This is the story of Sheshanga, the endless snake, who reigned over the underworld, fought great battles for his Lord Vishnu and followed him to the ends of the universe as his loyal follower and protector. 'Shesha appeared in his true form as the magnificent many-hooded snake and reared up his heads above Vasudeva, forming a protective umbrella over the child who was no other than Lord Krishna...; He was all-powerful, he was as old as the universe, he was the wise serpent-ling.

Sheshanga, the endless snake, was a celestial being with the power of a deva.

He carried the underworld on his many hoods and Lord Vishnu himself rested on his immense coils.

Read about his multiple avatars and magical transformations...
