A question on bhagavAn's incarnations.

From the Bhakti List Archives

Narasimhan Krishnamachari • October 24, 2000 


As I was looking through chapter 3 of the first skandam of SrImad
bhAgavatam, I found that the number of incarantions and the sequence of
incarnations of bhagavAn were different from the daSAvatAram sequence
that many of us are familiar with.  Can someone comment on the
difference in the sequence as well as the number (there seem to be 38
incarnations described in SrImad bhAgavatam.  The sequence described
starts with kaumAra, saukara, devarshitva or nArada etc.).  I would
like to know a reference where the details of these incarnations are
explained further.
