 7.8.27, Translation and Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="trans text"><p style="display: inline;">When Hiraṇyakaśipu was freed from the hands of Nṛsiṁha-deva, he falsely thought that the Lord was afraid of his prowess.

<div class="purport text"><p>When a sinful man enjoys material facilities, foolish people sometimes think, "How is it that this sinful man is enjoying whereas a pious man is suffering?" By the will of the Supreme, a sinful man is sometimes given the chance to enjoy the material world as if he were not under the clutches of material nature, just so that he may be fooled. A sinful man who acts against the laws of nature must be punished, but sometimes he is given a chance to play, exactly like Hiraṇyakaśipu when he was released from the hands of Nṛsiṁha-deva. Hiraṇyakaśipu was destined to be ultimately killed by Nṛsiṁha-deva, but just to see the fun, the Lord gave him a chance to slip from His hands.</p>
