Description

Avatar is a phisical form what the god Vishnu asumes to help the hummanity.
The first is Matsya, fish that rescues Veda, plants and animals.
The second is Kurma, the tortoise that supports the churn of the ocean to obtain treasures dissolved in the ocean of milk, creating the soma to the other gods.
The third is Varaha, the boar that raise the earth from the bottom of the sea.
The forth is Narasimha a man-lion who defies classification and overpowers mortals who seek to outwit death.
The fifith is Vamana, the dwarf who claims the sky from the gods and buries the demons in the underbelly of the earth.
The sixth is Purashurama, the angry man, Rama with an axe. Priest who turns to violence to kill unrighteous kings and unchaste women.
The seventh is Rama, the perfect man, king of Ayodha who uploads old rules at the cost of personal life.
The eighth is Krishna, the divine statesman who shrewdly changes rules.
The nineth is Sidarta Gautama, the Buddah. Or Balarama in other versions, Buddah is unpopular in hinduism.
The last is Kalki, the mighty warrior who is expected to appear at the end of Kali Yuga, the time period in which we currently exist, to rid the world of the oppression of its unrighteous rulers and reset the cicle of existence.
