1) Philosophy wise in Hinduism there
is only one Supreme Being (Bhraman).
All creation and everything else emanates from this being.
This attributes of
this being are beyond human measure. The supreme being does not have
a beigining or an end (primordial being).

2) Since the true nature of this being is beyond human comprehension,
and since by definition this being is Omniscient and Omnipresent
it is not inconsistent to worhip this being in a particular form.

3) The different God's that are worshipped can be considered as
different aspects of the this being. However, they are not
different from the Supreme being (non dual being)

4) The Lord Krishna in the Gita says "Nomatter what form or name
you worship me you will still come to me.
