Origin of Pratyuangira
As mentioned in Markandeya Purana: In the beginning of the Satya yuga, the Lord Narasimha, an avatar of Vishnu, killed the demon King Hiranyakashipu by tearing up his body and drinking his blood. Because of the anger in Hiranyakashipu's body and the malicious effects of human blood, Narasimha was drunk on rage and could not be stopped. To calm him down with the power of compassion, Lord Shiva came down as Sarabeswara, a bird-animal-human hybrid. Upon seeing this, Lord Narasimha created Gandaberunda, a two headed-bird that was Sarabeswara's opposite. Upon seeing this, Sarabeshwara turned into Bhairava (Shiva's fierce form) and created the goddess Pratyuangira from his third eye. They praised her as she calmed Narasimha down by sitting on his lap.
Pratyuangira appeared as she was flying in the sky. Her form was powerful, she was bigger than the other gods and goddesses. Her head was above the whole sky and her feet well into the down from a far distance, she had a thousand faces of lions, 2,000 eyes and possibly 2,000 hands with multiple weapons and a thousand tongues.It is believed her creation came with thunder and lightning and as soon as Narasimha Swami saw her huge figure, he realized the mission of his role and turned out from Ugra(roaring) Narsimha avataram to Shanta Narasimha immediately.
Atharvana Kali
Pratyuangira is also known as “Atharvana Bhadrakali “ . From thousands of years it is been followed by sages and Goddess’s devotees that she is the only Goddess to eradicate and destroy the effects of black magic or voodoo or possessed bodies in bringing them to sublime state. Although the history predicts the use of such skills during war time to protect the land and people from enemies.
