because all gods are actually differnt carnations of one major god. Im writing a paper for my politics of India class... Word for word from my paper
"Hindus believe in one omni-present, all powerful god who has many different carnations, all of which have their own name. In order to demonstrate this think of a man. If that man lives in a house with his son, his wife, and his elderly parent, the man is father, a husband, and son. Once that man leaves the house and goes to work, he may be an employee, a supervisor, and a subordinate. That man, is always the same encompassing man, yet when he needs to take a different role he does."
its kind of like a cross between monotheism and polytheism as best as i understand it.
