Symbolism and Explanation of Hindu Deities

hariH Om. Our Vedic tradition is as rich and varied as it is ancient. Every depicted form of Ishvara holds special significance, and can always be traced back to a scriptural source- be it the vedAs, itihAsAs, smRtis or purANas. I randomly collected a set of pictures of our deities that I found beautiful, and as an afterthought decided to explain the significance of each one through captions. I hope it helps you. If you have any doubts, kindly leave a comment.
