The oneness within God
(Hinduism)
- What are murtis?
- Murti Literally means 'one in many forms'
- Murtis are the embodiment of the divine, or Brahman. Each murti represents a different part
of Brahman.
- Murti Literally means 'one in many forms'
- Examples of murtis
- Shiva
- The Auspicious One" is one of the three major deities of Hinduism. He is the chief deity within
Shaivism, one of the three most influential denominations in contemporary Hinduism.
- Shiva is know as the destroyer
- Shiva is the third god in the Hindu triumvirate. The triumvirate consists of three gods who are
responsible for the creation, upkeep and destruction of the world. The other two gods are Brahma and
Vishnu. Brahma is the creator of the universe while Vishnu is the preserver of it. Shiva's role is to
destroy the universe in order to re-create it. Hindus believe his powers of destruction and recreation
are used even now to destroy the illusions and imperfections of this world, paving the way for
beneficial change. According to Hindu belief, this destruction is not arbitrary, but constructive. Shiva is
therefore seen as the source of both good and evil and is regarded as the one who combines many
contradictory elements.

- Krishna
- Radha and Krishna are the divine couple that rules love, romance and the aesthetic sense. Radha was
foremost among the milkmaids of Vrindavan, as the incarnation of Lakshmi, Vishnu's spouse and
Krishna's obvious favorite. Love and devotion may also find beautiful expression in the relationship
between lovers. In India, women often see their husbands as Krishna, while men see their wives as
Radha, the beloved. When men become gods and women goddesses, then we do not see the
imperfections, and see only perfection, divinity. Surrender and serving each other are the keys to any
good relationship, which becomes a rehearsal of surrender to the universe and the divine.
- People consider Krishna their leader, hero, protector, philosopher, teacher and friend all rolled into
one. Krishna has influenced the Indian thought, life and culture in myriad ways. He has influenced
not only its religion and philosophy, but also into its mysticism and literature, painting and sculpture,
dance and music, and all aspects of Indian folklore
