In the depths of divine love, the world was reborn through water.
As the earth succumbed to the fury of the Great Flood, humanity faced annihilation.
Sage Manu, forewarned by Lord Viṣṇu, built a mighty boat, gathering seeds of life and the essence of all creatures.
When the waters rose, Viṣṇu manifested as a resplendent fish, guiding Manu’s vessel to safety atop a great northern peak.
With the floodwaters receding, the world emerged anew, vibrant and full of promise.
Thus, Viṣṇu’s compassion not only preserved life but also restored balance to the cosmos, reminding all beings of the cyclical nature of existence and the divine grace that sustains creation through every trial.
