Most of the Avatars of Vishnu were also all men.
Maybe he prefers to come down to earth as males.

As per mythology Vishnu came as a female- Mohini during amritmanthan 😆 As Mohini He is said to have enticed even Lord Shiva !

Hmm, I never knew about the 25 avataras. Now that you mentioned Mohini avatara I looked up and looks like there are 25 Vishnu avataras of which the ten well known are the maha avataras. Hmm. Maybe Lalitha can explain the difference between the 25 and 10. 😊

Well Shiva is said to have the half man/half woman form.

Basically God is the infinite, whereas manifestations (avatar) can be male and female or even animal (male and female) maybe even alien who knows. God is actually supposed to be quality-less (in my perception of Hinduism)

Anyways, the gender of father and son is obvious, but what is the gender of the Holy Ghost? Just had me wondering.

joe sorry dude i disagree with u here

true belief in God is believing believing that there is God without seeing

then on the day of judgement God will say u believed in me without the need to see

u are a true believer n one will go to Jannah

n u talk abt seeing God before believing dude just look around u everything that u see has been created by The Almighty

Yes faith and confidence is important.

Funny thing is that these qualities like love, faith etc although cannot be seen can be very clearly felt and after a while they become very real and stays with us.

It applies to both positive and negative emotions.

Similarly if you have prayed or chanted for sometime the vibrations remain in our mind and body long after we have stopped doing so. Baz you know what I am talking about.😊
