Educational Q&A

When the world falls into peril or disorder, the Supreme sustains and restores it; the image of Viṣṇu raising the Earth highlights divine guardianship and the re-establishment of dharma and stability.

Lomaśa recounts a traditional episode in which the Earth had sunk far below and was then lifted back up by Viṣṇu, emphasizing a cosmic rescue that returns the world to its proper place.
