Facts about Vishnu

Vishnu is the 4th avatar (incarnation) of the supreme god Brahma. He is the preserver of the universe and the one who maintains the cosmic order.

Vishnu is often depicted with four arms, holding a conch shell, a discus, a mace, and a lotus flower. The conch shell represents the sound of the Vedas, the discus represents the power of knowledge, the mace represents the power of justice, and the lotus flower represents spiritual growth.

Vishnu is also known as the "Preserver" and is considered to be the most powerful of the three primary gods in Hinduism, along with Brahma and Shiva.
