The name Trimurti is derived from the word 'tri' meaning three and 'murti' meaning form. According to Hinduism, the name refers to the concept of three Gods, namely Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva who are personifications of three cosmic functions including creation, maintenance and destruction respectively. The concept reflects the truth of impermanece (rising, existing and ceasing).
Varied legends are told about the origin of Trimurti. Mostly, it is believed that Trimurti is a combination form of three prominent deities called Dattatreya. The name is divided into 2 words; 'datta' meaning given and 'atreya' referred to the sage Atri, his physical father. Datthtrya thus is the reincarnation of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva whose father is the sage Atri. There is also a legend referring Thrimurti as the reincarnation of Narayana.
