Produktbeschreibung

"Durga, as this powerful warrior-goddess in known, has nine special forms--each one unique, not just a clone. Shailaputri, Brahmacharini and Chandraghanta, Kushmanda and Skandamata, Katyayani and Kaalratri, Maha Gauri and Siddhidatri... they are the nav Durga, worshipped during Navaratri. The festival of nine nights and nine days, that's celebrated across India and the world in myriad ways to praise the goddesses and their glory."--
