Why Does the Vishnu-Puran DVD Not list Caitanya Mahaprabhu as one of the 10?

Dasa Avatara are the 10 famous incarnations of Vishnu. there are countless other incarnations that are not included in this 10, such as Kapila and many others.

 

Sri Chaitanya, being a covered or hidden avatar, would not be in a list of the 10 most famous incarnations.

Oh! This is very suprising to me.

Caitanya Mahaprabhu is worshipped before the chanting of the names of Lord Visnu. He is himself Sri Krsna-Caitanya who spread Vaisnavism and the chanting of the Holy Names. Such a great avatar should be mentioned! Don't you think Prabhu?

 

Hare Krsna

The dasa avatara is an ancient group of 10 incarnations that predates the birth of Chaitanya, so there is no reason His name would be in that list. Jayadeva Goswami has composed a song about these 10 incarnations, and he is from before the appearance of Chaitanya. Many Puranas and acharyas also list the 10.

Probably because he wouldn't have been able to fufill his pasttime as a devotee if everyone had read previously that he's god..

 

This can be said for every avatar including those in the 10 like Vamana, Rama Krishna and the Buddha. If the concept of the dashavatara existed before the time of the Buddha and people knew he was an avatar, then there would be no Buddhism today.

 

Cheers
