Churning Of The Ocean: How Gods Defeated Asuras to Claim Immortality l Samudra Manthana l Bhagavata Purana

from Stories Of India Retold · host Nivi Shetty

The Suras (Gods/good) and Asuras (Anti-god/evil) must work together to obtain the precious nectar of immortality, Amrita; in a process called Samudra Manthana or Churning of the Ocean. Along the way, they face many obstacles and even a deadly poison that threatens to destroy the world. From the appearance of divine treasures to Vishnu's clever tricks, this episode explores the intense struggle, wisdom, and lessons learned through compassion, perseverance, unity, and divine intervention. #purana #bharat #samudramanthan #khumbhmela #churningoftheocean   The Bhagavata Purana 2, translated by Bibek Debroy.
