Crafted from the purest Super White Makrana marble, renowned for its luminous quality, this piece captures the essence of the powerful deity, embodying strength, compassion, and victory over evil. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring the Goddess to life, making it a captivating centerpiece for any home or temple.

Her radiant smile and serene expression convey both fierce determination and boundless love, offering a potent symbol of protection and hope.

Durga: The Invincible Goddess

In Hindu mythology, Durga is revered as the supreme mother goddess, a force of nature who embodies the ultimate triumph of good over evil. Her name itself means "the invincible," "the inaccessible," or "the one who is difficult to approach," reflecting her untamed power and untouchable divinity. The tales of her exploits are legendary, narrating her epic battles against demons and the restoration of dharma, or cosmic order. Her victory over Mahishasura, a shape-shifting demon who terrorised the gods, stands as a powerful symbol of hope and courage. The demon could only be defeated by a female warrior, highlighting the feminine strength Durga represents. The story of Mahishasura Mardini (Durga, slayer of Mahishasura) serves as a potent reminder that even the most daunting of evils can be overcome through determination and unwavering faith.

Symbolism and Iconography

This statue beautifully encapsulates the various symbolic elements associated with Goddess Durga. Her ten arms represent her multifaceted nature and abilities, wielding weapons like the sword (representing knowledge and intellect), trident (representing power and protection), conch (representing purity and prosperity), and discus (representing universal justice). Her lion mount, a majestic creature symbolizing courage, strength, and royal power, further underscores her divine authority and strength. The detailed ornamentation, including the vibrant colours of her garments and the exquisite craftsmanship of her jewelry, perfectly illustrates her regal status and divine grace. Each element of this statue has been painstakingly crafted to ensure that it embodies the goddess’ essence and power.
