HAPPY NAVRATRAS!
May Goddess Durga Bless all.
Beautiful art representation of Durga Ma from the net.

The ancient Sadhus from the Himalayas declared "The rider of the tiger is the Beloved of Shiva"

DEVI
Somewhere in the mountains,
a golden tiger brought
his rider
to the Lord.
And the Lord saluted Devi, saying
you,
are mine own god……

------------------------------------------------

Ah Durge~
we
do not know all
thy visions and thy graces
less still thy names.
Life’s each new turn
unfolds yet,
You
Once again!
and we,
bewildered thus
a child ….so remain.
Somewhere from the mountains,
a golden tiger came.

{ Poetry from NAAM ROOP- A Tribute to the Divine, 2006.

The concept of the divine feminine,God as mother,has resonant natural appeal.Durga, who is the devi, is variously Kali,Tripursundari,Matangi, dhumavati and many other vidyas…she,is also parvati,the mountain goddess, shiva’s beloved wife.Her worshippers,the saktas, say that she is the Paramount Godhead,and even lord shiva’s eternal love for her is a declaration of supreme devotion. }
