Dashavatar of Lord VISHNU (Operator)

Introduction:  Lord Vishnu (Palanakartha) is  one who responsible for each and everything leaving  especially on earth surviving through him ..mean to say Configures all on this Earth, well according to Hindu Purana  Tridev namely Lord Brahma  one who is  Generator (creator) and  Lord Vishnu is Operator         ( Palanahara) and Lord Shiva (Destroyer) in all together called GOD.

             ALL Details mentioned as in “VISHNU PURANA”. Lord Vishnu Praised by all  Deva and Mahan Rishi’s about him and his Leela’s  in every AVATAR ( INCARNATION). Avatar taken purpose only to Remain “DHARMA” on Earth.. means giving justice for innocent and destroy evil power. lets us see one by one about Lord Vishnu’s Ten Incarnations .

1)    Matsya Avatar (Lord Vishnu took Incarnation of Fish)  :

Lord Vishnu why taken Matsya Avatar let us see-  when the time of Holocaust on earth with water everywhere that time Lord taken this Matsya (Fish) Avatar (Incarnation) to save earth , and reform it.. with pair of all animals and birds and other creatures  with help of Sathyavratha  Manu  he was very much humble and kind and devotee of Lord Vishnu so he was chosen for Great change , when time of morning  giving Argya (prayer water to lord) that time in his hand as soon he taken water in hand small golden fish  and attracted he found in his hands , it started speaking  don’t leave me here big fishes will eat me so take me with you,  Manu got astonished seeing by talking very beautiful so he decided to take with him he put that fish in his STOUP.

                 In very next day That fish became big naturally it transferred to Pond, Again next day  fish became more bigger by seeing this Manu asked to Fish you are not normal fish kindly introduce yourself  after asking by Manu Lord Vishnu appears in front of Manu and told him upcoming 7 days entire Bhoomi (Land)   will be doomed in water so bring one big Ship in that take all  one pair of animals and Birds and other creatures and Medicines, Seeds of Trees  so that once again after we can re-build Srasti (world). Manu came with his family before 7^th day, till finishing Manu and entire ship was sailing  with the  guidance of lord in water. Lord Vishnu was taken all 4 VEDAS in his mouth .

           After creating Srasti  he handed over to Lord Brahma .. so this is how end First Incarnation of Lord Vishnu .. this is all happened in creation of Srasti (world).. so he will always save Earth.. and recreate it in end time..

                           Lets us see second Avatar Of Lord Vishnu..

2)    Kurma Avatar ( incarnation of Tortoise) :

         Main reason is to take Kurma Avatar is king of Dev Indra lost  all prosperity of Heaven Because of “DHURVASA MUNI” a famous Rishi for his Angy , he got “SHRRAP” muni cursed dev indra you showing Ego due to your prosperity let the all vanish immediately.. and cursed took immediate effect on every devgana ( group of devas) all are lost their powers even sun and moon also that will affect on srasti ( nature ) became imbalance so he got  ashamed of what he did, so he went to lord Vishnu for suggestion to regain their power , lord Vishnu told to only way to get back all power you all have to do “SAMUDRA MANTHAN” ( Churning of the Sea) . so get ready for that bring Mandar Parvath (mountain) as “Carousels” and King of Snake VASUKI Head and tale but one condition was there samudra manthan Dav and danav (demons) have to do .. both are Enemies but no other option was there so he agreed and started Samudra manthan process.

              For Mandhar mountain nothing was there for its base to stand so it’s getting sinking and floating  so it was unable to stable , then Lord Vishnu Took KURMA Avatar became Big Tortoise and took Mandhar parvatha (Mountain) on his  back then it got stable then they started  churning.. many items were  came up from bottom of sea  valuable rare gems, many devi (Goddess) and Devathas including Amrit ( Honeydew) which gives immortality, and Before that very poisonous (Kalkoot Vish) air was acquired complete atmosphere , which is too dangerous that was drunk by Lord Shiva and saved all. So later one by one all they got which were they lost. This is how kurma avatar was once again saved entire srasti.

                      Another interesting thing is only Kurma ( Tortoise) can hold all its body  parts inside , which means we have to control our sense organs like tortoise. Next avatar of Lord Vishnu is “Varaha”

3)    Varaha (Boar) Avatar :  why Lord Vishnu taken Varaha  (boar) lets us see  Once Demon called “Hiranyakhsa” its Sanskrit word means Golden Eye, he was son of DITI and KASHYAPA Rishi, He did “AUSTERITY” Very hard got boon that he should not get killed by any person and any animal , after getting power he started to attack on heaven  established his dynasty later he miss placed earth of its orbit and kept under sea, all went to ask help to lord Vishnu to save from demon Hiranyaksha,

           That time Lord Vishnu took man-boar avatar varaha and defeated and killed demon Hiranyakha and saved earth from him by carrying in his teeth, and placed it proper orbit.

  

4)    Narashimha (Man-Lion):  Lord vishnu why taken avatar of Man-lion, this is related to pervious one hiranyaksha was elder brother of Hiranyakashpu  means “Clothed  in Gold” he also “AUSTERITY”  did hard and taken boon that he should get killed man, animal, god, godess, not in day ,  not in night , not inside door , not outside of the door, his main intension was to take revenge from lord Vishnu who killed his bother hiranyakha , he was waiting very much eagerly to meet lord Vishnu.. his wife name is “KAYADU” means “Sinless”  later he got son “Prahalada” means one who is in Extreme Joyful he is very much devotee of Lord Vishnu always chants Narayana  Narayan , totally opposite for His father Hiranyakashapu , everyone telling that worship hiranyakashapu as god  but he won’t listen to anyone , everyone was worshiping hiranyakshapu on fear , except his son , so he decided to kill him with many ways but lord Vishnu saved from him each of danger,

                So finally hirsanyakaspu started asking him where is HARI , prahlada said he is everywhere and in everything , does he exist in you, prahalada said yes, in me , he said yes, in this pillar he said yes ok then will check whether you telling lie or truth he hit so hard on piller piller got brokedn from inside light was came after light lord Vishnu was there with upper body part as Lion and down part is man, started fighting between hiranyakashpau and ,lord narashima  when the time of killing narashima took body of hirany kashpau and sat on entrance of door , time was sunset not time between  day and night , neither narshima was completely man nor completely animal. narashima just  tore his stomach take out intestine put in his neck with big and very sharp nails. Killed hiranyakaspu , lord Vishnu was in narshimha avatr was really scary one very aggressive compare to all avatars.

5)    Vamana (dwarf God) Avatar: why lord Vishnu taken vaman avatar, Mahabali the asura king, grandson of Prhalada and son of Virochana.

He was called Diathyaraj Mahabali, he lost his kingdom and powers after churning of sea , defeated by Devas, so he went to Daithya Guru Shukracharya  and asked how to gain back my powers and kingdom, Acharya suggested him to one way to get back his all powers and kingdom only through Mahabhishek Vishwajeeth Yagna  means conquer of the universe.

                              Bali started Mahabhishek Vishwajeeth Yagna under supervision of Shukracharya. After yagna bali received Golden chariot with pulled by Four Horses with speed of wind. he got one by one ultimate armors and weapons to defeat Indra, bali defeated indra . bali asked to achrya how to maintain his victorious position , then Achrya said keep on doing yagnas, you will become fearless and very powerful . main thing is you should give DAAN (ALMS) to poor and Brahmins.

       Bali agreed to acharyas word, Indra approached to Devguru Brahaspathi to learn gain  back  Gods power , brahaspathi told to indra seek lord Vishnu help, aditi was mother of indra also called Devmata she saw indra trouble and went to lord Vishnu requested to help him , lord vishnun said ill help you Devmatha. I will be born as your son and kill bali,   Aditi Gave birth to baby and named him Vamana.

                  One day Vamana posed as Brahmin went to bali where shukracharya and bali were doing Yagna,Bali welcomed boy and asked how can I help you young Brahmin.  Brahimn boy said I heard lot of you bali about your alms towords poor and Brahmins. But I don’t want any Luxurious or precious items, bali asked then what else you are looking for then brahimn said I just want my three steps of land. By hearing this laughed Bali on him and without making disappoint him he agreed . 

        As soon he agreed Vaman started growing his body suddenly everyone surprise on his first step coverd entire heaven which was conquered , and second step covers entire his Amarvati which place of Bali so he covered all what bali had by seeing this shukracharya warned bali he is not an ordinary Brahmin boy he is lord Vishnu, careful before giving third step for him,  bali said no acharya I have given my words so, I can’t turn back from my words. There is no space where I keep my third step asked vaman to bali, bali said there is no space left , you put third step on my head.

                   Lord Vishnu appeared in front bali and said, I bless you Bali now onward you will rule Paatal Lok,  through this lord Vishnu returned powers to Indra.

6)    Parshurama.:  why lord Vishnu taken Parashurama incarnation, Parashurama was son of Jamadagni Rushi and Renuka Devi, he also called Bhargava he got this name after acquiring Bhargavashatra . he got this name because he took born in Bhrigu race. He always carries his weapon “AXE” named “VIDYUDABHI”. Parashurama was ardent disciple of lord shiva . he learnt martial arts from shiva. He acquired Bhargavshatra, Shiva gifted him Axe and Vijaya as his personal bow .

                   Once Karthivirya visited Jamadgani  Ashrama  he was powerful king , jamadagni was not there at that time. Karthivirya saw a KAMADHENU Cow as word says what you wish that will be granted by that cow and gives endless milk, King was came to know about this cow and stole it from there. That cow was very precious to Jamadagni.

                           After jamadagni came to know searched and killed that king bought back Kamdhenu to Ashram. That kings son planned to take revenge on jamadagni,  he went to that ashram with army and killed Jamadagni, when Parashurama came to ashram Renuka devi   mourning near the dead body of his father. She was crying frantically and pounded her chest twenty-one times in a row.

                              Furious and grief stricken at this site, he vowed to slay all Kshatriyas twenty-one times, one for each time his mother had hit her chest. He traveled the whole Earth to hunt the sons of Kartavirya and killed them all. After Parashurama did as he vowed, he conducted the Ashvamedha sacrifice and gave all his conquered possessions to the Brahmin priests of the world.

                                 Parashurama plays important roles in the Mahabharata and Ramayana. He served as mentor to Karna, Bhishma and dronachyarya. Parashurama is believed to come back as the military mentor of Kalki. Because he is one them in  SEVEN IMMORTALS PEOPLE.

7)     Lord RAMA : Why Lord Vishnu Taken RAMA avatar, Rama Character was very unique and famous Avatars of Lord Vishnu. Lord Rama entitled with MARYADA PURUSHOTTAMA, means “Righteousness” “The Supreme Man”. why lord Vishnu taken Rama Avatar according to Padma Purana, there are many reason in that one was

          The Cursed Gatekeepers Jaya and Vijaya, the gatekeepers of Lord Vishnu were once cursed by the sons of Lord Brahma. This is because the Lord Brahma's sons were stopped by Jaya and Vijaya from meeting Lord Vishnu. Enraged by this behaviour of the gatekeepers, the sons cursed Jaya and Vijaya to be born as humans and go through the cycle of life, death and rebirth. It is said that Jaya and Vijaya were then born as Hirankashyapa and Hirankasha. Hirankashyapa was killed by Lord Narsimha, one of the incarnations of Lord Vishnu while Hirankasha was killed by Varaha, also an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Even after being killed, the two Asuras (demons) didn't achieve salvation and therefore, were later born as Raavan and Kumbhkarna in their next birth. To kill the two Asuras and provide them salvation(Moksh).

        Lord Rama son of King of AYodhya on the banks of Saryu river Dasharath and Kaushallya Devi , he belongs to Suryavanhsa , Sumitra ‘s son  Lakshmana very loyal to his brother siblings were there  Bharatha, Shathrugna,  all are very Loyal to Rama, His yuga(Time) called  Thretha-yug  second age  of world cycle.

          Ravana was the king of Lanka kingdom, he got boon from Lord Brahma Dev that he should not get killed by any god, Deva, yakha, Gandharva, godess, animal, normal human can only can kill him like Blessings got. And once ravanas sidter surpnakha saw Rama and shw wanted to marry with him so she went near to Rama that lakshmana came to know that she is not human being , she is demonic and as she get close to Rama Lakshmana came with sword and cut her nose she went lanka and told what happened to Ravana  he got angry and came to take revenge on Rama and Laskhmana . after coming he came to know the power of Rama he is very good in Archery , and his qualities too, and saw seethe too he got plan to kidnap seethe that is not possible with Rama and lakshmana near to seethe he thought to send then far from seethe, so called Maareech a demon with Golden magic Deer.
