About ananta shesha: this enormous thousand-headed snake bears the earth on his head. Traditionally, it was believed that earthquakes were caused whenever the snake moved. Shesha floats on the cosmic ocean and lord vishnu reclines on the coil of his tail. This naga survives even when the entire universe is destroyed. Hence, it is also called ananta (eternal). Shesha accompanies lord vishnu in every incarnation.
