Jai Ramanuja,There are many avataras which are excluded in the famous dasavataras like HAMSA,DATTATREYA,NARA ETC..I do not think that in the puranas the no. is mentioned as ten.It always speak of innumerable avataras.The saints have taken mainly the ten avataras for anusandhanam.

The DasA avatAramsare the most prominent. Regards, Malolan Cadambi To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: Srirangasri-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxYour use of Yahoo!
