Look up the Statue of Unity - the highest statue in the world, located in India. It's just old dude looking like average old dude, but extremely humongous.
The language used seems very Abrahamic for a Hindu nationalist. Like consistently referring to a singular God usually referred to only as God. Is this some translation weirdness, or is it just normal language that's surprising me because I'm not familiar with the context? I know that a lot of denominations of Hinduism hold one of the gods as being the primary one, but even that seems like it would be a fast way to alienate other denominations
There are differing schools of thought regarding the vast amount of deities in Hinduism. One school, which is what most outsiders are aware of, is that each god is individual from one another and they have varying domains, powers and relationships, much like the ancient Roman and Greek gods. Another school suggests that all of the different gods are expressions of a singular God, much as how Christianity has the Holy Trinity who are three separate beings (Lord, Jesus, Holy Spirit) that are also simultaneously one being.
You’ll find that oftentimes outside of the context of a puja or a religious holiday Hindu people will often just refer to ‘God’ rather than a specific deity e.g. “Thank God” rather than “Thank Durga” or “God is watching over you” and not “Ganesh is watching over you”. I’m not sure if this reflects their school of thought on mono/polytheism or is just language simplification, but from what I’ve gathered from Indian communities here in Australia the ‘many gods; one God’ idea seems to be pretty prevalent.
It looks like the word he used was "ishwar". I'm no scholar of India, but it looks like that's kind of a general term. While Hinduism has multiple gods, they're generally considered aspects of divine existence itself, which doesn't have its own personification.
Interesting. I only know that there are a LOT of different gods in indian culture. Maybe i said it wrong i this sentence but you get my meaning. (and im tired so my english is kinda shit today)
