Vaishnavism  

Définition

  • As commonly understood, Vaishnavism is a prototypical form of Hinduism focusing on Vishnu (or His many manifestations and incarnations) as the Supreme Being. It is a form of monotheism that perceives other deities as subordinate, viewing them as demigods, angels, or empowered beings. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Religion; Vaishnavism]
