Devakatharasa

The Hindus speak of the three great Gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. These form, what is often spoken of as the Hindu Triad. In this work I have tried to give stories behind the different epithets used for these three Gods and three Main Goddesses Lakshmi, Saraswati and Durga. The work starts with Ganesh, the most popular and the foremost – God of the Hindus. Epithets in Sanskrit, are not mere name, these always carry some story behind it. Different Puranas give different stories for the same epithet. While dealing with the epithets stories behind incarnations and their form is also taken into account.
