Hindu Gods and Goddesses

"The purpose of evolution on earth, and the goal of human life is the realization and manifestation of divinity. Hindu gods and goddesses are divine aspects and energies within human beings and the universe." Sathya Sai Baba, world teacher, discourses on the deep inner meaning of the symbolic gods and goddesses of Hinduism as an aid to understanding and attaining one's innate divine nature. During an interview with Sathya Sai Baba, he read the title of this book Hindu Gods and Goddesses: Truth and Myth and exclaimed, "Hindu Gods, Canadian Gods; there is only one God". In this book, as narrated by Sathya Sai Baba, descriptions of Radha, Krshna, Ganesha, Shiva, Nataraja, Rama, Sita, Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati, as well as what Sathya Sai Baba has to say about his own powers and divinity. The inner meanings of all the equipments the gods and goddesses carry, the aspects of the divine they represent, and their power and purpose, are beautifully described by Sathya Sai Baba. There are color illustrations for each god and goddess. These illuminating words of Sathya Sai Baba, organized and compiled by Catherine Kapahi, are powerful and enlightening for any seeker of truth, no matter to which cultural or religious background he/she may belong.
