Lord Vishnu: The Preserver

Vishnu is the second deity of the Trimurti, responsible for preserving and protecting the universe. Whenever dharma declines, he incarnates on earth to restore balance. His ten avatars (Dashavatara) span from Matsya the fish to Kalki the future warrior. Vaishnavism, centered on Vishnu worship, is one of Hinduism's largest traditions with millions of devotees worldwide.
