While many cultures practice monotheism, some practice polytheism.
We speak of monotheism when a religion only has one single god. Hinduism recognizes several gods. Even if one of those gods is considered the principal god, we still call it polytheism, not monotheism.
A monotheistic religion is a religion that worships a single deity. While polytheism divides the supernatural forces of the universe between many gods, in monotheism a single god is responsible for everything.
Polytheism is the belief in multiple deities or gods. Followers of polytheistic religions often worship and offer devotion to various gods and goddesses, each representing different aspects of life, nature, or specific domains. This contrasts with Monotheism, which believes in the existence of a single all-powerful deity.
