The sanskrit "Trimurti" means "three forms". In Hindu culture, the depiction of Trimurti shows three heads on one neck representing the "Hindu Trinity"—Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver) and Shiva (the destroyer).

In Thailand, Phra Trimurti is also regarded as God of Love, partly because the renowned Trimurti Shrine in Bangkok has become the Holy Land for people questing for love.

There is also a story about how Phra Trimurti obtains the title as God of Love:

Once, the Hindu Trinity—Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva—heard and was curious about a beatiful and virginal fairy with high magic power and reputation. Three Gods transformed themselves into three handsome men, going to visit the fairy for testing her ability.

They were well treated by the beautiful fairy, but showed no willingness to leave after finishing the meal. The fairy asked why they still stayed; the three Lords, intending to play with the fairy, frivolously said, "What we want is your body."

The fairy, instead of getting furious at their words for sexual implication, agreed their request without any hesitation.

She said, "It's no problem that I give you my body, on condition that you should be transformed into new-born babies.

In fact, the fairy had figured out their real identity and true intentions. She immediately transformed this three handsome men into babies, and began breastfeeding.
