Background
Vishnuis regarded as the \"preserver\" of the world who has come down toearth (avatars) ten times to defeat the forces of evil.
The avatars represented here are:
-Matsya (fish)
-Kurma (tortoise)
-Varaha (boar)
-Narasimha (half man-half lion)
-Vamana (dwarf)
-Parashurama (warrior with axe)

-Kalki
Theorder of the Dashavataras has been interpreted to be reflectiveofDarwinian evolution.
Somemodern interpreters sequence Vishnu\'s ten main avatars in a definitive order,from simple life-forms to more complex, and see the Dashavataras as areflection, or a foreshadowing, of the modern Theory of Evolution.
