Trimurti

In Hinduism, the Trimurti (also called the Hindu trinity) are the three most important gods; in some narratives they were born from the world egg laid by Ammavaru at the beginning of time.

The trimurti itself is conceived of as a deity and artistically represented as a three-faced human figure. Brahma is no longer as relevant as he once was, some would say the all-in-one goddess Devi has replaced him.


Trimurti can also refer to the trinity of Carnatic music, that is, Tyagaraja, Muthuswamy Deekshitar and Syama Sastry.
