Kalki avtar chapter contains 586 Verses. The Chaubis Avtar is part of all five known major historical variants of Dasam Granth, but they are sequenced differently in these editions. The text is notable for naming Jaina Arihanta as an avatar of Vishnu who practiced asceticism, forbade Yajna and Himsa. The text names Buddha as the 23rd avatar of Vishnu, adds Brahma also as avatar of Vishnu, the last two in a manner similar to the Puranas tradition of Hinduism. However, unlike many regional Hindu texts, the Chaubis Avtar avatar mentions many more Vishnu avatars. The verses and composition is martial, stating that avatar of Vishnu appears in the world to restore good and defeat evil, but asserts that these avatars are not God, but agents of the God that is never born nor dies. The predominant part of the text is in Braj language of north India. (en)
