You are correct to an extent, some Hindu Deitys have specific weapons, for example Kalika carrys a Ram Dao Tegha, which is a forward curving double handed weapon, Ganesh is the carrier of a Axe and Shiva carrys the Trident. However in the fighting arts each Dieties form can used for more or less every weapon, but they will all adopt a specific characteristic which reflects their style.
