It is said, “Karani ka phal payega. ” As you sow, so shall you reap. How did Prahlad come to have faith in God? Once some kittens were born inside a potter's earthen pitcher. The potter was not aware of this and placed this pitcher, along with other raw pottery, inside a kiln. After some days when the fire of the kiln was extinguished, the kittens were seen playing inside the pitcher. Prahlad was amazed to see that they were alive, even though the pitcher in which they were lying had been burning in the kiln for days. Who had kept them alive? Then he believed that there is some Power which saved the kittens. He even defied his father, King Hiranyakashipu, who claimed that no power was greater than himself. His father tormented Prahlad a lot, so God finally killed him. Whenever devotees were tormented, God protected them. So it is said that God is omnipresent and the same power is within all of us. Great divine personalities incarnate from time to time to manifest that power. He is already present but one needs divine vision to recognize him.
