-Ishvara is a Sanskrit word meaning “Lord of the universe” or “Lord.” In Hinduism, '''Ishvara''' is seen as the “immediate personal aspect of the supreme impersonal Godhead.”<ref>R. S. Nathan, comp., ''Symbolism in Hinduism'' (Bombay: Central Chinmaya Mission Trust, 1983), p. 13.</ref> We cannot know God unless we know him personified, and God personifies himself in extensions of himself to whom he gives spiritual and physical form. In reality, there is only one God, but the one God appears to us in his many manifestations. Thus, the many gods in Hinduism are simply rays of light from the one central Source.
+Ishvara es una palabra sánscrita que significa «Señor del universo» o «Señor». En el hinduismo, Ishvara está considerado como el «inmediato aspecto personal de la Divinidad suprema e impersonal»<ref></ref>. No podemos conocer a Dios a menos que lo conozcamos personificado, y Dios se personifica en extensiones de sí mismo a quienes da forma espiritual y física. En realidad, sólo hay un Dios, pero el único Dios se nos aparece en sus muchas manifestaciones. Así, los múltiples dioses del hinduismo son simples rayos de luz procedentes de la única Fuente central.
 ''The Encyclopedia of Eastern Philosophy and Religion'' explains that “the God of Christianity and of Islam, as well as all the deities of Hindu mythology, are aspects of Ishvara. Our human reason can conceive of divinity only within some form; thus, we need the concept of Ishvara.... The most widely disseminated form of Ishvara in Hindu thought is the trimurti, the Trinity of [[Brahma]], [[Vishnu]], and [[Shiva]].”<ref>''Encyclopedia of Eastern Philosophy and Religion'' (Boston: Shambhala, 1994), s.v. “Ishvara.”</ref>
