It was declared that Rama was born of the Paayasam which was brought by
the deity from out of the sacrificial fire. No Avathaar is born flesh and
blood, including this Avathaar. The body of the Avataar is Chith (awarenessful)
substance; it is not Jada (inert) like other materials. The embryo of ordinary
morals is Jalodhakashaayi (enveloped in watery stuff); the embryo of the
Avathaar is encased in Ksheerodakashaayi (the pure white milk of holiness).
That is why in the make-up of the Avathaar, there is no blemish, there is no
trace of Guna.
