Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 I am in serach for information about Devi in Her aspect as Uma-Parvati. Where would I find the most detailed description of Her and Her stories? Does someone know the Parvati Gita? I think it is part of the Mahabharata. Has someone read it? What is the content of the Parvati Gita? Is it in print somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 Namaste Alexandra, Hope these links are of interest: http://www.exoticindiaart.com/article/parvati http://www.siamese-dream.com/reference/devi.html Devi, also known as Maha Devi or Uma Devi, is the Divine Mother of the Hindu world. Devi is the "Mother Goddess," meaning she is the mother of all. Her name means goddess, and she has many forms or incarnations. Her most familiar forms are ferocious, such as Durga and Kali, or benevolent, such as Parvati. In the form of Parvati, she is the consort (wife) of Shiva, the god of destruction and regeneration. As the mother of all life, Devi is gentle, and is the god of nature and life because she brings rain and protects against disease. As mother of death, she is terrible. Lakshmi, wife of Vishnu is an incarnation of Devi. She is the goddess of creative power and represents all women in the universe.
