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.

A society must always aim for balance. It needs intellectuals, it needs warriors, it needs traders, it needs artists, and it needs skilled workers. If it empowers one group too much or another too little, it is headed for chaos.

Beyond Lakshman Rekha: Sita’s story retold by contemporary authors

After all, the author has revisited mythology several times to give it his own twist—be it the Shiva trilogy or the Ram Chandra series. By Reya Mehrotra We all know Sita as Lord Rama’s wife, the Hindu goddess and heroine of Ramayana, the one who was abducted and the one who crossed the Lakshman Rekha. But who was Sita, the woman? When author Amish Tripathi says that his interpretation of Sita in…

Here are my headcanons about Bharata and Mandavi's marriage (copied and pasted from my last-night Discord dump):

So Rama & Lakshmana go to Mithila, Rama wins Sita in the swayamvara (and she chooses him too if you take her lifting the shiv dhanush as canon) and although there's nothing to support it, I hc that Lakshmana and Urmila married out of having siimlar fiery tempers and both adoring their elder sibling

So Rama/Sita and Lakshmana/Urmila happen out of love. By contrast, BHarata/Mandavi and Shatrughan/Shrutakirti have their marriages arranged bc it's convenient to have Ayodhya's 4 princes marry Mithila's 4 princesses.

I don't think Bharata/Mandavi had a bad relationship by any means, simply that their marriage didn't begin with a soul-deep connection the way R/S did, or with a spark the way L/U did.

THeir marriage was one of convenience (at first).

Now in order to fully appreciate my hcs, I need to talk about BHarata's family tree. Some versions have a backstory that Aswapati, Kaikeyi's father, had the ability to talk to animals but per a curse, could not reveal this knowledge to anyone else on pain of death. One day, Kaikeyi's mother heard him talking to some swans/birds and wanted to know what he was saying. Tl;dr she wouldn't back down and he banished her that day

Aswapati and his wife had 8 kids together (7 boys + Kaikeyi) yet she demanded to know a secret that would be his death & he exiled her.

WHich led to Manthara, her wet nanny, becoming Kaikeyi's mother figure. Kaikeyi grew up to be a warrior and saved Dasharatha's life in battle by acting as his charioteer. Yet when she gets married, she has to put all that aside and she's expected to produce a child (which she fails to do first). She's his favorite wife, but at the expense of her individuality & martial skills. And her childhood trauma leaves her terrified of losing his favor/place. The only leverage she has over him is those two boons. In my headcanon, Dasharatha and Kaikeyi loved each other fiercely, but they never communicated their fears/expectations, which led to Kaikeyi's panic on day. She once saved his life in battle, yet she ended up demanding an unspeakable oath from him, and he died loathing and cursing her.

Then there's Rama/Sita. They loved each other enough to go into exile and fight wars for each other, yet he put her through one (almost two) Agni Parikshas, exiled her while pregnant, and ultimately drove her to commit bhumipravesh.

So Bharata comes from a long line of marriages that were based in love but did not work out.

(I also hc Lakshmana/Urmila undergoing a very rough patch after he helps exiles Sita without telling anyone.)

In contrast, there's Bharata and mandavi. A lot of versions have him living at Nandigram while she wastes away in the palace, which... . It makes no sense for her to be alone in the palace just a few miles away, especially when Bharata wants to emulate Rama,who took his wife with him. So I hc that they went to Nandigram together, and there, when they had lost almost their entire family and had the burden of a kingdom suddenly thrust on their shoulders, they had no choice but to lean on each other, and in doing so, their marriage became one of true respect, companionship, and love.

THere's no real canonical support for like 80% of this, but I just love the idea that out of all the marriages that didn't work out in Rmy, here's one that was arranged, but ended up stronger than many of the others.

And because I wanted someone to end up happy.

I also hc that post-Uttarakanda, this is especially important, because Bharata has some complicated thoughts about Rama's decisions, and his marriage to Mandavi has to be especially strong to weather them. (Shameless self-promotion of the fic I wrote exploring this: https://archiveofourown.org/works/26334817)

OHMYGOD I JUST ... WOW! 😍

[art-culture-philosophy-and-media]

Random ideas

Ayodhaya is a hunter/warrior society,Mithila is farmer/agriculturer society.

In my point of view,Ram is doubtful to every "goodness", he has been taught about what dharma is(and why he must follow) but he still have doubt in it even so,which sometimes pressured him and made him having a headache(really)

Sita and all of her sisters could wear boy's outfit(like in the picture) since their culture of the society doesn't serious on clothing that matching gender aka they did not deny the fact of unisex object.

(I used the Scythian's outfit for them)

Sita loves kids! She would love to play with the peasant's children and the children also love her like a sister or mother.

She also interested on midwifery, you can tell that Mithila's young citizens(from newborn to 3)are bring to this world by her help.

Moreover she's such a nature lover child,she would sometimes isolated herself to the forest behind the palace,spending times with her animal friends and lying down on the grass.

She never fear of bugs or insects.

The Ram Chandra Series

Trust me! I am not at all a bookie person. If anyone said that I read that book and I finished this book, I ‘ll be like “How come these people have so much patience to sit and read through the whole book? That much time they have? “ Me literally like to hear the story line from them. I  even look up to them as Kinda Scholars.

This book has been in my home for quite a long time. nearly 3 years now... It was gifted by my friend. But I never had such a patience to read them nor to adore them. But suddenly one day ,when I was cleaning my shelves and I was like “Let me read this book and let me try to know the story of the Great Ramayana” and I started reading it. Now I have completed this whole book with such a patience. After completing It i was like “Oh Patience! how come you were so nice to me throughout reading this”.

In Kerala, this month is said to be RAMAYAN month. In every house they read The Ramayana daily till the end of this month. There is a myth in Kerala that we should not leave reading Ramayana Story in the middle of nowhere. Once we start them, we should finish them. Incase if we stop, the page where we have stopped will tend to reflect in our lives. I do not know this is a fact or a myth.

Last year, I was in Kerala and my mother-in-law used to read it. She used to say: Come, sit near me so that your babe in your womb may hear it and understand. She was a degree holder in Sanskrit, and I was like “If I don’t understand, how come my babe would understand that?”. Still I would sit near and hear her, thinking “whatever, Sitting beside her makes happy”. But at last she would explain me what she has read though.

Like Muslims read The Quran, Christians read The Bible, We Hindus should know the Story and we should teach our children and grandchildren how we are ought to obey the law and cherish them. We are ought to be good beings by reading them. Btw I have ordered the second book :P “Sita – Warrior of Mithila”

4. Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World

One of the most valuable skills in our economy is becoming increasingly rare. If you master this skill, you'll achieve extraordinary results.

Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world.

'Deep work' is the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively demanding task. Coined by author and professor Cal Newport on his popular blog Study Hacks, deep work will make you better at what you do, let you achieve more in less time and provide the sense of true fulfilment that comes from the mastery of a skill. In short, deep work is like a superpower in our increasingly competitive economy.

And yet most people, whether knowledge workers in noisy open-plan offices or creatives struggling to sharpen their vision, have lost the ability to go deep - spending their days instead in a frantic blur of email and social media, not even realising there's a better way.

A mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, DEEP WORK takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories -- from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind, to a social media pioneer buying a round-trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book free from distraction in the air -- and surprising suggestions, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored.

Put simply: developing and cultivating a deep work practice is one of the best decisions you can make in an increasingly distracted world and this book will point the way.

[herawell]

Even if you disregard the instances of Sita's physical strength as not being in the original Valmiki text (IIRC, the lifting of the Shiva dhanush is from Telugu/Tamil folktales, while Sita defeating the Pushkar Ravana is from the Adbhuta Ramayana), she still displays so much strength and character of will. Just because she is not fiery like Draupadi does not mean she isn't strong. This is also why I almost don't like modern TV serials/book series (such as Warrior of Mithila) that reinterpret Sita as a warrior, because it feels like it's saying that the canonical Sita isn't strong enough on her own.

the fact that people think of sita as weak or demure angers me, for in their imagination, feminism or strength is one dimensional.

She was born from the earth, found in a furrow.

She lifted Shiva's mighty bow while playing, a feat that couldn't be accomplished by the mightiest of warriors.

She chose to go with her husband with dignity, loyal till the end.

She weathered years in exile, a princess hardened by the forest.

She chose to show kindness to ravana, who tricked her disguised as a mendicant.

She resisted the strongest of illusions cast by him, held captive in Lanka for a year.

She looked Lankapati in the eye and dared him to even touch her.

She sent Hanuman away, and ordered him to tell Ram to come and kill Ravana and give her her justice and revenge.

She turned into the fearsome Kali and killed the Pushkar Ravana, Ravana's cousin who had a thousand heads and arms.

She reigned along her husband in Ayodhya.

And when she was dealt the cruelest hand by fate, as her husband abandoned her pregnant in the forest, she still refused to be broken. she built a life for herself in Valmiki's ashram, and raised her children as a single mother.

She's Bhumija, Janaki, Vaidehi, Maithili, Ramaa, Lakshmi. And it would served people better to remember Sita.
