Hindus believe that each human being has a soul. Therefore every person and every living thing contains God within them. If a person was perfect then he/she would become God. This is how avatars or incarnations came about. It is said that when there is a lot of evil in the world then God takes birth on Earth to banish all evil and save us all. There are reputed to be 10 avatars of Vishnu.
