To know the answer for this question we must know the seven basic forces and the Hindu gods associated with them.
The seven basic Hindu gods:
They are,
1. Dreaming force - Indra
2. Illusory force - Shakti
3. Voluntary force - Brahma
4. Semi voluntary force - Vishnu
5. Involuntary force - Shiva
6. Status altering force - Shani
7. Compulsive force - Yama
Above these basic gods is the supreme Hindu god Brahman, who is the god selector and coordinator.
The simplification of worship:
Using these seven plus one gods we can solve any problem, real or imaginary. However Using all these gods is a next to impossible task for any Hindu.
Thus, the gods were reduced from the original seven to the central five, then to the central three and finally to just two, Vishnu or Shiva.
Using a single god is extremely easy. If it is Vishnu it is still easier because he is the default Hindu god.
However, using a single god reduces our options to just one.
Therefore, Vishnu incarnates in many forms.
The Semi voluntary force:
Vishnu is symbolic of this force.
In this there is a layer of Voluntary force trapped between the two layers of Involuntary force. Beyond the layers of Involuntary force are the positive and the negative attitudes. Attitudes are the fences of this force.
Thus, the graph of change of our skeletal muscle tone induced by this force would be an s-shaped or sinusoidal wave. Thus, Vishnu is considered as the preserver.
The Ideal force for change of way of life:
The Semi voluntary force is made of two forces viz. Voluntary (Manual) force and Involuntary (Automatic) force. Thus, it enables us to lead two distinct lives simultaneously. Thus, the transition from one way of life to the other is not only smooth but is also reversible. This, makes the Semi voluntary force the ideal force to change our way of life.
The Incarnations:
Every part of this wave as reference state results in a different incarnation of Vishnu
Rama corresponds to the negative attitude, which is responsible for satisfaction. Thus, the behavior of Rama is considered as the ideal.
Krishna is symbolic of the Positive attitude and his intention is success at all costs.
All the other incarnations of Vishnu are associated with a part of the Semi voluntary force and each Incarnations enables us to lead a distinctly different life.
Thus, the many forms of Vishnu enables us to worship just one god and yet have enormous freedom and safety.
