Durga is one of the most important goddesses. Originally, she was worshipped as the embodiment of the elemental force that both gives life and takes life. Later she was given the role of Shakti, the impersonal Absolute, the female counterpart of the great male deity. In this capacity, she also became the consort of Shiva.
Durga is a very strong goddess. When she appears in a friendly form, she nourishes man and animal, but above all she is the martial patroness who always shows her destructive power when the earth is threatened by demons. Durga usually has eight arms and sometimes three eyes. She sits on a lotus throne or rides a lion or tiger. Her attributes are trident, sword, snake, bell, drum, shield, skull bowl, arrow, bow, wheel, water jug and conch shell. Also a commentator of the Nirukta is called Durga.
Mantras are powerful sound energies in Sanskrit, a language for prayers and chants.
The correct use of these sound energies helps to achieve health, inner harmony, mental clarity, powerful life energy, unfoldment of love and joy. The highest goal of Mantra Yoga, as always in yoga, is the realization of true nature, oneness with infinite life itself. Mantra Yoga is considered one of the most powerful, easiest, safest and fastest ways to this realization.
