Vaishnavism
is one of the three traditions within Hinduism who worships lord Vishnu as their
main deity. Lord Vishnu is also well known as Narayana and Hari. Lord Vishnu is usually
described blue in color and having four arms. He is depicted as holding lotus
flower in lower left hand, a couch in upper left hand, a gada in lower right
and sudarshana chakara in upper right hand. People worship lord Vishnu directly
or either in ten forms. The most famous forms of his avatars are Rama and
