Hindu Gods and Goddesses

Hinduism is a pantheistic religion. For those who are not familiar with the term pantheistic – it equates God with the universe. Moreover, the Hindu religion is built on a theology of polytheistic beliefs – populated with myriad gods and goddesses who personify aspects of the one true God, allowing individuals an infinite number of ways to worship based on their family traditions, community, regional practices, and other influential elements.

The gods and goddesses, often referred to as deities, are very important to everyone’s day-to-day life. Each god and/or goddess represents a different element and is resourceful in their own right. With that said, each deity possesses distinct qualities that represent a unique personality. We as individuals on earth, mirror some of these personalities. Which god or goddess do you think you resemble? Take the quiz and find out now!

When you look at your circle of friends, you would label yourself as:

The organized friend. You’re the one your friends look to when it comes to planning parties, get togethers or events.

The humorous friend. You’ve always got a prank up your sleeve.

The teacher. You’re always willing to give your insight and provide a helping hand.

The watcher. You’re always looking out for everyone around you and making sure that everyone has what they need.

You go to your friend’s house for a party. You notice that your friend seems a little overwhelmed. What do you do?

You jump right in and take over. You create stationary tables for the guests and create a food assembly line – so things can run smoothly. You’re emptying the trash can before it reaches capacity and you’re loading the dishwasher before anyone even asks.

You lighten the mood by retelling you and your friend’s funniest moments together. You’re super personable and make it a point to say hello to everyone.

You find yourself helping the little ones. Whether it’s reading a story, playing a game, or coloring – you want to be resourceful and keep the children occupied.

You don’t want to seem controlling, so you back off and allow your friend to host the party. However, you keep a close eye on anyone and if they’re in need of an extra plate or help with something, you’re totally on it.

If you have free time, which of these activities seem like the most fun?

Organizing your house. You’re always thinking of new ways things can be more functional.

Put on a movie. You love a great comedy.

Read. You especially love to read memoirs and learn about exciting people.

You like to have alone time and take a nap. You like when it’s raining outside because the sound of the rain is soothing – and someone may even find you, once in a while, dancing in the rain.

When you face a problem, how do you react?

List the pros and cons of the issue. You need to get everything on paper, so you can visualize a solution.

Brush it off. You tend to solve issues by using making light of the situation.

Over analyze everything. You try not to over think things, but it’s just how you’re wired.

Sit back and soak it in. You don’t like to talk things out because you feel like you’re able to solve issues internally.

Your idea of a perfect gift would be:

Something useful, that you use on a daily basis. You hate getting clutter or things you wouldn’t really use.

A funny DVD or book. You love to laugh.

Something new and exciting. You love to learn about new cultures and people – a memoir, a great album, or something along those lines.

An oil diffuser or CD that features nature sounds.
