Durga

By Baywytch

In times of strife I call her   
My demons she will slay 
To bring me peace and harmony
I honor her each day
~Poem to Durga
by  Baywytch


 The Hindu Goddess that kills your demons. She came to be when the Gods were threatened with extinction. Each one of the Gods offered a part of themselves for her, chakra power from Vishnu, and a
trident from Shiva. Her name alone stands for invincible. When demonic forces create instability the Gods unite their power and create Shatki or Durga.

September 7 is her day of honor. Her place in Indian Mythology is so important that the Indian national anthem sings her praises as a guardian.

Her symbols are rice bowl and spoon,fire, the color yellow and the Lion.
