Mother Gauri - the queen of the eighth night

Maa Durga is Maha Gauri in her eighth manifestation worshipped during Navaratri. She is considered to be saumya or calm in this manifestation. Mother Gauri is Parvati in her aspect as the one who prayed for Lord Shiva as a husband. Her austerities turned her skin dark, which was then bathed by Lord Shiva Himself. Maha Gauri is the same color as Lord Shiva - white as camphor. 

May Mother Gauri whose form is pleasing to Lord Shiva, our father, bless us with the service of her lotus feet!

Maa Kushmanda, the Lady of the Fourth Day

Kushmanda, ‘Ku-shm-anda’, or ‘Ku’ = a little; ‘ushma’ = ‘warmth'; ‘anda’ = ‘the cosmic egg’, is the creator of the universe. She is the Cosmic Egg that eventually becomes the Universe. She is depicted with eight or ten hands. Her mount is the lion.

May Mother Kushmanda, the revealer of the mysteries of the universe, grant us the knowledge supreme that results in the great liberation from sorrow and limitations! 

Jai Mata Kushmanda ki!

Navratri Festival Special 2013 - Did you know? - Part 7

Mata Kalratri - The ruler of the dead -Hel or Hela

Mata Kalratri – The ruler of the dead – Hel or Hela

Maa Kala Ratri is the seventh among the Navadurga. Kalaratri is the one of the fiercest forms of Durga who destroys all demons. Kaal Ratri is terrifying because she is death itself. Kaal means time. Ratri is night. The dark unknown period before we are born and the dark unknown that we return to is Kaalratri.  


Mata Kalratri was present in old European Norse mythology as Hel or Hela, the goddess of the dead and queen of underworld. She can cause disease, decay and death. She, like Kaalratri does not merely represent death but is death itself.

Navratri Festival Special 2013 - Did you know? - Part 5

Mother Yemaya - Skanda Mata

Skanda Mata and Mother Yemaya in the Nigerian tradition

Skandamata is Goddess Parvati in her role as mother of Lord Skanda or Kartikeya.  As Mata Rani is in her maternal aspect in this manifestation, she is believed to be extremely beneficent to devotees who seek her as Skandamata. Probably the best known depiction of the Divine Feminine as Mother comes to us in the form of the depictions of Mother Mary with Jesus among others.

The role of Supreme Mother in the Yoruba tradition of Nigeria is fulfilled by Yemaya. Yemaya is the ocean, the essence of motherhood, and a fierce protector of children. Yemaya is said to be the mother of all Gods in the Nigerian IFA tradition.

Skandmata
