Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Polytheism is the belief or doctrine that there are multiple gods or deities. Like monotheism, the word polytheism can be used in the context of specific religions (such as Hinduism) or outside of formal religion. A person who believes in multiple gods can be called a polytheist.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monolatry (Ancient Greek: , romanized: monos, lit. ‘single’, and , latreia, ‘worship’) is the belief in the existence of many gods, but with the consistent worship of only one deity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Buddhism is a religion lacking the idea of a unique creator God. It is a kind of trans-polytheism that accepts many long-lived gods, but sees ultimate reality, Nirvana, as beyond these.
