A speech on Symbolism of Gods in Hindu Culture by Dr N Gopalakrishnan in English
What is meant by Hindu Gods? What is the concept of God in Hindu culture? Indians definitely believed and followed monotheism. veda says, A divine power having hands through out the universe, eyes through out the universe, legs through out the universe, it means, it can control the universe, he created the universe. Hindu call it “prapanchapurusha”, The God itself.

When hindu says 33 crore gods, it doesn’t mean numerical 33Gods. it means 1/3 rd, as we use to say percentage. so 33%+ 33%+33%= almost makes 100%.

1/3 rd of whatever existing in universe-higher level of divine manifestation ( devika percentage)
1/3 rd whatever existing in universe Manushika- humanly manifestation.
1/3 rd whatever existing in universe Aasurika- manifestation

Whichever is prominent in each individual, we can say he is more Devika, more Manushika, more aasurika. In hindu dharma about Gods can be analyzed by ultra modern science. Hindu god concept starts from Brahman, saguna brahma, nirguna brahma. where the universe is symbolically represented in Human form in “viswaroopa of Vishnu”. When we say viswaroopam, with infinite hands, legs, eyes, throughout the universe, No one can think it as a human being; It’s the sympolical representation of God. The color of Vishnu always Blue, Why? It represents infinity. You can see the things with infinite dimension are always blue, the color of Sky, The color of Ocean, And Vishnu lying on Ananda-infinity (snake). Ananda has five hoods, panchabhuta- basic five elements and the sixth one (mahavishnu) is the Consciousness or Awareness. So it is clear from this, “Mahavishnu lying above this Snake “represents the infinite concept of God with Self awareness inside.
Now the modern science has reached at the theory of Hindu Rishi’s that origin of Universe may be from Consciousness. The concept of Brahma, saraswati, and other gods also explained in the speech..

Lord The great heritage of Indian Culture: a speech in English by Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan

The great heritage of Indian Culture a speech in English by Dr. N. Gopalakrishnan
A land which could survive all the torrential invasions from outside for not less than 1,000 years. A land which could protect all it’s heritage when other civilization failed. A land, our mother land which could protect who came to our land as refuge; it gave all the freedom, wisdom to all world. That’s the great heritage of India. India always welcomed all noble thoughts and accepts all. Indians always prayed let all the living beings around the world be live happily. When the western philosophy says Survival of the fittest, Bharat says survival of the noblest. This is why still Indian culture survives. Since we are sons of India, our mother, it’s our duty-dharma to protect our motherland (mother).
