Guest guest Posted January 27, 1999 Report Share Posted January 27, 1999 Dear devotees, The day of Jan 28 is observed as Lord Varaha's appearance day. The pastimes of this third avatara of Lord Vishnu are described like this: When her child falls in a well, the mother because of excessive parental affection (vatsalya) jumps in and saves it. Similarly when earth (prthivi) was sinking in the underworld, the Lord took the form of a boar and in the twinkling of an eye dived in and brought her out. (Sri Pillan's Tiruvaymoli 7.5.5) Visit Sri Varaha website at www.varaha.avatara.org on His appearance day. Gerald Surya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
