Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 All the infinite Vishnu murtis of Krishna each have their own Vaikuntha dhama. Some avataras like Mohini are special manifestations and not eternal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudhaya Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 From the Folio Infobase. Letter to: Ekayani, Los Angeles, 25 July, 1970 Srila Prabhupada (excerpt) -- So far the Avataras are concerned there are two types. One is called nitya and the other is called naimittic. Nitya means eternal and namittic Avataras appear for some specific function in the material worlds. Nitya Avataras have their eternal abodes in the spiritual sky from which they may sometimes descend to the material worlds, but naimittic Avataras are expansions of Nitya Avataras for some timely purpose. So the non-human forms of Avataras do not have their planets in the spiritual sky. --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
