Nrsimha Kavaca Yajna

Simplesmente por recitar ou usar o Nrsimha Kavaca obtém-se um grande benefício espiritual.

No entanto, pode-se oferecer o Nrsimha Kavaca diretamente a Sri Nrsimhadeva, ao realizar-se um Nrsimha Kavaca Yajna.

Em termos gerais:

Segue-se o procedimento usual do Yajna Vaisnava.

Invoca-se Visnu Agni.

Instala-se Sri Nrsimha com o Nrsimha mula-mantra.

Executa-se o Nrsimha Homa, oferecendo em oblação o Nrsimha Kavaca.

Para um procedimento mais elaborado pode-se oferecer também os Nrsimha Gayatris, o Nrsimha Maha Mantra e o Nrsimha Ashtottara Sata Nama.

Tudo para o prazer e satisfação de Sri Nrsimhadeva.

Sarva-vighna-vinasakari Sri Nrsimhadeva Bhagavan Ki Jaya!!!

Bhakta-pravara Sri Prahlada Maharaja Ki Jaya!!!

Instruções de Ramananda Raya

gopi-anugatya vina aisvarya jnane

bhajileha nahi paya vrajendra-nandane

"A não ser que sigamos os passos das gopis,não podemos alcançar os pés de lótus de Sri Krsna,o filho de Nanda Maharaja. Se alguém esta envolvido com o conhecimento das opulências do Senhor,esta pessoa não pode alcançar os pés de lótus do Senhor,mesmo estando ocupado em serviço devocional."

SIGNIFICADO POR SRILA PRABHUPADA

Uma pessoa pode adorar Laksmi Narayana através do processo de Vidhi Marga,adorando o Senhor através dos princípios regulativos de acordo com o Sastra e as instruções do Guru. Mas a Suprema Personalidade de Deus,Radha Krsna,não pode ser diretamente adorada através deste método.

As trocas amorosas entre Radha Krsna e as gopis estão desprovidas do humor de Laksmi Narayana. O processo de Vidhi Marga,ou seja,seguir os princípios regulativos,é utilizado para adorar Laksmi Narayana,enquanto que o processo de serviço espontâneo-seguindo os passos das gopis de Vrndavana-é transcendentalmente mais avançado e é o processo para adorar Radha Krsna. Não podemos alcançar esta posição elevada enquanto adoramos o Senhor na Sua opulência.

Aqueles que estão atraídos ao amor conjugal entre Radha e Krsna devem seguir os passos das gopis. Somente desta forma é possível executar serviço ao Senhor em Goloka Vrndavana e obter a direta associação de Radha Krsna.

Ten offenses to be avoided when visiting the holy Dham

To blaspheme or to not respect the spiritual master who has revealed the holy Dham.

To think that the holy Dham is temporary.

To commit violence against any resident of the holy Dhama or visitor or the Dhama, or to consider them ordinary people.

To earn money through the worship of the deity or through the chanting of the holy name.

To think that the holy Dham is part of any mundane province or country, such as UP etc., or to consider the holy Dham like other places of pilgrimage related to some demigods.

To try to measure the holy Dham.

To commit sinful activities while you are in the holy Dhama.

To consider Vrindavan Dham to be different from Navadvipa Dham.

To blaspheme against the scriptures, which glorify the holy Dham.

To not have faith and to think that the glories of the holy Dham are an imagination.

Sri Sri Gurv-astaka

Sri Sri Gurv-astaka by Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura

1 samsara-davanala-lidha-loka- tranaya Karunya-ghanaghanatvam praptasya kalyana-gunarnavasya vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is receiving benediction from the ocean of mercy. Just as a cloud pours water on a forest fire to extinguish it, so the spiritual master delivers the materially afflicted world by extinguishing the blazing fire of material existence. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master, who is an ocean of auspicious qualities.

2 mahapraboh kirtana-nrtya-gita- vaditra-madyan-manaso rasena romanca-kampasru-taranga-bhajo vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

Chanting the holy name, dancing in ecstasy, singing, and playing musical instruments, the spiritual master is always glad dened by the sankirtana movement of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Because he is relishing the mellows of pure devotion within his mind, sometimes his hair stands on end, he feels quivering in his body, and tears flow from his eyes like waves. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

3 sri- vigraharadhana-nitya-nana srngaira-tan-mandira-marjanadau yuktasya bhaktams ca niyunjato pi vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is always engaged in the temple worship of Sri Sri Radha and Krsna. He also engages his disciples in such worship. They dress the Deities in beautiful clothes and ornaments, clean Their temple, and perform other similar worship of the Lord. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

4 catur- vidha-sri-bhagavat-prasada- svadv-anna-trptan hari-bhakta-sanghan krtvaiva trptim bhajatah sadaiva vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is always offering Krsna four kinds of delicious food [analyzed as that which is licked, chewed, drunk, and sucked]. When the spiritual master sees that the devotees are satisfied by eating bhagavat-prasada, he is satisfied. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

5 sri-radhika-madhavayor apara- madhurya-lila-guna-rupa-namnam prati-ksanasvadana-lolupasya vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is always eager to hear and chant about the unlimited conjugal pastimes of Radhika and Madhava, and Their qualities, names, and forms. The spiritual master aspires to relish these at every moment. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

6 nikunja-yuno rati-keli-siddhyai ya yalibhir yuktir apeksaniya tatrati-daksyad ati-vallabhasya vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is very dear, because he is expert in assisting the gopis, who at different times make different tasteful arrangements for the perfection of Radha and Krsna's conjugal loving affairs within the groves of Vrndavana. I offer my most humble obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

7 saksad-dharitvena samasta-sastrair uktas tatha bhavyata eva sadbhih kintu prabhor yah priya eva tasya vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

The spiritual master is to be honored as much as the Supreme Lord, because he is the most confidential servitor of the Lord. This is acknowledged in all revealed scriptures and followed by all authorities. Therefore I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master, who is a bonafide representative of Sri Hari [Krsna].

8 yasya prasadad bhagavat-prasado yasyaprasadan na gatih kuto 'pi dhyayan stuvams tasya yasas tri-sandhyam vande guroh sri-caranaravindam

By the mercy of the spiritual master one receives the benediction of Krsna. Without the grace of the spiritual master, one cannot make any advancement. Therefore, I should always remember and praise the spiritual master. At least three times a day I should offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of my spiritual master.

Sri Nrsimhadeva Pranama

Sri Nrsimha Pranama

names te narasimhaya prahladahlada-dayine hiranyakasipor vaksah- sila-tanka-nakhalaye

I offer my obeisances to Lord Narasimha, who gives joy to Prahlada Maharaja and whose nails are like chisels on the stonelike chest of the demon Hiranyakasipu.

ito nrsimhah parato nrsimho yato yato yami tato nrsimhah bahir nrsimho hrdaye nrsimho nrsimham adim saranam prapadye

Lord Nrsimha is here and also there. Wherever I go Lord Nrsimha is there. He is in the heart and is outside as well. I surrender to Lord Nrsimha, the origin of all things and the supreme refuge.


Prayer to Lord Nrsimha (from Sri Dasavatara-stotra, p. 97)

tava kara-kamala-vare nakham adbhuta-srngam dalita-hiranyakasipu-tanu-bhrngam kesava dhrta-narahari-rupa jaya jagadisa hare

O Kesava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari, who have assumed the form of half-man, half-lion! All glories to You! Just as one can easily crush a wasp between one's fingernails, so in the same way the body of the wasp like demon Hiranyakasipu has been ripped apart by the wonderful pointed nails on Your beautiful lotus hands.

Padma PuranaBrahma Khanda 25.15–18Ten offenses to the Holy Name

(1)satam ninda namnah paramam aparadham vitanuteyatah khyatim yatam katham u sahate tad-vigarham
To blaspheme devotees who have dedicated their lives to chanting the holy name of the Lord. The holy name, who is identical with Krsna, will never tolerate such blasphemous activities.

(2)sivasya sri-visnor ya iha guna-namadi-sakalamdhiya bhinnam pasyet sa khalu hari-namahita-karah
To consider the names of Lord Siva or Lord Brahma to be on an equal level with the holy name of Lord Visnu.

(6)hari-namni kalpanam
To consider the glories of the holy name of the Lord as imagination.

(7)namno balad yasya hi papa-buddhirna vidyate tasya yamair hi suddhih
To think that the Hare Krsna mantra can counteract all sinful reactions and one may therefore go on with his sinful activities and at the same time chant the Hare Krsna mantra to neutralize them is the greatest offense at the lotus feet of Hari-nama.

(8)dharma-vrata-tyaga-hutadi-sarva-subha-kriya-samyam api pramadah
To consider the chanting of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra to be one of the auspicious ritualistic mantras mentioned in the Vedas as fruitive activity.

(9)asraddadhane vimukhe ’py asrnvatiyas copadesah siva-namaparadhah
It is an offense to preach the glories of the holy name of the Lord to the faithless.

(10)srute ’pi nama-mahatmyeyah priti-rahito narahaham-mamadi-paramonamni so ’py aparadha-krt
If one has heard the glories of the transcendental holy name of the Lord but nevertheless continues in a materialistic concept of life, thinking “I am this body and everything belonging to this body is mine [aham mameti],” and does not show respect and love for the chanting of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra, that is an offense.

api pramadah
It is also an offense to be inattentive while chanting.

Sri Tulasi Kirtana - Pranama - Pradaksina

Sri Tulasi-kirtana

1 namo namah tulasi! krsna-preyasi radha-krsna-seva pabo ei abhilasi

2 je tomara sarana loy, tara vancha purna hoy krpa kori' koro tare brndavana-basi

3 mor ei abhilas, bilas kunje dio vas nayane heribo sada jugala-rupa-rasi

4 ei nivedana dharo, sakhir anugata koro seva-adhikara diye koro nija dasi

5 dina krsna-dase koy, ei jena mora hoy sri-radha-govinda-preme sada jena bhasi

(1) O Tulasi, beloved of Krsna, I bow before you again and again. My desire is to obtain the service of Sri Sri Radha-Krsna.

(2) Whoever takes shelter of you has his wishes fulfilled. Bestowing your mercy on him, you make him a resident of Vrndavana.

(3) My desire is that you will also grant me a residence in the pleasure groves of Sri Vrndavana-dhama. Thus, within my vision I will always behold the beautiful pastimes of Radha and Krsna.

(4) I beg you to make me a follower of the cowherd damsels of Vraja. Please give me the privilege of devotional service and make me your own maidservant.

(5) This very fallen and lowly servant of Krsna prays, ''May I always swim in the love of Sri Radha and Govinda.


Sri Tulasi Pranama

vrndayai tulasi-devyai priyayai kesavasya ca krsna-bhakti-prade devi satyavatyai namo namah

I offer my repeated obeisances unto Vrnda, Srimati Tulasi Devi, who is very dear to Lord Kesava. O goddess, you bestow devotional service to Lord Krsna and possess the highest truth.


Sri Tulasi Pradaksina Mantra

yani kani ca papani brahma-hatyadikani ca tani tani pranasyanti pradaksinah pade pade

By the circumambulation of Srimati Tulasi Devi all the sins that one may have committed are destroyed at every step, even the sin of killing a brahmana.

Sri Nama Kirtana

Sri Nama-kirtana Chanting of the Holy Names (from Gitavali)

1 yasomati-nandana, braja-baro-nagara, gokula-ranjana kana gopi-parana-dhana, madana-manohara, kaliya-damana-vidhana

2 amala harinam amiya-vilasa vipina-purandara, navina nagara-bora, bamsi-badana suvasa

3 braja-jana-palana, asura-kula-nasana, nanda-godhana-rakhowala govinda madhava, navanita-taskara, sundara nanda-gopala

4 jamuna-tata-cara, gopi-basana-hara, rasa-rasika, krpamoya sri-radha-vallabha, brndabana-natabara, bhakativinod-asraya

1) The lotus feet of our spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service. I bow to his lotus feet with great awe and reverence. By his grace one can cross the ocean of material suffering and obtain the mercy of Krsna.

2) My only wish is to have my consciousness purified by the words emanating from his lotus mouth. Attachment to his lotus feet is the perfection that fulfills all desires.

3) He opens my darkened eyes and fills my heart with transcendental knowledge. He is my Lord birth after birth. From him ecstatic prema emanates; by him ignorance is destroyed. The Vedic scriptures sing of his character.

4) Our spiritual master is the ocean of mercy, the fiend of the poor, and the lord and master of the devotees. O master! Be merciful unto me. Give me the shade of your lotus feet. Your fame is spread all over the three worlds.

1) Just worship Sri Gaurahari, who is always affectionate toward His devotees. He is the same Supreme Godhead, Krsna, who sported in the cowherd pastures of Vraja and stole the hearts of Nanda and Yasoda.

2) Mother Yasoda calls to Krsna, "My dear Damodara, it is very late. Please come right now, sit down in the dining hall, and take Your lunch."

3) On the direction of Nanda Maharaja, Krsna, the holder of Govardhana Hill, sits down, and then all the cowherd boys, along with Krsna's elder brother, Sri Baladeva, sit down in rows to take their lunch.

4) They are then served a feast of sukta and various kinds of green leafy vegetables, then nice fried things, and a salad made of the green leaves of the jute plant. They are also served pumpkin, baskets of fruit, small square cakes made of lentils and cooked down milk, then thick yogurt, squash cooked in milk, and vegetable preparations made from the tower of the banana tree.

5) Then they receive fried squares of mung dahl patties, and urad dahl patties, capatis, and rice with ghee. Next, sweets made with milk, sugar and sesamum, rice flour cakes; thick cooked-down milk; cakes floating in milk; and sweet rice.

6) There is also sweet rice that tastes just like nectar due to its being mixed with camphor. There are bananas, and cheese which is nectarean and delicious. They are also served twelve kinds of sour preparations made with tamarinds, limes, lemons, oranges, and pomegranates.

7) There are puns made with white flour and sugar; puns filled with cream; laddus; and dahl patties boiled in sugared rice. Krsna eagerly eats all of the food.

8) In great ecstasy and joy Krsna eats the rice, curried vegetables, sweets, and pastries cooked by Srimati Radharani.

9) Krsna's funny brahmana friend Madhumangala, who is very fond of Laddus, gets them by hook or by crook. Eating the laddus he shouts, "Haribol! Haribol!~' and makes a funny sound by swapping his sides under his armpits with his hands.

10) Beholding Radharani and Her gopifriends out of the courters of His eyes, Krsna eats at the house of mother Yasoda with great satisfaction.

11) After lunch, Krsna drinks rose-scented water. Then all of the boys, standing in lines, wash their mouths.

12) After all the cowherd boys wash their hands and mouths, in great bliss they take rest with Lord Balarama.

13) The two cowherd boys Jambula and Rasala then bring Krsna pan made with betel nuts, fancy spices, and catechu. After eating that pin, Sri Krsnacandra then happily goes to sleep.

14) While Krsna happily takes His rest on an excellent bedstead, His servant Visalaksa cools Him with a fan of peacock feathers.

15) At mother Yasoda's request the gopi Dhanistha brings remnants of food left on Krsna's plate to Srimati Radharani, who eats them with great delight

16) Lalita-devi and the other gopis then receive the remnants, and within their hearts they sing the glories of Radharani and Krsna with great joy.

17) Thakura Bhaktivinoda, whose one and only Joy is the pastimes of Lord Hari, sings this Bhoga-arati song.

Sri Damodarastaka

Sri Damodarastaka (found in the Padma Purana of Krsna Dvaipayana Vyasa, spoken by Satyavrata Muni in a conversation with Narada Muni and Saunaka Rsi)

"In the month of Kartika one should worship Lord Damodara and daily recite the prayer known as Damodarastaka, which has been spoken by the sage Satyavrata and which attracts Lord Damodara. (Sri Hari-bhakti-vilasa 2.16.198)

(1) To the Supreme Lord, whose form is the embodiment of eternal existence, knowledge, and bliss, whose shark-shaped earrings are swinging to and fro, who is beautifully shining in the divine realm of Gokula, who I (due to the offense of breaking the pot of yogurt that His mother was churning into butter and then stealing the butter that was kept hanging from a swing) is quickly running from the wooden grinding mortar in fear of mother Yasoda, but who has been caught from behind by her who ran after Him with greater speed--to that Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, I offer my humble obeisances.

(2) (Seeing the whipping stick in His mother's hand,) He is crying and rubbing His eyes again and again with His two lotus hands. His eyes are filled with fear, and the necklace of pearls around His neck, which is marked with three lines like a conch shell, is shaking because of His quick breathing due to crying. To this Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, whose belly is bound not with ropes but with His mother's pure love, I offer my humble obeisances.

(3) By such childhood pastimes as this He is drowning the inhabitants of Gokula in pools of ecstasy, and is revealing to those devotees who are absorbed in knowledge of His supreme majesty and opulence that He is only conquered by devotees whose pure love is imbues with intimacy and is free from all conceptions of awe and reverence. With great love I again offer my obeisances to Lord Damodara hundreds and hundreds of times.

(4) 0 Lord, although You are able to give all kinds of benedictions, I do not pray to You for the boon of impersonal liberation, nor the highest liberation of eternal life in Vaikuntha, nor any other boon (which may be obtained by executing the nine processes of bhakti). O Lord, I simply wish that this form of Yours as Bala Gopala in Vrndavana may ever be manifest in my heart, for what is the use to me of any other boon besides this?

(5) O Lord, Your lotus face, which is encircled by locks of soft black hair tinged with red, is kissed again and again by mother Yasoda, and Your lips are reddish like the bimba fruit. May this beautiful vision of Your lotus face be ever manifest in my heart. Thousands and thousands of other benedictions are of no use to me.

(6) O Supreme Godhead, I offer my obeisances unto You. O Damodara! O Ananta! O Vishnu! O master! O my Lord, be pleased upon me. By showering Your glance of mercy upon me, deliver this poor ignorant fool who is immersed in an ocean of worldly sorrows, and become visible to my eyes.

(7) 0 Lord Damodara, just as the two sons of Kuvera--Manigriva and Nalakuvara--were delivered from the curse of Narada and made into great devotees by You in Your form as a baby tied with rope to a wooden grinding mortar, in the same way, please give to me Your own prema-bhakti. I only long for this and have no desire for any kind of liberation.

(8) 0 Lord Damodara, I first of all offer my obeisances to the brilliantly effulgent rope which binds Your belly. I then offer my obeisances to Your belly, which is the abode of the entire universe. I humbly bow down to Your most beloved Srimati Radharani, and I offer all obeisances to You, the Supreme Lord, who displays unlimited pastimes.

Prasada Sevaya

Prasada Sevaya Songs for the Honoring of Spiritual Food
(from Gitavali) part one (this first song should be sung before honoring the Lord's prasada)

1 bhai-re sarira abidya-jal, jodendriya tahe kal, jive phele visaya-sagore ta'ra madhye jihwa ati, lobamoy sudurmati, ta'ke jeta kathina samsare

2 krsna baro doyamoy, koribare jihwa jay, swa-prasad-anna dilo bhai sei anna-mrta pao, radha-krsna-guna gao, preme dako caitanya-nitai

O Lord, this material body is a place of ignorance, and the senses are a network of paths to death. Somehow, we have fallen into this ocean of material sense enjoyment, and of all the senses the tongue is most voracious and uncontrollable; it is very difficult to conquer the tongue in this world. But You, dear Krsna, are very kind to us and have given us such nice prasada, just to control the tongue. Now we take this prasada to our full satisfaction and glorify You Lord-Radha and Krsna--and in love call for the help of Lord Caitanya and Nityananda.

anandambhdhi-vardhanam prati-padam purnamritasvadanam
sarvatma-snapanam param vijayate shri-krishna-sankirtanam
Glory to the Shri Krishna sankirtana (congregational chanting of the Lord's holy names), which cleanses the heart of all the dust accumulated for years and extinguishes the fire of conditional life, of repeated birth and death. That sankirtana movement is the prime benediction for humanity at large because it spreads the rays of the benediction moon. It is the life of all transcendental knowledge. It increases the ocean of transcendental bliss, and it enables us to fully taste the nectar for which we are always anxious.
(2)
namnam akari bahudha nija-sarva-shaktis
tatrarpita niyamitah smarane na kalaha
etadrishi tava kripa bhagavan mamapi
durdaivam idrisham ihajani nanuragahah
O my Lord, Your holy name alone can render all benediction to living beings, and thus You have hundreds and millions of names, like Krishna and Govinda. In these transcendental names, you have invested all Your transcendental energies. There are not even hard and fast rules for chanting these names. O my Lord, out of kindness You enable us to easily approach you by Your holy names, but I am so unfortunate that I have no attraction for them.
(3)
trinad api sunicena
taror api sahishnuna
amanina manadena
kirtaniyah sada harihi
One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige, and should be ready to offer all respect to others. In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly.
(4)
na dhanam na janam na sundarim

O almighty Lord, I have no desire to accumulate wealth, nor do I desire beautiful women, nor do I want any number of followers. I only want your causeless devotional service, birth after birth.
(5)

O son of Maharaja Nanda [Krishna], I am Your eternal servitor, yet somehow or other I have fallen into the ocean of birth and death. Please pick me up from this ocean of death and place me as one of the atoms at Your lotus feet.
(6)
nayanam galad-ashru-dharaya

O my Lord, when will my eyes be decorated with tears of love flowing constantly when I chant Your holy name? When will my voice choke up, and when will the hairs of my body stand on end at the recitation of Your name?
(7)
yugayitam nimeshena
chakshusha pravrishayitam
shunyayitam jagat sarvam
govinda-virahena me
O Govinda! Feeling Your separation, I am considering a moment to be like twelve years or more. Tears are flowing from my eyes like torrents of rain, and I am feeling all vacant in the world in Your absence.
(8)
ashlishya va pada-ratam pinashtu mam
adarshanan marma-hatam karotu va
yatha tatha va vidadhatu lampato
mat-prana-nathas tu sa eva naparaha
I know no one but Krishna as my Lord, and He shall remain so even if He handles me roughly by His embrace or makes me brokenhearted by not being present before me. He is completely free to do anything and everything, for He is always my worshipful Lord, unconditionally.

Sambandha - Abhidheya - Prayojana

"Os Gaudiya Vaisnavas que seguem estritamente a linha de Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, adoram a Divindade, cantando os sons transcendentais criados para desenvolver um sentido da relação transcendental individual com o Senhor Supremo (Sambhanda) e a reciprocidade de melosidades de afecto mútuo (Abhydheya) e finalmente alcançar o sucesso desejado no serviço amoroso (Prayojana).

Estas três deidades (Madana-Mohana,Govindaji,Gopinatha) são adoradas em três etapas diferentes do progresso individual.

Os seguidores de Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu seguem escrupulosamente estes princípios de aproximação."

Vaisesika - Teoria Atômica Védica. (Kanada)

Sankhya - Dualismo Não Teísta. (Kapila)

Yoga - Auto-disciplina e Auto-realização. (Patanjali)

Karma-Mimansa - Elevação através da execução do dever. (Jaimini)

Vedanta - A conclusão da Revelação Védica. (Vyasadeva)

Todas estas aceitam a autoridade dos Vedas.
Porém, o sistema do Vedanta refuta cada um destes sistemas.

Além destes cinco sistemas de Filosofia Védica o Vedanta-sutra refuta quatro sistemas de pensamento Budista, a teoria dos Jainistas e as Escolas Pasupata e Shakti, que não reconhecem a autoridade dos Vedas.

"Existem seis tipos de encarnações (Avatars) de Krsna.Estão incluidas as encarnações de Vishnu (Purusha Avatars), e as encarnações para realizar passatempos (Lila Avatars)."

"Existem encarnações que controlam as qualidades materiais (Guna Avatars),encarnações que aparecem durante o reinado de cada Manu (Manvantara Avatars),encarnações para diferentes milênios (Yuga Avatars),e encarnações de entidades vivas com poder (Saktyavesa Avatars)."
