Description

Meaning :

Description :

Kurma was the second Avatar of Vishnu,occurred in Satya yuga.

Purana scripture indicates that the sageDurvasa had given a garland to Indra, the king of Gods. Indra placed thegarland around his elephant, but the animal trampled it, insulting the sage.Durvasa then cursed the gods to lose their immortality, strength, and divinepowers. After losing the kingdom of heaven, they approached Vishnu for help.

He advised that they drink the nectar ofimmortality to regain their glory. To obtain it, they needed to churn the oceanof milk, a body of water so large they needed Mount Mandara as the churningstaff, and the serpent Vasuki as the churning rope. The Devas were not strongenough to churn on their own, and declared peace with their foes, the Asuras,to enlist their help.

Finally, Mount Mandara churned, but the forcewas so great the mountain began to sink into the ocean of milk. Taking the formof the turtle Kurma by lord vishnu , Vishnu bore the mountain on his back asthey churned the waters. Fourteen precious things arose from the turbulentocean, culminating with Dhanvantari, the physician of the gods, who broughtwith him the nectar of immortality.

The Asuras immediately took the nectar, andquarreled amongst themselves. Vishnu then manifested himself as the beautifulMohini and tricked the Asuras to retrieve the potion, which he then distributedto the Devas. Though the Asuras realize the trick, it was too late the Devashad regained their powers, and were then able to defeat their foes.
