If you permit your thoughts to dwell on evil you yourself will become ugly. Look only for the good in everything and absorb the quality of beauty. . A #GoodRead - Believed as the root cause of creation, sustenance and annihilation, Maa Durga is the principal form of the Mother Goddess in Hinduism. The name 'Durga' in Sanskrit means 'invincible'. The syllable 'du' is synonymous with the 4 devils namely poverty, sufferings, famine and evil habits. The 'r' refers to diseases and the 'ga' is the destroyer of sins, injustice, irreligion, cruelty and laziness. Goddess Durga is a unified symbol of all divine forces and is said to have manifested when evil forces threatened the very existence of the Gods. Like Shiva, Durga is also referred to as "Triyambake" meaning the three eyed Goddess. The left eye represents desire (the moon), the right eye represents action (the sun), and the central eye knowledge (fire). The lion represents power, will and determination. Durga riding the lion symbolises the Goddess' mastery over all these qualities. Devi Durga is portrayed standing on a lion in a fearless pose signifying assurance of freedom from fear. The universal Mother seems to be saying to all her devotees : "Surrender all actions and duties onto me and I shall release thee from all fears".
