Sage Durvasa’s curse makes not just Indra, the Deva king, but also all the other Devas, lose their powers. The completely shaken Devas rush to Lord Vishnu for help. The Blue Lord suggests that they churn the ocean of milk for Amrut, a divine potion, that would help them get back their lost powers and more. For this, the Devas seek the help of their strong half-brothers, the evil Asuras. With Mount Mandara as the churning rod and the serpent king Vasuki as the rope, the Devas and Asuras begin the churning of the ocean. When the mountain sinks into the ocean without support, it’s Lord Vishnu to the rescue as Kurma, the tortoise. Read the story of Samudra Manthan to know about all the avatars Lord Vishnu takes in this segment to save the situation.
