The phrase for the worship of multiple deities is "polytheism.

" Hindus do not practice polytheism since the

majority of them consider all deities to be the ultimate manifestation of the Brahmin, who is the source of all
power. The worship of multiple unknown deities at the same time and their equal rank is another facet of
polytheism. Therefore, according to many theories, Hindus frequently worship one particular ultimate being, the
Brahmin. So it's not appropriate to call Hindus polytheists.
