Trishul's three prongs represent the Hindu trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh. It is also associated with other important spiritual religious symbols, such as the three Kaalas, or the past, present, and future. This brass Trishul is a revered emblem in Hinduism, having a significant spiritual role. A sacred Tamil Om is written on the middle prong of one side, and a Tri Pundra is carved on the other side of the same prong. It portrays Lord Shiva's almighty trident, a sign of his cosmic power, with three prongs merging into a single point. Trishul is also associated with the three Lokas of swarg, bhu, and patal. Lord Shiva, the destroyer of false ego and Maaya (attachment), is depicted bearing the Trishul, defeating demons of illusion and greed, and inspiring people to follow the spiritual path.
