108 Names of Durga

The name ‘Durga’ means ‘Inaccessible’ and this may reflect something of the mystery at the heart of this deity.

Names Of Durga

Though loving and kind to those who worship her, she symbolizes the violent and destructive qualities of the Mother Goddess (Shakti). These qualities are explained by a story from the Hindu tradition according to which she was born fully grown from flames.

Her purpose is destroying the buffalo demon, symbol of death. Durga, also called Divine Mother, protects mankind from evil and misery by destroying evil forces such as selfishness, jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, and ego.

When demonic forces create an imbalance in the world, all Gods unite to form Durga or Shakti, to obliterate whatever evil is present.
