Description
Shiva without power in non-Shiva. The Hindu philosophy believes the power to be a feminine energy because inspite of a female being a symbol of love, mercy and compassion she becomes dangerously ferocious to defend her young ones.
In Vedic mantras, the mother is the prime god. Mother not only crates a child from her body and energizes but becomes the biggest and the most effective teacher of her child to mould his future. When gods take incarnations they respect their respective mothers as the most sacred living objects.
The wisdom is sought by worshipping Gayatri. Ma Saraswati is the goddess of all knowledges. She has helped gods in hours of need by lending them wisdom. Ma Durga destroys those demonic forces that make a mistake of taking the women to be weaklings. She wreaks havoc by becoming a raging fury. The citadel of women power, she is.
O mother goddess! All the religious scriptures and books of wisdom are your manifestations. One who worships you becomes the master of all sciences. Glory be to you.
O mother! You have adopted several forms to defend your children. Every incarnation of yours has been to protect the faithfuls. You take up divine arms to destroy the demonic forces. Your sons and daughters are safe under your protection.
O Ma! The way you guided gods in times of trouble by lending them wisdom, bless me with the same benevolence. Lead me into light from the darkness of the ignorance. Make me powerful because the knowledge is the real power.
