Gaura-Narasimha

Dear Swami Gaurangapada Maharaja,
Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna! Please accept my humble obeisances.

i have the following question: Many devotees, as a part of their daily sadhana, worship Lord Narasimhadeva for protection from outer enemies as well as inner enemies in the form of material desires. Me myself am not so much attracted towards the worship of Lord Narasimha, though i do so anyway as a matter of respect and appreciation for this particular Incarnation of the Lord. i feel like better worship the Original Incarnation Lord Gauranga-Krishna, Who can fulfil the same purpose as any of His other incarnation (being His Expansions) can. For example: when i feel being in some danger, i remember the Pastime of Lord Gauranga protecting His Dear Lord Nityananda by invoking His Sudarshana Chakra, when He was attacked by Jagai and Madhai and i pray for His protection.

So my question is: What role does the worship of Lord Narasimha play in our Sampradaya and in the spiritual life of a devotee of Lords Nityananda Gauranga and Radha-Krishna? Why not to pray always to the Fully Complete Original Lord Gauranga-Krishna for some special function of His Other Incarnation, when in Himself is all included?

Thank You very much,
Matus
