Many religions use statues to help them pray to a particular god or saint. The faithful know that the statue is only a representation of the real god, but feel that the statue helps them pray.

∙ 12y agoHindus believe in One God. However, they also worship all manifestations of that God. They believe that God could be anywhere; in the trees, in the rains, in the stones, within yourself, etc. Hence, every aspect of this nature is worshiped.
Keeping that in mind, it is easier for a devotee to focus on God, if he has a picture or figure of God in front of him than to believe in an abstract form. The shape of the statue is the artists imagination.
