Kalki - Concept

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ UNDER THE CUT.

So I got a prompt...banana leaf green+futuristic...and this idea struck. This is a rough sketch that I will hopefully make a final version of. Below is the explanation as dumped on a friend on whatsapp at 3 AM.

this is KALKI He is drawn as a non binary She has an appearance of what people frown upon and judge ekhon piercing, heavy tattoos, black, side buzz cut etc jewellery will be punkified version of some traditional jewellery like makar kundal punk version OF that kalki is said to have a sword and kalki alternatively refers to light which cleans up the darkness hence a light saber style sword which crackles with lightning and it is white symbolising knowledge and purity on their sword wala arm is a tattoo of Ananta sesh naag and the other one has the tattoo of a shankha on his chest is a lotus symbolising Lakshmi because they are cutus that way dark lipstick and heavy almost drag kind of eye makeup looks like a rebel young person symbolising that the collective youth when they fight for knowledge and what is right against generations of mistakes and oppression…they become the actual Kalki. this is a concept art. forgive me for ranting at 3

Dasavatharam

I recently found out some sects of Hinduism include Buddha as the 9th Avatar in Vishnu's Dasavatharam.

I am from the southern part specifically Tamilnadu, here even in our temple the inscriptions and statues for Dasavatharam always included Balaramar as one of the Vishnu Avatars, not Buddha. Like in the below order. I have used Tamil pronunciation for all.

Matsyam

Kurmam

Varaham

Narasimham

Vamanam

Parashuramar

Ramar

Balaramar

Krishnar

Kalki

This made me so curious about how different Hinduism practices are around India or the world but still hold a string of similarities among them

Which one you have heard growing up? Put it in the comments.

Kalki Incarnation: The Final Avatar of Vishnu

The Kalki incarnation, the tenth and final avatar of Vishnu in Hinduism, is prophesied to appear at the end of the current Kali Yuga. Kalki, often depicted as a warrior on a white horse with a blazing sword, is destined to end the age of darkness and corruption. This avatar will destroy evil, restore righteousness, and bring about a new era of truth and virtue, known as Satya Yuga. The prophecy…

Vishnu Dashavatar (10 Incarnations)

[judahmaccabees]

the dalai lama goes to ETERNAL Hell for never actually helping anyone

Matthew 25:41-46

God hates demonic pretenders. Selfish narcissist faux peace parasite pansy thief Accursed. Good souls don't grin over false peace while others are suffering.

You Hated and Oppressed the critics who spoke the truth, worshiping Liars, killing the innocent and Mother Mary.

Mammon servants bury wealth in the ground to make the innocent suffer, and are not welcome in the Celestial Kingdom. Matthew 25:41-46

They don't follow the law because they're demons.

Greedy, self-absorbed false kings.

Every knee will bow.

[romanceclub-confessionss]

Confession:

"kfs and kcd never bothered me per se even as a hindu but the moment I started reading ramayan and the shiv puran (religious text) it bothered me to the core cuz the sheer amount of unnecessary dramatically false versions of our mythology has been placed as if we don't worship them everyday and it hurts to see the western fandom overlook it. also kali maa is nOT associated at all with kali yug, its the demon kali, and the saviour's name is kalki, an avatar of vishnu ffs. and shiva NEVER ever takes an avatar on earth btw, hes already everywhere this is too long but hope you get my point 🙏"

The Concept of Avatar in Hinduism

In Hinduism, an Avatar is the divine descent of God to earth to restore dharma (righteousness) whenever evil rises. The Bhagavad Gita states:

"Whenever there is decay of righteousness... I myself come forth... For the protection of the good and the destruction of evil-doers." (Gita 4:7-8)

Hindu scriptures primarily attribute Avatars to Lord Vishnu, with the Dashavatara (10 Avatars) being the most well-known, including Rama, Krishna, and the future Kalki Avatar. However, the Srimad Bhagavatam expands this list, stating that Avatars are countless, appearing whenever needed.

Avatars & Divine Manifestation:

Hinduism acknowledges different expressions of divinity:

- Purna Avatar (full divine manifestation) – Krishna, Rama

- Amsa Avatar (partial manifestation) – Balarama, Kapila

- Shaktiavesha Avatar (divine power for destruction of evil) – Parashurama

Avatara Purushas (Divine Beings)

Throughout history, saints and spiritual leaders have been revered as Avatars, including Shankaracharya, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Shirdi Sai Baba, Satya Sai Baba, and Mata Amritanandamayi. Their wisdom transcends sects, guiding humanity toward enlightenment.

Hinduism’s vast and evolving wisdom teaches that the true essence of Avatars lies in their teachings, which uplift humanity and align with Sanatana Dharma’s eternal truths.

“Om Namo Narayanaya” Cosmic Vishnu Talon Abraxas Lord Vishnu God Vishnu is a manifestation of the eternal and endless Parabrahmn. He is the prime mover that powers the objective world. He is the guardian that sustains this universe. God Vishnu is the substrate of all things. He is the origin of the tiniest atoms and the mightiest galaxies.

His abode lies in Kshirsagar, a timeless place far beyond the mortal world, where He likes to rest on his magnificent lotus throne. He walks with Devi Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and good fortune.

Significance and Role: Vishnu is one of the Trimurtis; and the one most involved in the day-to-day affairs of this world. Because of His unbounded power, He never descends to the mortal world as himself. His will, however, still shapes the events, both on the granular and the cosmic scales. He takes countless avatars throughout history for this purpose. When the need arises, He appears as a mortal, to tip the scales of balance between the good and the evil.

God Vishnu is generally represented either seated or standing, on a bed of lotus, floating in the cosmic ocean of milk, the Kshirsagar. The thousand hoods of the Sheshanaga, the king of all serpents and the primal snake, form a protective parasol over the head of God Vishnu.

It’s a long-held tradition to represent Vishnu with light blue skin and four arms.

Avatars of Vishnu: Matsya, the fish, was the first avatar of Vishnu. In this form, he guided Manu during the great deluge. Kurma, the turtle, was the second and Varaha, the boar, was the third. The fourth avatar of Vishnu is Narasimha, the half-man half-lion being, that broke out of existence from within the pillars of the dungeons where Hiranyakashipu was torturing his son, Vishnu-bhakta Prahlada.

The fifth avatar was Vaman, the dwarf Brahman, who went to ask for alms from the great Asura king Bali (also referred to as Mahabali, or Maveli). Next are Parashurama, Rama, and Krishna. The ninth avatar of Vishnu depends on the tradition you choose to follow. Some people believe it to be Balarama, the son of Krishna’s foster parents, others say it’s Gautama the Buddha.

Kalki is the future avatar, slated to appear at the fag end of Kaliyuga, for the final battle between the good and the evil.

Benefits of Worshipping Him: God Vishnu is worshipped in thousands of names. Vishnu Sahasranama is a list of over a thousand names of God Vishnu. Each of these revered names describe a distinct aspect of the ultimate reality.

Boons from God Vishnu, while benefiting the devotee, also has a way of doing good for the world at large. Vishnu not only grants you what you ask for but what you really need. Being a Parabrahmn, God Vishnu can grant his devotees, true bliss and knowledge, when sought appropriately. If deemed worthy, a touch of Vishnu can provide a candidate, instant enlightenment, or the moksha. Mukti from Samsara Varta and vicious cycle of births and deaths.

God Vishnu is an object of reverence for gods and mortals alike. His avatars were heroic personalities, born to correct the wrongs of the world, and to provide courage and inspiration to the denizens of Mrityu-Loka, or the mortal Earth.

His Powers: God Vishnu is omnipotent. He can travel instantly to anywhere in any direction. He can see anything he turns his eyes towards. Nothing is hidden from him. He makes the world run. Vatam, or the movement of air, is the most expressive form of his influence. Through the breaths of life that mortals take, the Vatam enters their bodies, subtly changing their hearts and minds. He is the original magician and trickster. No one can grasp his true intentions unless he intends them to.

His Vehicle: Vishnu rides the mighty eagle, the Garuda. The Garuda is special because its original form is not part of this Brahmand. Similar to his master, Garuda also has taken many avatars in the lower worlds. One of them was Vainateya (son of Vinata) whose life was riddled with countless tales of valor, grit, and wisdom. Garuda embodies the wisdom of the Vedas themselves. It’s also a lesser-known fact that Eagles always play crucial cameos in all of God Vishnu’s incarnations in the lower worlds.

In his benevolent depiction, God Vishnu is represented sleeping on the coils of Sheshanaga, the primal thousand-headed serpent, who like the Garuda exists apart from this Brahmand or the universe. Shesha is considered both a servant and a manifestation of Vishnu and has descended to the Prithvi-Loka as Lakshamana in the Ramayana era, Balarama during the Mahabharata era, and Ramanujacharya, the proponent of Vishishtadvaita School of Vedanta, during the Kaliyuga.

Weapons and Artifacts: Vishnu wields many weapons. Chief among them is the Sudarshana Chakra, the deadly discus of death, swirling around his forefinger. Sudarshana Chakra, being an invincible weapon, is used rarely. There are zero, five, eight, and sixteen weapon depictions of Vishnu in some of his popular representations like Narsimha, Mahavishnu, Ashtabhuja, and Shodasayudha.

Vishnu is the bearer of the conch of divine knowledge, the Panchajanya. Vishnu and his avatars are known to blow the conch shell to herald both good times and wars.

Vishnu, in his four-armed representation, is shown holding a mace and a lotus, apart from the chakra and the conch. The mace is named Kaumodaki and is a mark of authority. Padma, the lotus symbolizes purity and transcendence.

In some of his less common representations, Vishnu is sometimes also represented as wielding the celestial bow Sharanga or the Nandaka sword. The Nandaka sword is believed to be a sentient weapon with the ability to descend to the lower Lokas as avatars in service of its master, Vishnu.

In the Vaishnavite traditions, it is held that it was God Vishnu who created Brahma and taught him about Vedas. It is the knowledge of Vedas that allowed God Brahma to create the universe and its myriad aspects. While Brahma may be the architect, it’s Vishnu who was the ultimate supplier of the building blocks.

[zeherili-ankhein]

wait, so does Vishnu have to live a full life every time he comes to Earth as a part of the Dashavatar? Or does he just choose to do so, when he came down as Ram or Krishna?

He choose to do so

Because Krishna and Ram were Purna Avatar

Well Krishna is considered Purna Avatar

But both Krishna and Ram avatars purpose was to be human and do stuff

That was what was necessary. Ravan needed to be killed by a human.

Mahabharat needed someone who was as God as a God can be and also as human as a human can be (when he's an avatar I mean)

But the other avatars had different purposes like Matsya's purpose was to sail the boat, Kurma's purpose was supporting the mountain during Samudra Manthan

They didn't needed to be born and die a full like.

But Parashuram needed to he's still alive btw he won't die lol

Vamana needed to be born but not die like a human ig...

Buddha also needed to live like a human.

Kalki would need to be born like a human and live a full life.

So yeah... It depends on the purpose of the avatar he's taking

My honest review and opinion on kalki 2898 AD movie;

I just watched the movie today and I do have a few opinions about this movie..

So, first of all, I'm ngl but i really love Amitabh bacchan sir's acting, He , as always was brilliant! Like he is above 80 but the way he carried himself as the role of aswatthama was brilliant!

I did love Kamal Hassan sir's acting even though his screen time was less, the makeup for me was kinda brilliant, and he's a phenomenal actor.

Deepika Padukone in her mother era! She's such a beauty! Like man how the hell is she so beautiful, like wow! Mother is mothering for me!

Saswata chatterjee sir, fellow bong, you were amazing even though I kinda didn't like the comedic thing that they added to Manas's character, but trust me, he was brilliant like always! But My parents did love the comedic thing tbh!

Okay, so Prabash, compared to Adipurush, here his acting and expressions did improve a lot for which he does deserve applause. But honestly, I didn't really like the character of Bhairava, honestly for me the comedic timings were really unnecessary. I mean, making him a tad bit serious would've done it tbh. His acting at some places was kinda stiff , but compared to Adipurush, it was great but still not at the Bahubali level.

Now regarding the movie in general:

The first half before the interval was confusing. I'm ngl but it took me some time to understand certain places and the comedy wasn't really necessary at certain places.

The second half does really picks up the pace , like the second half compared to the first was really better tbh.

I loved the part where they tried to bring every religion together and wanted to convey that every religion is similar to eachother was amazing!!!

Now mythology wise, being a mythology fan and a history nerd,

I hated how they made Arjuna look arrogant, like guys, Arjuna is described as a brilliant warrior, strategist with the kindest heart during that eta. It is often said, that arjuna was considered to be the most humane out of them all. And making him arrogant was not that great according to me.

And bringing karna there was totally unnecessary! His character was not needed! It was not all needed to bring karna back and give him a re-birth.

Aswatthama part I can understand, considering he was cursed to have immortality but still

I feel like they could've brought arjuna back tbh, because it is said that Krishna and Arjuna are parts of the same soul, so it would've done them good if they brought arjuna back to make him as Kalki's guide and friend instead!

And c'mon, the fact that they tried to portray that arjuna only won because of having gandiva, Krishna and Hanuman on his side is wrong. Like he was the greatest warrior of his generation, give him the credit! The respect that he deserves for his prowess!

And giving Gandiva to Kali?! Like if they wanted to add a celestial weapon, they could've added Sharanga,the bow of vishnu instead. Gandiva is not even related to Vishnu or his avatars . And it is said that only arjuna, Krishna and bhima could've lifted the bow, so how can kali lift it? I feel like they wanted to portray that , what would happen if a great power falls into the hands of the evil, but then use Sharanga bow instead of gandiva.

Nag Ashwin sir, even though I really like the action scenes, I feel like, it needs a bit more research on the mythological context.

This is my personal opinion so please respect it!
