A great informative poem about the incarnations of Lord Vishnu. All Hindus know it but for a non-Hindu it's a work that helps them to understand Hinu mythology. When we start understanding each other we start learning the lesson of coexistence.
Thank you so much Akhtar Sahab! You are a great human being! To know each other's religion and respect them is a quality rare. Most important in life is to co-exist with plenty of love and peace.
I am intrigued with poetry from various cultures, the phrases and settings accompanied with beliefs both old and new add a versatile spice that I adore, I think this makes poetry rich and encourages creativity for those who are willing to read beyond their own style....thank you for posting this.

A long read, but it was worth it, I love these stories from the early days, you have done well with this translation. Thanks Geeta
Thank you for the patience, Loke. These ten stories are rather long. I have shortened them to the best of my ability. It is also rather strenuous to write long poems. Thanks again. God bless
