Detailed explanation-1: -Most forms of Hinduism are henotheistic, which means they worship a single deity, known as “Brahman, ‘’ but still recognize other gods and goddesses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many Hindus believe that Brahman is the main deity, or single god, and all other gods and goddesses are manifestations of Brahman. Therefore, there is a belief in multiple deities, but the deities all stem from one supreme being.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hindus are encouraged to relate to God in the way that suits them best, like worshipping many deities who are believed to be manifestations of God. The trimurti or three main deities are Brahma, the creator; Vishnu, the preserver; and Shiva, the destroyer. That’s why Hinduism is often thought of as polytheistic.
