Question. It is said that when the Lord kills someone, that person becomes liberated. So how is it that when Hiranyakashipu was killed, still he did not get liberated because of being killed by Narasimhadeva? Answer.
It is not necessary that whenever any incarnation of the Lord kills, that leads to liberation. The contact with the Lord always purifies, but it is not necessary that there will be liberation. It is a distinct feature of Krishna that when he kills, then liberation happens.
Now, of course, other incarnations also when they kill, liberation can happen, but it does not necessarily have to happen. Now, in the case of Hiranyakashipu specifically, there is another factor also involved that Jaya and Vijaya had been cursed to live three lives on the earth and because they had to live three lives on the earth, so they had to go through those three births and that Brahmana curse which was minimized by Lord Vishnu’s prayers and which they had to fall from Vaikuntha for three lives only, but that was another principle that was there and sometimes when two principles conflict, then there is a resolution that comes up. So, Hiranyakashipu is being killed by Narasimhadeva and like that, the next incarnations, Ram’s killing and then Krishna’s killing, there is a progression and those three progressively eventually led to the liberation of Hiranyakashipu.
Now, Vishnupuram also makes almost significant point that it was explicitly that Shupala and Antavakra, they recognized Krishna to be Vishnu and they accepted his supremacy just before they died and that was also significant factor, but basically, the point is that they had to fall for three lives and when Krishna eventually killed them, then that Krishna’s killing leads to liberation. So, that’s how they became liberated at that time. Thank you.
