Lord Vishnu is one of the principal deities of Hinduism and is revered as the Preserver and Protector within the holy trinity known as the Trimurti, which includes Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer). He is known for maintaining cosmic order (dharma) and for his benevolence, compassion, and righteousness.
Vishnu embodies Satva Guna – the quality of goodness, balance, and harmony.
He is worshipped primarily through devotional movements like Vaishnavism.
Scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita, Vishnu Purana, and Srimad Bhagavatam praise his glories and role in the universe.
