It might be easily mistaken to be an old epic describing a war,
but it is the truth of our lives and this is the essence of the Gita.

Matsya Avataram
Disaster could surpass the sea's tide limit,
and sink the world, which has forgotten the roots of Dharma.
So, he instruced Satyavratha,
and helped in protecting of the world,
A fish showed the naval direction,
and this is the evidence of time's progress being anchored.

Kurma Avataram
The great duty to be performed was not bearable,
frustration of not getting the desired had been swept.
They tried and impatience,helpless swept through
 the patient turtle defeated the defeat.
This is the secret of the Milky Way

Adhivaraha Avataram
Those insane who created shivers,carried the earth and tried to immerse it into the cosmic seas,
were pierced through his tusks
And he blessed the resolute,
The two-tusked warrior's divine sound, the aadhi-varaha(board) form.

Narasimha Avataram
Where?
Why did your Hari hide? of fear!
Ask him to come out
Can he face me and win? By strengthening?
Ask the land on which you are standing
Ask the life in your pulse
Ask the warmth of your blood
Ask the air in your breath
Ask the sky under your step
Join the man and the hari in you
And show that you are the narahari

Unmattha mathanga bangikathu kakavikathi
Hantru sankrathanee krudanee veedanee jagathi
Ahamu radhamai yethike avanikidhe asali nihathi
Aakatayula nihati anivaryamavu niyathi
Shitha hasthi hatha mastha kaarinaka savakaasiyo...
Kroorasi krosi hruthadaya damstula dosi masi cheya mahitha yagnam

This paragraph is about Hiranyakashyapa. His ego had surpassed limits and he began to question the existence of god.

This is the real death for those who ego becomes a chariot and searches the whole earth
Ignorant fools death can't be avoided, its decided.
This is the mahitha yagnam(mahitha means) to burn the cruel,mercy-less evils to ashes.

Vamana(Trivikrama) Avataram
The universe is Immeasurable,Unexpectable,Clear,Endless
A small form of vishwam is this human form
Our half knowledge mirages it to be a dwarf form
Trivikrama had conquered the three worlds with three steps

Whatever is happening is the lord's divine drama
Whatever is happening is the lord's divine drama

Bhargava(Parashurama) Avataram
Sins had grown as a tree, unbearable for the earth
And didn't let the dharmagyanis grow
The lord had become Parashurama..Bayadha-bheema
He remains as the idol of Dharma's existence
Bhargava is Kshatriya Brahmana(Shrotriya)

Sri Rama Avataram
Devoid of glory, devoid of magic,
In a believable manner, without any secrets,
he was born as a human and he lived as a human.
To remain as a jewel in history of the earth,
is possible, and to prove this the lord came down to the earth as Rama.

Sri Krishna Avataram
These many roles these many characters.
The gnana(knowledge)-darpanam(mirror) to introduce you to yourself,
is only krishnavataram, ever since the origin of this universe.

The Ashta Siddhis and the Viswaroopam in you
Animada,Mahimaga,Garimaga,Lakhimaga,Praptiga
Pragamyavartiga,Eesatvamuga,Vasistvamuga

• Aṇimā: reducing one's body even to the size of an atom
• Mahima: expanding one's body to an infinitely large size
• Garima: becoming infinitely heavy
• Laghima: becoming almost weightless
• Prāpti: having unrestricted access to all places
• Prākāmya: realizing whatever one desires
• Iṣṭva: possessing absolute lordship
• Vaśtva: the power to subjugate all

When you recognize these eight siddhis in you,
You will see viswaroopam in your very own roopam

Lose vision over others(stop bothering about others),
Bow down, join your hand and become the student,
you are your own guru, who will end your curiosity.
