A Brass Dasavatharam Set refers to a collection of statues or representations of the Ten Avatars of Lord Vishnu, known as the Dasavatharam. In Hinduism, these ten avatars (incarnations) of Lord Vishnu are believed to have appeared on Earth to restore cosmic order and protect the world from evil forces. The ten avatars are highly revered and often depicted in artistic forms, such as brass statues.
The Ten Avatars (Dasavatharam) of Lord Vishnu:
Matsya (The Fish): The first avatar, in which Vishnu took the form of a fish to save the ancient scriptures (Vedas) from a great flood.
Kurma (The Tortoise): Vishnu took the form of a tortoise to support Mount Mandara, which was used as a churning rod during the churning of the ocean.
Varaha (The Boar): In this incarnation, Vishnu appeared as a boar to rescue the Earth, which had been submerged in the ocean.
Narasimha (The Man-Lion): Vishnu appeared as a half-man, half-lion to protect his devotee Prahlada and destroy the demon king Hiranyakashipu.
