#MythMonday : Kurma

I went to to turtle pond in Central Park just to film Kūrma with Kūrma!!!

Vishnu, the sustainer of the earth, appears in various forms to save the planet when necessary. There are 10 avatars of Vishnu, whose appearances seem to coincide with evolution. Kurma, the tortoise, was the 2nd avatar.

1. Matsya (The Fish)
2. Kurma (The Tortoise)
3. Varaha (The Boar)
4. Narasimha (The Lion Man)
5. Vamana (The Dwarf)
6. Parashurama (A Warrior/Saint, bound by codes of honor)
7. Rama (The Perfect Man)
8. Krishna
9. Buddha
10. Kalki (The Horseman – has not yet appeared)
