Ok so today is the day when Lord Krishna assumes the Mohini rupa(Damsel form). So this lila of the lord is a unique pastime where the lord assumed this mohini rupa to kill the demon Bhasmasura. Bhasmasura was a demon who by his severe tapasya got some extraordinary boon from Lord Shiva which included a boon wherein just by his finger touching a person's head would turn into ashes. So Bhasmasura after getting this boon wanted to test this on his boon giver or Lord Shiva and Lord Shiva not knowing wat to do was fleeing from Bhasmasura's presence. Lord Vishnu who was witnessing all this commotion decided to interfere and set right this anomaly, He devised a plan to teach Bhasmasura a lesson. Lord Vishnu then took the form of a beautiful Damsel or the Mohini Rupa or the form of a Enchantress and then appeared in front of Bhasmasura and Bhasmasura who saw this most beautiful enchantress became captivated and simmply lusted after her. The supreme lord who can also be the cheaters of the cheater enticed and trapped the stupid Asura to Hold his fingers on himself resulting in him turning into ashes. Another beautiful pastime of the mohini avatara was during the churning of the ocean betwween the Asuras and the Devatas. Here the devatas were being denied the nectar that was obtained from the churning of the ocean and the lord being the master and protector of the devatas appeared in the mohini rupa pretending to act as a settlor between the asuras and the devatas and then shrewedly gave away all the nectar to the devatas.
Pls watch this unique and most beautiful form of the lord in his incarnation as a the Mohini Rupa.
