God in Hinduism

Because there are so many gods and goddesses, it can be perceived as a polytheistic religion, but in fact they believe that Brahman is one and all other gods have different manifestations. And the gods whose name you will often hear:

- Brahman - Creator of the universe

- Vishnu - God who keeps the universe in balance and harmony. Vishnu manifests itself in different ways depending on the situation. There are many different avatars like Rama, Krsna, Lakshimi, Sarasvati.

Lord of destruction. They believe that the universe is occasionally destroyed by Lord Shiva and re-created by Brahman. Cyclicity is a very important image in Hinduism.

- Ganesha - God who removes obstacles, brings luck, opens the way. The elephant face is depicted with a human body.
