The Thirty-three gods, or Tridasha (Sanskrit: त्रिदश, romanized: Tridaśa, lit. 'three tens'), is a pantheon of Hindu deities of the current manvantara.[1][2] The Samhitas, which are the oldest layer of text in the Vedas, enumerate 33 deities classified as Devas, either 11 each for the three worlds, or as 12 Adityas, 11 Rudras, eight Vasus and two Ashvins in the Brahmanas.[3][4]
