Trivia Question: Trishula is a powerful trident wielded by what “Destroyer” of the Hindu faith?
Answer: Shiva
Shiva’s role as a destroyer has often confused Western students. Though the god ends most things, they are still honored in Hinduism. That is simply a matter of perspective since Shiva is often viewed as a great equalizer, destroying the wicked to preserve order and bringing the just to a peaceful end so that a next generation can have a chance at life.
