Hindi Gods       [Return to the Blog]

Sarah Macdonald's book, Holy Cow sparked my interest with Hinduism and their diverse and colorful gods. I have included my five favorite gods. I got the information and pictures from two very good hindu sites: Hindu.net and Indian Heritage where I got the pictures of the gods. Both are great sites to learn about Hindi culture and religion.

Before I display the god portraits I'd like to share my favorite quote from the book: "I thank Hinduism for showing me that there are millions of paths to the divine."

Siva
Siva the Destroyer

Vishnu
Vishnu the Sustainer

Ganesh
Ganesh Remover of Obstacles

Hanuman
Hanuman the Courageous

Lakshmi
Lakshmi Goddess of Prosperity

"I have quite a collection of journals. It's not so much that I write a lot. I have this bad habit of starting a new journal when I start a new chapter in life. Either I have had many turning points in my life, or I just wanted an excuse to buy new journals!"
