The Book of Vishnu

---

Vishnu, the Supreme Being, is the preserver and protector of the world, the guardian of dharma and the destroyer of evil. Seated on Ananta Shesha, the cosmic serpent, he watches over his devotees and rewards the righteous. Whenever dharma is threatened, Vishnu incarnates on earth to restore cosmic order.
This book explores the origins, attributes, and roles of Vishnu, beginning with theories of his possible pre-Vedic roots. It outlines his major forms and avatars, including Matsya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Rama, Krishna, and Kalki. Combining scholarly insight with engaging storytelling, Nanditha Krishna presents a vivid portrait of one of Hinduism’s most revered and powerful deities.
