Story of Samudra Manthan - Page 2

Following the instructions of Lord Vishnu, the demigods approached the leaders of the demons, and an agreement was reached, after which they all left for the ocean of milk to start the churning. The Samudra manthan started with Asura's who were under the leadership of the mighty Bali Maharaja, a descendant of the great demoniac king Hiranyakashapu and Deva's under the leadership of Lord Indra.

Thank you so much for the story! Just think that the bolded bit might not be true. Kurma Avatar takes place during Samudra Manthan, so how does Bali show up, when he is not born until after Narasimha avatar and is alive during Vamana avatar?

Can anyone explain this to me, or is it just a mistake?

And did Parvati take the Adi Shakti roop to hold Shiv's neck?

He had it like a coke & kept it only in his throat, that's his choce.

Even Brhmaji & Vishnuji are immortal but everyone turned to Shivji for solution. Including Paravti everyone was worried of the effects but he was calm, didn't allow a single drop to fall down.
