What do the different gods represent?

Brahma- The Creator Lord Brahma personifies the creative aspect of the Supreme Being. His four heads signify omniscience and in his hand he holds the Vedas. Brahma is not worshipped extensively today, because his work (creation) is done for the current cycle. After the final dissolution of the universe (praLaaya), Brahma is reborn to create the universe again. Vishnu – The Preserver (also known as Narayana, Hari, and by the names of his various incarnations) Lord Vishnu personifies the aspect of the Deity who preserves righteousness and takes care of the well being of the world. He is portrayed as beneficent, never angry and compassionate. In his role as the preserver, he is believed to have manifested on earth in human or animal form (avataras) nine times to protect the good and punish the wicked, with one incarnation left for the end of the current age. The Ten Incarnations (as given in the Bhagavata Purana): Matsya Vishnu descended in the form of a giant fish to save the Saptarishis
