i think the point is,
you have some miss in the basic of Hinduism
the function of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva is aspect for us to meditate the quality of God,
When Shaivite student worship Shiva, that is not mean they not worship Vishnu - Brahma - Ganesha - Shakti and another,
worship Shiva is mean already worship Brahma and Vishnu (also Shakti and others)
worship Vishnu is mean already worship Brahma and Shiva and others
they are one.
When we sick, we will pray :
"Oh God , Thou art the destroyer of sicknes."
in Hindu language, this is become :
"Lord Shiva , please cure my diseases, make me halth"
When we need God help in begining of works :
"Oh God, Thou art the destroyer of obstacles."
in Hindu language this is :
"Lord Ganesh, please destroy all obstacles."
When we pray for prosperity :
"Oh God, Thou art is the Lord of all prosperity and auspicious."
In Hindu language , that is become :
"I bow and refuge to the Mother Lakshmi."
So , when we feel gratefull when see beautiful view :
"Oh God, Thou art the creator, wonderfull."
In Hindu language that is :
"i bow and refuge to Lord Brahma."
But the amazing part is, if you already choose one name to concentration in your everyday spiritual life, for example Ganesha's name and form :
when you sick, when you feel gratefull with all wonderful creation, when you need pray for prosperity etc, you only need to say :
"Om Gam Ganapataye Namah !"
acctually every name and form is ONE, and ONE is all.
so, in Hinduism there is we doing spiritual practice with art of devotion, art is beautiful but maybe become confusing and little bit difficult to understand for others who dont have the sense of art
