Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Shiva with Goddess Parvati

Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Shiva with Goddess Parvati

Pratihara Dynasty, 10th Century AD, Ajmer Museum

The Hindu Trinity is depicted here. While Lord Brahma sits in meditation, Lord Vishnu flies of on his vehicle, the Garuda. Meanwhile, Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati sit quietly. Interestingly, while Lord Shiva is shown with his consort, the other two Gods are without their consorts. Is it that the God of destruction requires more energy than the God of creation, and the God of maintenance do? A point to ponder.

  1. In reality, Brahma and Vishnu are incarnations of Shiva. Saraswati and Lakshmi are incarnations of Parvati.
