“The world rests as the lotus in the palm of my hand, the cosmos revolves around my finger like a discus. I blow the music of life through my conch and wield my mace to protect all creatures.” – Krishna Upanishad

The Multiverse as Vishnu's Dream Talon Abraxas

While Brahma creates the Universe, Vishnu is the source of all Creation. And he also sustains and protects the Universe making his role a lot more complex than that of Brahma’s.

Vishnu is the All-Pervading One, derived from “vis’ in Sanskrit which means both ‘to spread’ and ‘to be present everywhere’.

Even when there was Nothing, there was Vishnu, present as a nameless, formless, dormant energy. In this un-manifested (nirguna) state, even Vishnu was not aware of his own being. He just was. But just because he was not perceived, does not mean he did not exist.

In this Nothingness, when the first ripple of awareness stirred , spontaneously and of its own will, the formless energy became Vishnu, the Supreme Being, Parabrahman.

As Parabrahma, Vishnu lies in a dream like state on the serpent Adisesha Ananta who is Time, without beginning or end. Ananta floats for all eternity on the waters of the Ksheer Sagar ( the ocean of Cosmic Consciousness).

When Brahma begins the process of Creation, it is Vishnu who expands into everything and becomes part of everything. Now he is Brahman, the Cosmic Consciousness.

As if he is seeing a dream, Vishnu watches Brahma create the Universe. By the act of watching his dream, Vishnu sustains the Universe. When Vishnu wakes from his dream one cycle of Creation ends.

Vishnu who dreams up the Universe must also now protect it. To maintain the order of Creation, Vishnu becomes The Protector. He takes the form of Ishwara or God.

This form of Vishnu looks very different from the one reclining on Ananta. He is standing,radiant as the sun and has four arms. In his hands he holds the Conch, The Discus, The Lotus and The Mace.

From the Nirguna Brahman( formless energy) Vishnu thus becomes Saguna Brahman, a God with forms and attributes. Vishnu is now the Supreme Lord, Parameshwar.

At times, when world descends into total chaos, Lord Vishnu comes to its rescue in the form of an Avatar, or incarnation.

The ten incarnations of Vishnu in the physical world are:

1.Matsya (fish) 2.Kurma (turtle) 3.Varaha (boar) 4.Narasimha (man-lion) 5.Vamana (dwarf) 6.Parashurama (warrior-priest) 7.Rama ( man who was like God) 8.Krishna (God who was born as man) 9.Buddha (the enlightened one) 10.Kalki (horseman, who has not yet appeared)

References to Vishnu are found even in the Rig Veda, the oldest of the scared texts.

ASIAN MYTHOLOGY

-Hindu Mythology-

Here is a piece of the larger framework of Asian mythology located in India

हिंदूपौराणिक कथा will refer to the mythological framework of people in INDIA near the INDUS VALLEY that has been upheld for nearly FOUR MILLENNIA. Creation is accredited to Brahma; the creator of everything. He will, nonetheless, emerge from a GOLDEN EGG. Its pantheon, including him, will center around the TRINITY OF GODS that will include BRAHMA, VISHNU, AND SHIVA. There are other deities that exclude THE TRINITY that will represent GOD in another form known as an AVATAR. From this, the mythology made in their image was given to account for the CUSTOMS of the people of India.

THE GODS OF THE TRINITY

■LORD BRAHMA is the creator

■LORD VISHNU is the God tasked with the preservation of creation

■LORD SHIVA is the destroyer

------------------------------------------

[2]

THE AVATAR OF BRAHMA

1st AVATAR

■Valmiki -> वाल्मिकि

2nd AVATAR

Vishnu took the form of Matsya to rescue the first man, as well as any other creature of the earth, from a global disaster. He accomplished this by having forewarned mankind about the coming flood, and he ordered him to gather up all of the grain and to preserve any creature in a great boat.

2nd AVATAR

■Kurma -> कूर्म

Vishnu took the form of Kurma to churn the ocean in order to reach any treasure dissolved in the ocean of milk. He placed it on his back for support, which gave him the leverage needed to stir that great volume.

3rd AVATAR

■Varaha -> वराह

Varaha raised the earth from the bottom of the sea after Hiranyaksha dragged it there; it only took a millennia to do that, but he did it.

4th AVATAR

■Narasimha -> नरसिंह

Hiranyakashipiu obtained a special blessing from Brahma that he could not be killed or harmed by any means. That made him arrogance. As a result, he began causing trouble both in heaven and on earth. Prahlada, however, was devoted to Vishnu. Angered by that, he challenged his son to fight him. Narasimha emerged. And then, he slayed Hiranyakashipiu.

5th AVATAR

■Vamana -> मातरः

6th AVATAR

HOW MANY VISHNU AVATARS ARE THERE?

Reading time- 5 mins

In Hindu mythology, Lord Vishnu, the preserver, and sustainer of the universe, is believed to have taken various avatars (incarnations) throughout history. These avatars serve a divine purpose, restoring balance and righteousness in the world. Let's explore the fascinating stories behind the ten most significant avatars of Lord Vishnu.

1. Matsya Avatar (The Fish Incarnation):

As Matsya, Lord Vishnu appeared as a giant fish to save humanity from a catastrophic flood. He guided the sage Manu's boat to safety and preserved life during the deluge, symbolizing protection and preservation.

2. Kurma Avatar (The Tortoise Incarnation):

In this avatar, Vishnu assumed the form of a giant tortoise to support the mythical Mount Mandara during the churning of the cosmic ocean. The Kurma avatar represents stability and patience.

3. Varaha Avatar (The Boar Incarnation):

As a boar, Vishnu rescued the earth goddess, Bhudevi, by lifting her out of the primordial ocean. Symbolizing strength and protection, the Varaha avatar restored order and ensured the continuity of life on Earth.

4. Narasimha Avatar (The Lion-Man Incarnation):

Lord Vishnu took the form of Narasimha, a half-lion, half-man being, to protect his devotee Prahlada from the demon king Hiranyakashyap. Narasimha is considered a symbol of divine wrath against evil forces.

5. Vamana Avatar (The Dwarf Incarnation):

In the Vamana avatar, Lord Vishnu appeared as a dwarf Brahmin to restore balance by curbing the arrogance of the demon king Bali. Through humility and righteousness, Vamana regained control over the three worlds.

6. Parashurama Avatar (The Axe-Wielding Incarnation):

Parashurama, an embodiment of Lord Vishnu, manifested as a warrior sage wielding a mighty axe. He eradicated the corrupt and tyrannical Kshatriya rulers to restore justice and righteousness.

7. Rama Avatar (The Ideal King Incarnation):

The epic tale of Ramayana narrates the life of Lord Rama, an exemplary ruler, and embodiment of righteousness. As Rama, Lord Vishnu defeated the demon king Ravana and showcased the ideals of dharma (righteousness) and devotion.

8. Krishna Avatar (The Divine Flute Player Incarnation):

The charismatic Krishna, a beloved deity in Hindu mythology, embodied love, compassion, and divine wisdom. As the central character of the Mahabharata, Krishna guided Arjuna on the path of righteousness in the Bhagavad Gita.

9. Balarama Avatar (The Elder Brother Incarnation):

Balarama, the elder brother of Krishna, represents strength and loyalty. He supported Krishna in his divine mission and was revered as a symbol of agricultural prosperity and power.

10. Kalki Avatar (The Future Incarnation):

The Kalki avatar is yet to come, as Lord Vishnu's final incarnation. It is believed that Kalki will appear at the end of the Kali Yuga (the current age of darkness and moral decline), riding a white horse, to restore righteousness and initiate a new golden age.

The avatars of Lord Vishnu are not merely mythical tales but carry profound symbolism and teachings. Each avatar reflects a divine purpose, illustrating various aspects of Lord Vishnu's role as the preserver and the protector of the universe. The stories of these avatars continue to inspire millions, imparting valuable lessons about righteousness, devotion, and the triumph of good over evil.

The One who is nor finite, neither infinite.

The One who is before time and after it, who regulates the past, the present and the future.

When there was no creation, no time, he was there. All was the manifestation of him.

When there is no darkness, no light, no air, no water, no sense, no intellect. All were emerged from him because the seed is 'Him'.

One among the three creators who embodies brahman. Residence of whole world in him as He, himself is the Supreme.

He was never born, neither he was unborn.

He was the Yahweh, the creator of all.

Called as a " Sukrittarah"--The best among the best who gives the result.

He is never 'was' , 'am' or 'will'. He is the Supreme being of 'kaal' or 'Time'.

Incarnated himself 10 times in the form of Vamana, Varaha, Rama, Krishna, Parashurama....

Put up his 'Sarang' to destroy the evils and for the uplift of righteousness.

The One who put himself forth whenever it is needed to destroy the injustice and prevention of sinful and wicked.

You are mortal because you are a part of him.

Because

He is Eternal.

I give you

The Vasudev..

" VISHNU "

Jambavan

Jambavan (sánscrito: जाम्‍बवान्, romanizado: Jāmbavān), también conocido como Jambavanta (sánscrito: जाम्बवन्त, romanizado: Jāmbavanta), es el rey de los osos en los textos hindúes.

Emerge de la boca de Brahma cuando la deidad creadora bosteza. Él ayuda al avatar Rama de Vishnu en su lucha contra el rey rakshasa Ravana.[3] En el Ramayana, ayuda a Hanuman a darse cuenta de su potencial, justo antes de su famoso salto a la isla de Lanka.Jambavan estuvo presente en la agitación del océano, y se supone que dio 21 vueltas a Vamana en un solo salto, cuando estaba adquiriendo los tres mundos de Mahabali.

Se considera que Jambavan, junto con Parashurama y Hanuman, es uno de los pocos que estuvo presente tanto para los avataras de Rama como para los de Krishna. Su hija Jambavati estaba casada con Krishna.

Dashavatara Mural Sri Kaliyuga Venkatesa Perumal Aalayam, Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu

Matharasi Balakrishnan wrote : The word Dashavatara derives from daśa, meaning 'ten', and avatar (avatāra), roughly equivalent to 'incarnation'. Most draw from the following set of figures, in this order: Matsya; Kurma; Varaha; Narasimha; Vamana; Parashurama; Rama; Krishna or Balarama; Buddha or Krishna; and Kalki.

In traditions that omit Krishna, he often replaces Vishnu as the source of all avatars. Some traditions include a regional deity such as Vithoba or Jagannath in penultimate position, replacing Krishna or Buddha. All avatars have appeared except Kalki, who will appear at the end of the Kali Yuga.

The order of the ancient concept of Dashavataras has been interpreted to be reflective of modern Darwinian evolution.
