Research Sought for
An Article on the Hindu Trimurti of
Brahma/Vishnu/Siva
FROM
HINDUISM TODAY: KAUAI, HAWAII, February 18, 2004:
Hinduism Today magazine is researching the concept of the Trimurti
comprising of Brahma/Vishnu/Siva, also sometimes referred to as the "Hindu
Trinity."
We're looking for expert opinion and information on how Hindus past and
present have viewed the Trimurti, as well as where the concept and its
depictions have occurred historically, such as scriptural references, art (for
example, in the Elephanta Cave carvings), sects or denominations that have
made the icon popular, temples, and geographical areas where the Trimurti was
or is prominent.
References to the Trimurti in textbooks or works on Hinduism would also be
helpful.
