Lord Vishnu - Second Avatar - Kurma Avatar (Turtle)

Before Kurma Avatar, I want to tell you something else. Everyone has problems which are generated from the planetary energy imbalance. This imbalance is created by our Karma of all births till now and because of that some people get things easily whereas others have to work harder. Because of this karma, we born at a particular date and got particular family and people around us. I see and solve problems based on planetary energy in your birth chart and give you the best solutions and remedies for your problems by astrology, the science discovered by Indian sages. That helps to balance the energy and heal your problems from inside out. Mail me on reikimasterdhwani@gmail.com for getting your consultation. I do not predict on birth chart of a child under age of 12 years unless any serious health issue.

           

            
             Devta (good doers or angels) and Asura (bad doers or demons) were siblings as they born from the same father named Rishi Kashyapa. They used to have a lot of fights among them to get the paradise and become all powerful. Let us see the background of the story. Once upon a time in Satya Yuga, Rishi Durvasa, ancient great sage, gifted a garland of flowers to the Indra who is the king of all angels. Indra has an elephant named Airavata and he uses it as a vehicle. Indra gave this garland to the elephant to decorate it around his neck. But the elephant was playing with it and it threw that garland on the ground and trampled it. Sage Durvasa witnessed this and got very angry due to desecration of his gift. He cursed Indra and other angels that they all will lose their power and kingdom. By knowing this the asura who are devils conquered the angels by fighting war for many years. Even though angels fought valiantly, they are defeated by the demons. They lost everything so they went to Brahma and Shiva, but they said no for intervene. At last, they went to lord Vishnu.
           

             The lord Vishnu who always saves the angels from the demons, thought about this. He suggested pouring some divine herbs into the sea of milk and use the mountain Mandarachal as the churning stick and use serpent Vasuki for wrapping the mountain and one side held by angels whereas the other side by demons. This way the elixir came out and by drinking it the angels could be immortal. Although, angels were powerful, they could not uproot the mountain, so the lord Vishnu advised them to joint with the demons. They went to the asuras and they both got agree to churn the sea. As the churning began, the lord Vishnu directed the angels to take the head of the serpent. As the demons saw that and smelled a foul play and without the second thought, they wanted the head and reverse psychology of lord Vishnu worked. As the churning began, many of the demons died due to the poisonous breath of the serpent.

            Many good things including the Kamdhenu (the cow fulfills all the wishes), medicines, jewels, Goddess Lakshmi, white horse and many more things came out. During this, due to mud at the bottom, the mountain of the Mandarachal started shrinking. To continue this churning, the mountain should not be shrunk at the bottom. To support this mountain, lord Vishnu took the birth in form of tortoise which is called Kurma in Sanskrit. He supported the mountain on his back. And the churning remained continued. The further story and how the curse lifted, I will tell you in the next avatar called Mohini.

            Kurma avatar depicted the tortoise. In the modern era, Kurma is not worshipped so widely, but taken as a creative incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Kurma avatar also supported the creation of poison from the sea as well as the elixir. This shows the part of Yin and Yang of the modern era. Everything has 2 sides: positive and negative. Both sides are required for the sustenance of the universe.
