Hindu Deities

Here, you will find information on the Deities in the Hindu Temple of Minnesota. Each page will provide an overview of information on each deity, including: background, stories, symbolism, prayers, etc.

In the temple, the right side of each deity has an engraved QR code. Each code will link to its respective page below with more information.

Click audio to listen to a 10 minute audio recording of prayers for all deities at mandir.

Recorded by HSMN priests.

Coming soon:
Write ups with meanings for each prayer
Prayers added to each d
eity page

This material has been compiled with the sole purpose of providing general information about each deity. These pages will not give a deep delve into our shaastras and teachings, but rather provide inspiration to those who are interested in learning further. These materials were developed by a dedicated and learned team of HSMN volunteers. We thank everyone for their work on this ongoing pursuit of Dharmic education.
