The Three Main Gods in Hinduism (Trimurti)

There are many, many Gods in Hinduism, all being in some way a small part of the omnipotent Brahman. This video is a simple introduction to the Three Main Gods who are known as the Trimurti.

*In the video I call Hanuman the Monkey King, in all actuality he's the Lieutenant of the Monkey King who was named Sugriva

Shiva is worshipped by all Hindus and not just Tamilians and Srilankans

[rishikasinghal]

There are a lot of mistakes in this.
1. Krishna is not the 1st avatar of Vishnu, he is 8th. Rama is the 7th. Kalki is an avatar yet to come.
2. Krishna did not live until his elderly age. He was always a wise being, and taught about true love and spreading love to everyone not about flirting.
3. When mentioning the Trimurti’s it is also important to talk about the Tridevi’s who are the Trimurti’s shakti (power). Without Goddess Parvati/Durga/Kali (Nature and Destroyer), Shiva would not be able to destruct. Without Goddess Saraswati (Goddess of Knowledge), Brahma wouldn’t be able to create (You need knowledge, teachings and wisdom to create which came from Saraswati). Without Lakshmi (Goddess of Fortune) Vishnu wouldn’t be able to Preserve the Earth.
4. Shiva has a third eye but only opens it for destruction when it is necessary
5. Trimurti except for Brahma are prayed to by most Hindus, not just people of Sri Lanka.
6. Hanuman was an incarnation of Lord Shiva, in monkey form. Both Vishnu and Shiva are supreme gods along with Brahma, that are one, just in 3 forms. That is why Vishnu and Shiva pray to each other, because they pray to ultimate truth.
7. Brahma had only 3 heads due to a sin he did
8. All the Trimurti’s explain that Karma is the biggest teaching and even they themselves follow it.
9. Shiva wears a snake, vasuki, on his neck, and carries Chandra (Moon) on his head, so the moon could live (There is a story about this). He wears animal skins of dead animals that have already died (because he will not kill an animal for his own purpose). He wears them because he does not care about materialistic things such as fancy clothing, he uses the resources he has, meditates, and stays happy.
10. Shiva is not red, and not actually shown with fire. He is shown as a shivling and other icons.
11. You missed the Sudharshan Chakra on Vishnu, as well as the lotus.
12. You missed how he lives in Vaikunt, with Sheeshnag and Lakshmi.


Also, please do not use an accent to pronounce Hindu words. That way, the word is not being pronounced properly, and you are indirectly making fun of it. Please also do not use these depictions of the gods. Please get a picture from the web, that showcases the god’s true holdings and appearance.

I love you taking on Hinduism now! Will you also dwell on the connections between certain Hindu gods and the pantheon?

[amandeep]

Love the way you pronounced everything 😊

[NikhileshSurve]

0:20 "Tri" in "Trimurti" isn't pronounced as "try" but "three" without the "h" sound, it's after the number "3" obviously.
1:58 Warlords? Warlords weren't the only ones who went to war in ancient India. Those conches were blown in wars between armies of waring kingdoms too.
2:40 Your pronunciation of Indian words in the video sounded as if you're trying to speak in Spanish accent 😂
3:05 "Hanuman" wasn't a monkey 'king", their king was "Sugriva" & later his younger brother "Bali" (not sure if Bali island is named after him)

Nice video, but a small correction required in it... Lord Krishna isn't the first Avatar of Lord Vishnu, lord Krishna was the 9th Avatar of God Vishnu.
Rest everything greatly explained.. Especially Lord Brahma's part.

[ShrasRJ]

Great video. Randomly stumbled across your video on Languages of the British Isles, and started binge watching your channel. One correction, Brahma's swan is not called 'vahana'. 'Vahana' is the umbrella term for the mount/vehicle used by the gods, animal or mythical (in Hindi, 'vaahan' means vehicla). The swan is called 'hamsa'. :)

As a Christian, I was always in awe of the Dharmic religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism. Wouldn’t Jesus of Nazareth or Siddhartha Gautama be an avatar from Vishnu? 🤔

[JJboyFlower]

Hi there can I ask you some question
I know that Thailand have this God as well and they named it as the god of love
Are they difference from the India culture ?

[sanjaysemwal]

Vedas was first composed in 6000 years

[Rishabhsingh-eoqt]

Shiva is the most debateable god...😯😯😯

[Aethelwulf_of_Westseaxe]

Hanuman was not the king of the monkeys who faught Ravan with Ram.Hanuman was sort of side kick and loyal bodyguard of Ram.Sugrib was the monkey king who allied with Ram.The backstory behind this is after being exiled by Bali, Sugrib's elder brother and the king of the monkeys, Sugrib came to know Ram.Ram was sort of a man of means.He suggested Sugrib that he should challenge Bali to a single combat and if the battle turns out bad Ram will snipe him from afar.Bali was always a better warrior than Sugrib and after few moments of fight sent Sugrib flying.Ram sniped Bali and Sugrib subjugated the rest of the kingdom to be his vassals.Hanuman was supposedly of royal line too but he abandonned princehood on the pursuit of being Ram's sidekick.Great video, though, thanks.

Krishna is the 8th or 9th avtar, not 1st.

[hadesclymenus]

What about goddess devi who has 3 forms of herself? Parvati.. durga.. kali.. and in early vedic poems and myth there was indra god of thunder and lightning battle.. warrior god also with 3rd eye like Shiva... and was king of gods most powerful of all...

[honestcat]

Shiva is the most worshiped God in Hinduism.
Hanuman was Shiva himself.

[ankushsrana]

One more correction my friend, Lord Hanuman wasn't the King of the Army that helped Lord Ram, That Army's king was "Sughareev" (brother of Bali). Lord Hanuman wasn't part of Sughreev's Kingdom instead Lord Hanuman belonged to a different kingdom, who all alone came and joined hands with Sughreev's Army.

Hi. I've asked this on one of your Pict videos but just to make sure (sorry if it's annoying), what qualifications have you got (university education, historical studies etc.)? This is just because I want to use your stuff in a school project but it would be good to know this in case the teacher asks.

[ancxxx]

also correct information ... hindu have vedas .. you should know about that... they have ekeshwarvad(ONE GO*D).. when you say hindus believes in multiple go* ... at the same time there are other sects who believes in different ways ... HINDUISM IS ONLY RELIGION WHICH HAS LOT OF MULTIPLE IDIOLOGY ACCEPTED and it's for seeker.. kindly correct it .. it's the TRUTH

[maxfarley]

Shiva is the name of the tiger in The Walking Dead.

I really enjoy your videos as usual hilbert 👍🏻😋 can you make a video about the indo-Europeans who are little known either they originated in ancient northern India or southern Russia/Central Asia no one seems to know for sure but what is known is that they were warlike and appear to have heavily influenced European language and genetics.
