Durga or Maa Durga one who can redeem in situations of utmost distress is a form of Devi, the supremely radiant goddess, depicted as having ten arms, riding a lion or a tiger, carrying weapons and a lotus flower, maintaining a meditative smile, and practicing mudras, or symbolic hand gestures.The name is made of Sanskrit.

An embodiment of creative feminine force, Durga exists in a state of svatantrya and fierce compassion.Kali is considered by Hindus to be an aspect of Durga.She is thus considered the fiercer, demon fighting form of Shiva's wife, goddess Parvati.Durga manifests fearlessness and patience, and never loses her sense of humor, even during spiritual battles of epic proportion.At the Durga Puja festival, Durga is shown as the mother of Ganesha, Kartikeya, Lakshmi and Saraswati.
