This trifoliate shape of the Bel Patra is symbolic, representing the triad, the three main gods of Hinduism (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva), and the three gunas of nature, Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. It also means the three eyes of Shiva: the sun, the moon, and the fire. If you have been wondering, why this leaf? Well, it is not just any leaf, but it is a sacred expression of surrender and reverence.
