Vishnu and Lakshmi - Animated Stories [DVD] - SA9040

Vishnu: Lord Vishnu is known as the protector of all mankind. In his avatar as the supreme protector of the universe, Vishnu assumed various different forms to restore the balance between good and evil on earth. This DVD contains two stories from his life. In Vishnu the Protector, he takes the form of a fish and saves King Manu and his sages from a deluge. In Vishnu the Saviour of Heaven, he takes the form of a tortoise to help the devas and that of a boar to kill the evil demon Hiranyaksha. ** Lakshmi: Goddess Lakshmi is known as the Goddess of wealth and prosperity. In India, we worship her and ask for her blessings for wealth and good fortune. In this DVD, we learn about her origin from the ocean and about her marriage to Lord Vishnu. We also learn about her great virtue and generosity in the story True Virtue, when she blesses Prahlada, an ardent devotee of Lord Vishnu. The story of the Goddess of wealth teaches us how she wields her power. In this story, she takes away the riches of King Rawal because of his great arrogance.
