God can be visualized in three different ways: 1. Saakara (with form as its easy to show love/affection). Gods are identified by gender. 2. Nirakara (formless, but saguna. A god which punishes bad people and rewards good people). Gods also have a gender in this case. 3. Then the gods talked in Upanishads. (They are Nirakara and Nirguna). God is referred to as IT here. There is no gender associated. They also do not reward/punish people. It is above all. https://youtu.be/srAnLGWzZw8?t=2748 https://youtu.be/srAnLGWzZw8?t=2748

The Hindu American Foundation (HAF) has spent nearly a decade interacting with school boards, textbook publishers, and directly with teachers and students to ensure that Hinduism, and the Indian civilization it helped shape, is accurate. What is more, HAF insists that the curriculum be culturally competent and equitable in comparison to the presentation of other religious traditions. This insistence is not about sensitivities, but about complying with California law, which prohibits adopting educational material which reflect adversely on a student’s religion. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/activist-academics-unleas_b_10030678.html?section=india http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/activist-academics-unleas_b_10030678.html?section=india
