Mythology Summary
Vishnu is the preserver of the Hindu triad, who sleeps on the cosmic ocean and takes form whenever dharma collapses - fish, boar, dwarf, Rama, Krishna, and more to come. He is order maintained by repeated intervention rather than by force.
Modern Practice
Vishnu is called on for the preservation of what is right, at the start of a duty, and in times when the world seems to be losing its shape. His practice is fidelity to the task in front of you.
