Oh...well, I've already read the article. Just wanted your insights.

Buddhist? Well, I don't really have anything to ask about them.

Brahman = Creator
Vishnu = Maintainer
Shiva = Destroyer

These are the three main gods in this form of pantheism.

All the other gods represent different forms of the "ultimate god"



Edit: The idea is an overall "oneness" within all existence and reality
