Trinity, Oneness & Divine Nature
The internal nature of the divine is understood differently across traditions. Christianity affirms the Trinity, Islam insists on absolute tawhid, Judaism emphasizes divine unity, Hinduism speaks of Trimurti, and Buddhism focuses on the Three Jewels. These doctrines shape worship, prayer, and theological identity.
