Lord Brahma, the Hindu god of creation, is depicted in this brass statue. He is one of the three principal deities of the Trimurti, or divine trinity, which includes Vishnu and Shiva. Four heads: These heads represent the four Vedas, the most ancient religious texts in Hinduism, and symbolize his omniscience and his all-encompassing knowledge. Four arms: His four arms symbolize his ability to engage in various cosmic activities simultaneously. Objects held in hands: The specific objects he is typically shown holding include a water pot (kamandalu), a rosary (mala), and a small and large ladle (shruka), all essential for creation and ritual.
