And, O king, that son of Diti, who was known as Hiranyakasipu, was known in this world among men as the powerful Sisupala.
They were Hiranyakasipu, and Hiranyaksha, and Virochana, and Samvara, and Viprachitti, and Prahlada, and Namuchi, and Vali.
The Asuras, with their chief Hiranyakasipu at their head, then repaired to their sister, the mother of Viswarupa, and solicited a boon from her, saying,--'The son Viswarupa by Tashtri, otherwise called Trisiras, is now the priest of the deities.
King Hiranyakasipu, upon the arrival of Trisiras, dismissed his old Hotri, viz., Vasishtha, the son of Brahma, and appointed Trisiras to that office.
Incensed at this, Vasishtha cursed Hiranyakasipu, saying,--'Since thou dismissest me and appointest another person as thy Hotri, this sacrifice of thine shall not be completed, and some Being the like of whom has not existed before will slay thee!'--In consequence of this curse, Hiranyakasipu was slain by Vishnu in the form of a man-lion.
