| HINDU GODS |
Hinduism is supposed to be 'apauruseya', i.e., of impersonal origin & so also are
the Gods of Hinduism. They are eternal & though the deities appear to be different
& independent, they are really facets of the same Brahman, the Supreme God.
As Sri Ramakrishna says, there can be as many spiritual paths as there are spiritual
aspirants & similarly there can really be as many Gods as there are devotees to suit
the moods, feelings, emotions & social background of the devotees.
The Hindu scriptures were eloquent while describing the qualities of God. He is
all-knowing & all powerful. He is the very personification of justice, love & beauty.
He is ever ready to shower His grace, mercy & blessings on His creation.
From the Rig Veda, we come to know of the vedic gods eight Vasus, eleven Rudras,
twelve Adityas, Indra & Prajapathi, being the Gods of earth, the heavens & the
space.
The main Hindu Gods as we accept today can be broadly classified as Saiva Gods
(Siva, His consort, His sons, His other forms), Vaishnava Gods (Vishnu, His
consort, His various avatharams) & Sakthi or Saktha (Forms of Goddess Sakthi).
