Hindu Gods and their vehicles
Did you know Hindu Gods don't ride ordinary vehicles? They choose companions that teach us how to live better lives
Ganesha - The mouse (Mooshak)
- Even though He is big and strong, Ganesha rides a tiny mouse
- Meaning: Like the mouse, our mind can be restless - but with wisdom, it can be guided in the right direction
Hanuman - The wind (Vayu)
- Hanuman doesn't ride on animal. He moved with the wind - swift and powerful
- Meaning: The mind may wander, but with faith, it can move with strength and purpose
Shiva - The Bull (Nandi)
- Lord Shiva rides Nandi, the strong and devoted bull who wait patiently at His feet
- Meaning: True strength is quiet - rooted in patience, discipline and inner stillness
Krishna - The peacock (Sometimes Garuda)
- Krishna is often shown with the peacock feather. He is also connected with Garuda, the mighty celestial being
- Meaning: Like Krishna, bring beauty and kindness into everything you do
