Brahma

BRAHMA
Brahma is part one of the three main gods of Hinduism. He is known to be the creator of the universe and of all beings. Due to an ancient legend that shows us how Brahma cheated in a contest meant to test one's abilities, Brahma was cursed, and was told that he was never going to be worshipped, yet, he will still retain his position of one of the three main gods of Hinduism. Brahma's consort is Saraswati, the goddess of wisdom. In the picture below, Brahma appears seated on a lotus (a symbol of glorious existence), He has four heads and hands. Each hand is holding a sacificial tool (sruva), the Vedas (knowledge), a water pot (kamandalu) and a rosary for its judgment between good and bad.
