MAIN HINDU GODS:
Brahma - The Creator
Vishnu - The Preserver
Shiva - The Destroyer/Transformer
Saraswati - Goddess of Knowledge/Music/Arts
Lakshmi - Goddess of Wealth/Prosperity
Parvati - The Divine Mother

OTHER GODS:
Ganesh - God of the Intellect and the remover of obstacles
Durga - A fiercer form of Parvati
Rama - The 7th avatar (incarnation) of Vishnu
Hanuman - An ape-like god known for assisting Rama
Surya - God of the Sun
Krishna - The 8th avatar (incarnation) of Vishnu
Kali - Goddess of time and death
Murugan - God of War

Each of the Gods represent one aspect of Brahman.
