๘๙. กวนเกษียรสมุทร
ครั้งหนึ่งเมื่อเทวดามีฤทธิ์ลดน้อยถอยลง จึงพากันไปร้องเรียนกับพระนารายณ์ พระนารายณ์จึงแนะนำให้ทำพิธีการกวนเกษียรสมุทร เพื่อจะให้ได้น้ำอมฤต ดื่มแล้วจะทำให้เป็นอมตะ มีฤทธิ์มาก เหล่าเทวดาจึงได้ชวนพวกอสูรมาร่วมมือด้วย
ในการกวนเกษียรสมุทรครั้งนั้น ได้ยกเอาภูเขามันทระมาวางจมลงในเกษียรสมุทร โดยมีพระนารายณ์อวตารมาเป็นเต่าใหญ่รองรับภูเขาให้มั่นคง เอาพญานาควาสุกรีมาพันรอบภูเขา ให้เทวดาดึงทางหาง อสูรดึงทางหัว พวกอสูรจึงถูกพญานาคพ่นไฟร้อนใส่ แต่ก็จำทนเพื่อจะได้ดื่มน้ำอมฤต
พอน้ำอมฤตผุดขึ้นจากเกษียรสมุทร พระนารายณ์จึงทรงจำแลงกายเป็นนางอัปสรมาหลอกล่อพวกอสูรไปอีกทางหนึ่ง เหล่าเทวดาจึงพากันมาดื่มน้ำอมฤตจนหมด พวกอสูรพอรู้ว่าพวกตนโดนหลอกก็โมโหโกรธา แต่ก็ไม่สามารถทำอะไรได้
Based on Hinduism mythology, once when deities became less powerful and were threatened by mightier ogres, they asked for help from God Vishnu or Narai. The god recommended they hold a ceremony, known as the “Churning of the Ocean”. to make a magic potion from the ocean water. The potion was believed to bring the deities back their mighty power and eternal life. However, the deities could not carry out the great ritual on their own. So, they asked for help from the ogres.
Finally, the ogres missed the chance to drink the holy water and could not threaten the deities anymore because from then on the deities get back their mighty power and became much more powerful than the ogres.

89. 바다의 소용돌이
힌두교 신화에 따르면 신의 힘이 약해지고 강력한 거인 오그레스가 신을 위협하면 비슈누 혹은 나라이에게 도움을 요청합니다. 신은 “바다의 소용돌이”라는 의식을 행할 것을 추천했는데, 이는 바닷물에서 나온 마법의 묘약이라 신들의 힘을 되찾을 수 있었습니다. 하지만 신은 막중한 의례를 혼자서 행할 수 없습니다. 그래서 그들은 거인 오그레스에게 도움을 청했습니다.
묘약을 만들기 위해 그들은 비슈누의 또 다른 환생인 거대한 거북이가 바다에서 받치고 있고 와수끄리(Wasukree)라는 이름의 나가(신화에 나오는 뱀)가 묶고 있는 만달라 산으로 갔습니다. 거인 오그레스이 나가를 머리로 밀 때 신은 나가의 꼬리를 당겨 나가가 오그레스에게 불을 쏘게 했습니다. 안타깝게도 오그레스는 신의 속임수에 당했고, 묘약을 얻으려는 목적을 이루지 못했습니다.
신성한 물(성수)이 바다에서 올라오는 순간 여자 천사로 변장한 비슈누가 오그레스를 반대편으로 이끌어 거인은 성수를 마실 기회를 잃었습니다. 그들이 돌아와 진실을 알게 되고 오그레스는 몹시 분개했지만, 신들이 이제 막강한 힘을 가지고 있기 때문에 그들을 위협할 순 없었습니다.
