Though there is no founder in Hinduism, there are a lot of Gods and Goddesses. The one I chose to do is Brahma:
Brahma is the first god of the Hindu Trinity. Many Hindus add Lord in-front of the name to emphasize, Lord Brahma is recognized as the creator of the Universe according to the Hindus. Brahma is the Supreme Being, the head of gods (Like in Greek, they have Zeus, in Hinduism, they have Brahma). Brahma is the generator of mankind. It symbolizes the work of mind and in the intellect. Something strange about Brahma is that there is a possible reason that worship of Brahma is not popular among Hindus. But it is known that he is worshiped by seekers of knowledge.
As I looked up on the site, it mentioned that
“As an individual is god gifted with the mind and intellect, then it may be assumed that a person has already attained Brahma.”
I chose to select Brahma, since I thought it was the pioneer of Hindu Deities.
