In ancient Hindu legend, it is said that when the celestial gods and their enemies, the asuras, began to churn the ocean to obtain the holy nectar of immortality, many divine manifestations occurred. First, an intensely potent poison emerged, which was later consumed by Lord Shiva to protect everyone. Vasuki, the fierce serpent, was used as the rope for churning the ocean and is also considered a divine manifestation.
Ucchaishravas, the divine horse, also manifested from the churning, symbolizing the deep learning attitude of a sincere student. Airavata, the divine elephant, represented the precious hidden wealth. Both are manifestations of God Himself.
A king is not only a ruler but also one who exemplifies morality, justice, and nobility. A king is considered God's manifestation of righteousness. Indra, the king of gods, wields a thunderbolt as his weapon to defeat the asuras and protect the gods. This weapon is also considered a manifestation of God.
Procreation in the world, not only among human beings but all living beings, occurs through copulation, which is triggered by mutual attraction. The God associated with this is Manmtha, also known as Kandarpa, who is also considered a manifestation of God.
