In Hinduism out of the 10 avatars, the first 3 are fish, turtle and boar. They seem to represent evolution of lifeforms as well as human society. We have reached 9, the 10th is a horse faced being, it is either alien, human evolution or a new species that would replace man. Any animals, plants, trees and rocks are also considered divine and have their own festivals. Nepali Kukur tihar is a festival for dogs.

> In Hinduism out of the 10 avatars, the first 3 are fish, turtle and boar. Bhagavatam contains 22 avatars of Vishnu. The arbitrary selection of 10 which sometimes include Buddha is a later day invention. > They seem to represent evolution of lifeforms as well as human society. This is Theospohical interpretation with no basis in actual scripture. It's like using the Book of Mormon to interpret the Old Testament. > the 10th is a horse faced being Kalki is said to ride a horse, not have a horse's head. The horse headed avatar is Hayagriva who oddly enough isn't included in dasavatara.

  Divinity pervades everything and it can manifest itself in any form. The Murthis or deities in every temple however small are such manifestation. Major manifestations are avatars. I took this from this video based on a carving that is more than 2000 years old. https://youtu.be/cZYiH5snMYU https://youtu.be/cZYiH5snMYU
