the triumverate

A friend asked whether GOD meant Generater, Observer and Destroyer.

My take on it

That is only a popular concept. It is not given like that in any shastra. or any texts

In Hinduism we have three principal male Gods Brahma the creator Vishnu the ruler and sustainer and Shiva the destroyer.

Of course these three combine as the powerful divine force|

And for the creator great knowledge is necessary..So Brahma's devi is Saraswathi.

For administration or Observation wealth is essential..So vishnu's wife is Lakshmi

and

for destruction immense power is in great use..So Shivas consort is uma the Shakthi.

And Brahmas sons are the great scholars.. Sanatkumaras

Vishnus son is the God of love.. Kamadeva..

And

Shivas Son is the God of War, the Commander in Chief of the Army of Gods.. Subramania Karthikeya.
