**Title: Devotion and Miracles: Prahlad’s Test of Faith**
On August 5, 2024, in the episode of “Lakshmi Narayan,” Kayadu is seen helping her son Prahlad get ready. She is thrilled when Prahlad calls her “mom” after seven years of silence. She instructs him to chant “God Hiranyakashyap ki Jai” in front of everyone. The servant takes them to meet Hiranyakashyap, who eagerly anticipates hearing Prahlad’s words. Hiranyakashyap recalls the prediction made by Sukhracharya that Prahlad would speak after seven years. When asked how much time was left, Sukhracharya had mentioned only ten minutes.
Meanwhile, Lakshmi expresses her concern to Narayan about the situation. When Hiranyakashyap asks Prahlad to speak, Prahlad shocks everyone by singing Narayan’s song and chanting his mantras. This surprises and angers Hiranyakashyap, while Narayan and Lakshmi are pleased. Naradar enjoys Prahlad’s devotion. Despite Hiranyakashyap’s shock, Prahlad continues to chant Narayan’s name, explaining that Narayan is everything and the true god.
Hiranyakashyap, furious, demands to know who taught Prahlad these beliefs, as he had never left the palace. Naradar steps in, praising Prahlad and asking who could have taught him about Narayan. Prahlad confidently responds that Narayan is everywhere, and he experiences joy and equilibrium through his devotion. As Prahlad dances to Naradar’s song, Hiranyakashyap’s rage intensifies. Narayan tells Lakshmi that Prahlad is spreading happiness and that his devotees are pure and innocent.
Kayadu scolds Prahlad for invoking Hiranyakashyap’s enemy’s name, threatening to punish him. Hiranyakashyap insists that Prahlad must pay for his deeds and orders glass shreds to be spread on the floor. He demands that Prahlad dance on the glass. Kayadu pleads with him, saying Prahlad is just a child and shouldn’t be punished so harshly. Despite her pleas, Hiranyakashyap insists that Prahlad must endure the pain to learn his lesson.
Lakshmi laments to Narayan about the cruelty being inflicted on Prahlad, but Narayan reassures her that Prahlad is fighting for justice. Prahlad tells his mother that Narayan will protect his devotees and won’t let them be harmed. He steps on the glass shreds, which miraculously turn into flowers, demonstrating his unwavering faith and the power of Narayan. Naradar praises this miracle, while Hiranyakashyap dismisses it as an illusion, instructing Sukhracharya to teach Prahlad about Hiranyakashyap instead.
The episode ends with the display of Prahlad’s deep devotion and the miraculous transformation of the glass shreds into flowers, leaving the audience in awe of the power of faith and the divine.
