Vishnu in a boar (Varaha) avatar rescues Bhudevi (earth)
... that the medieval era Varaha Upanishad(Varaha pictured) states that
moksha is the state when a man does not shrink out of fear from the world, nor the world shrinks from him of fear?
ALT1: ... that the Varaha Upanishad(Varaha pictured) is a Hindu Yoga text that asserts nonviolence, truthfulness, compassion, forgiveness and non-hypocrisy are necessary
Yamas (virtues)?
GA approved 2 days before nomination. New enough, long enough, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. ALT0 and ALT2 hook refs verified and cited inline; ALT1 hook ref AGF and cited inline. However, I think ALT2 is the best for a general audience, and together with the image of the
Rooster pose, which is freely-licensed, makes for a great lead hook. QPQ done. Good to go.
