Question 4: collection of hymns, and verses written in sanskrit.

Question 5: The god that preserves and protects the universe

Question 6: God responsible for the creation of living things and the world
That’s
Brahma — he’s the creator god in the Hindu Trinity.
✔ Correct Answer:
A. Brahma
---
Question 7: The god that destroys the universe in order to recreate it.
This is
Shiva. He doesn’t destroy out of anger — he destroys so something new can be born. Think of it like cleaning your room before redecorating!
✔ Correct Answer:
A. Shiva *(Note: Option A is listed as “Shiva” — though in the image it might look cut off, based on standard knowledge and context, this is correct.)*
Wait — looking back at Question 7 options:
> 7. The god that destroys the universe in order to recreate it.
> A. Shiva
> B. Brahmin
> C. Vishnu
> D. Devi
“Brahmin” is a caste, not a god. “Devi” is a goddess form. So yes —
Shiva is correct.
✔ Final Answer for Q7:
A. Shiva
