Mahā Avatārs

Mahā Avatārs

Vishnu Avatārs are an example of mahā-Devas, the grandest of divine Beings with their elaborate stories.

There are considered a total 10 Avatārs of Vishnu, whose forms interestingly parallel those seen in the natural evolution of Biology over millions of years.

Unfortunately most consider only this interpretation of sequential appearance of Avatārs.

In our Yogic model, whether or not the ancient sequence of Avatārs reflects the physical truth is mostly irrelevant.

For us, we must consider the other Avatārs of Vishnu as also occurring simultaneously, and not merely as a sequence of Avatārs occurring solely in geological time, otherwise :

• the effectiveness of the Yuga shift will be limited to just a single Yuga, and 

• worse, the entire exercise would shortly revert the world back to religion and the Avatār as One God on Earth.

Let's look at these Avatārs, observe their parallels in natural evolution, and their relevance today in the external world and internal psyche:

• Matsya - Fish (water residents)

  • the presence of calamitous climate change with water levels rising, and 

  • ability to manage the waters of the hyper-sexualized Svādishtana chakra, and generate creativity

• Kurma - Turtle: (amphibious form)

  • the explosion of sensory inputs in electronic world, conflicting ideologies, and

  • ability to withdraw the senses as in pratyahāhara, being firm in resolving conflict

• Varāha - Boar: (mammalian form)

  • the Earth sinking under the weight of human activity, and

  • ability to retrieve her with our concerted, pointed efforts

• Narasimha - Man-Lion (proto two-legged mammal)

  • Asuric tendencies out of control in the underworld, and

  • ability to control them, perfect for Guru-in-the-Cloud

• Vāmana - Simple Man (early humans)

  • Asuric tendencies across all the worlds, IQ dominated, and

  • ability to quell the inflated egos of the ruling class, with vastly superior intellect and humor

• Parasurāma - Warrior Man (conquering tribes)

  • Military-industrial complex gone crazy, and

  • ability to cut them off completely for a peaceful world order, responsible power

• Rāma - Idealized Man (dutiful individuals)

  • Ultra-liberalized holier-than-thou culture beholden to some idealized unrealizable world, and

  • ability to resolve this harmoniously for equitable growth, perfected society

• Krishna - Inspirational (storytellers)

  • World narratives all competing for space, and

  • ability to weave all in a harmonious inspirational mega-story preserving each one's story too

• Buddha - Clear-Minded (perfected individuals) 

  • • this is an alternative, more appropriate avatār than what occurs in typical Vishnu sequences

  • Messed up minds with overdose of inputs, and

  • ability to create a fresh Mindscape from Shoonyata (zero-state), appeals universally

• Kalki - Unknown Future (the age of AI)

  • Doomers and apocalyptic scenarios, and

  • ability to realize a completely new Yuga for humanity.

When each of these Avatārs are manifested by a collective - simultaneously - then entire group experiences a Mahā Yuga shift, to a new Satya Yuga altogether, not just an intermediate Yuga.
