CRITICAL: NEVER अवतार. Mithila is the mythological setting of the Ramayana’s Sita-Ram narrative and a historic center of Krishna-Ram Vaishnava devotion (via Vidyapati’s poetic tradition); avatar theology is not abstract background here but a locally cherished, geographically ‘owned’ story. देहधारण must be explicitly distinguished as the eternal Son’s unique, permanent taking of human nature, not one more divine appearance in a story this audience already tells about their own region.
