Shoutout to MrMojoRisin on the AVID Discord for the original post and idea. Congrats on getting the star If you want to document a logo from India or Nepal but the logo contains a Hindu god/goddess you don't recognize, you've come to the right place... at least I hope because I'm only giving a general idea. Shiva (God of Destruction)
Vishnu (God of Preservation)
Ganesha (God of New Beginnings, Wisdom and Luck)
Hanuman (God of Wisdom, Strength, Courage, Devotion and Self-Discipline)
Brahma (God of Creation)
Krishna (God of Protection, Compassion, Tenderness and Love)
Lakshmi (Goddess of Prosperity, Fortune, Wealth, Power, Love, Abundance and Beauty)
Durga (Goddess of Strength and Protection)
Saraswati (Goddess of Knowledge, Music, Art and Speech)
Surya (God of the Sun)
Narasimha (God of Protection, Destruction, Yoga, and Kala)
Dattatreya
