Hindu gods and goddesses are special divine beings who each have their own important jobs to help take care of our world and everyone in it!
Some look after nature, others protect knowledge and learning, while others bring good luck, health, or happiness to families—they all work together to keep the universe in balance.
These divine friends appear in many wonderful forms with special symbols and animal companions, showing us that the same divine power can be found everywhere in many different forms!
