Chandraghanta Devi : The Power of Light

 

"Worshipped on the third night, this Durga Shakti rides a tiger.

Her skin is of a golden hue, and She possesses 10 hands and three

eyes.Eight of Her hands display weapons while the remaining two are

in themudras ( gestures) of boon giving and stopping harm,

respectively. The terms "Chandra" and "Ghanta" indicate supreme

bliss and knowledge, showering peace and serenity, like a cook

breeze on a moonlit night. Durga Devi is frequently worshipped in

this form in Kanchipuram ( Karanataka ) India!"

 

 

She rides a Tiger : Overcoming/taming of the ego.

 

Three eyes : The third eyes also known as the eyes of transcendent

knowledge

 

Lotus : symbolizes purity, perfection and divine. The spirit of a man

who is pure is spotless like the lotus, grows in the muddy water, but

rises above it .

 

Chandraghanta literally means the bell of the moon. The moon is

always associated with beauty, enchantment and ecstasy. There is only

one moon but the reflection of the moon is being transmitted to all

the different oceans. The Moon too brings light during the night.

 

Chandraghanta is the power of light, that shine bright in our time

of darkness. In the process of our journey, we often face difficult

times. It is during these difficult times that we need the power of

Chandraghanta to help us pull through.

 

Chandraghanta shines : internally and externally like the beauty of

the moon, and this beauty creates a ripple bringing joy to whomever

that sees and feel HER. Her spirit is as pure and as spotless as the

lotus flower.
