Matsya Avatar – The Fish Incarnation
Lord Vishnu incarnated Matsya
avatar in Sat – Yug. According to the Bhagvad Purana, one day Lord Brahma
(creator) approached Lord Vishnu (preserver) and said that he had foreseen a
PRALAYA (disaster) that would occur soon and was worried for the safety of the
Vedas*, which could be stolen. Lord Vishnu assured Brahmaji that he would take
care of everything.
One day when Lord Brahma was in
deep sleep the Vedas* happened to slip out of his possession. At that moment an
asura, named HAYAGRIVA, who was watching this thought that, “This is my golden
opportunity, I should absorb these vedas which are falling out of the Brahma’s
Mouth.” Hayagriva swallowed the four Vedas, and hid them deep inside the
ocean.
Without the knowledge of the Vedas all forms of life would die. But
Vishnuji, (the preserver-God) saw Hayagriva absorbing the Vedas. He thought to
himself that, “The PRALAYA (destruction) was to follow
As God was wondering what was
to be done, he saw the pious Sage Satyavrata (also known as Vaivasvata
Manu) who was a loyal devotee of Lord Vishnu. Satyavrata was in the
river at sunrise to take a bath and do his meditaion and payers. God
thought,” I will take the form of a fish and retrieve the Vedas and my devotee
(Satyavrata) will help in this. He shall live through the Pralaya.” Thinking
this Lord Vishnu took the form of a fish and as Satyavrata scooped up the next
handful of water to offer it to his ancestors a tiny fish jumped and
landed in his palms. Seeing this poor creature he thought that it must be very
frightened and that he should put it back into the river.
As he was about to do so the
fish said, “O noble soul, if you throw me into the water, big creatures might
swallow me up. I have come to you for shelter. Will you disown me like that ?”
Satyavrata took pity and told the fish not to worry as he will take care of
her. He put the fish into his KAMANDALU and went back to his hermitage. Overnight, the fish grew too big to be in the Kamandalu.
The fish requested him to move
him to a larger vessel. Satyavrata did so but soon the fish became too big to
fit into that larger vessel. Addressing the Sage, fish said that he should
protect him and find a suitable living space for him. Satyavrata then emptied
the vessel into a large pond near his hermitage along with the fish. But, in no
time the fish grew as large as the pond and filled it. Then the fish urged Sage
to take it to a large and deep lake.
Although Satyavrata took it to
several lakes, one larger than the other, the fish kept growing bigger and
bigger. It went on asking for larger and larger living space. Satyavarata got
vexed and decided to put it into the ocean. While he reached the ocean, the
fish addressed him, “Oh Sage, do not put me into the ocean, I am sure to be
swallowed by the gigantic creature there.”
Satyavrata became suspicious
now. He was despairing to know how that wonderful tiny fish could grow so big
in one day that it has covered the largest lake. In a flash, he realized that
it was Lord Vishnu in the form of a fish. Satyavrata immediately bowed before
the fish and prayed to be told why God had appeared in the form of a fish?
The Lord told his devotee,
“Just a week from now, the ocean will rise and flood the entire Universe for
PRALAYA (dissolution/end of creation). At that time a large boat will
appear on the horizon. He asked Satyavrata to collect herbs and seeds of all
plants, and one animal of each type required for the next spell of
creation and get into the boat and wait for me. Take VASUKI, the king of
Serpents, and the SAPTHA RISHIS* *(seven Sages) along with you. I would then
appear as a fish to propel the boat to Mount Himavan”.
After addressing Satyavrata
Lord Vishnu left to fulfill his mission (retrive the Vedas). When Hayagriva saw
the gigantic fish approaching towards him he was overtaken by fear but he knew
if he opened his mouth the Vedas will be lost. He held the VEDAS tightly in his mouth. But soon the Divine Fish
slew him and recovered the VEDAS and restored them back to BRAHMA to resume the
function of CREATION at an appropriate time.
As foretold by the DIVINE FISH,
seven days later PRALAYA (deluge) set in and huge tidal waves started covering
the earth. Sage Satyavrata, the Saptha Rishis and all the living creatures
waited by the shore for the boat to appear. Suddenly a huge vessel appeared and
all of them climbed in the boat while it was being tossed around in that
turbulent ocean.True to his word, Lord appeared in the form of a golden
gigantic fish and it had a horn.
Fish said loudly,” Fasten the
boat to my horn, using Vasuki as a rope. Do not worry, none of you will be
harmed.” Satyavrata tied the boat to the fish using the royal
serpent Vasuki. This way the fish took all of them to Mt Himavan and kept
them there till the flood was over.Lord VISHNU in this manner saved his true
Devotees from PRALAYA (destruction) so as to hand down the divine knowledge to
the next generation and saved the VEDAS from destruction and ensured CREATION
after DESTRUCTION.
* Vedas means knowledge
and they are one of the holy Scriptures of Hindus which remains in the mouth of
the Supreme Lord – BRAHMA. Without the Vedas creation of the new world cannot
take place and with the aid of Vedas, Brahmaji (the creator God), performs his
role. There are 4 kinds of Vedas – the Rigveda, the Yajurveda, the Samaveda and
the Atharvaveda.
** SAPT RISHIS – The
Saptarishi are the primeval teachers who continue to guide humanity to the
secrets of life and universe.
