Hi everyone,
There is a very popular story in Hinduism called the 'Churning of the Ocean'. This story has a very profound and deeper meaning and is actually an allegory for the battle and churning that goes on within us all the time.
I have explained both the story itself and its philosophical meaning in the article below.
