Durga Puja Plaque

Durga Puja is a festival celebration of the Mother Goddess and the victory of the warrior Goddess Durga over the demon Mahisasura. The festival represents female power as ‘Shakti’ in the Universe. It is a victory of Good over Evil. Durga Puja is one of the greatest festivals of India. It is also time for a reunion of family and friends, and a ceremony of cultural values and customs . Especially in Bengal, the festival is celebrated by decorating a ‘pandal’. Others even worship the goddess at home by making all the arrangements. On the last day, they also go for immersing the statue of the goddess into the holy river the Ganges. The eleven night festival also includes the time of Kali Puja and Dewali Festival of Lights (Laxshmi Puja).

Here in her most famous pose, Ma Durga and her Lion are shown killing the demon as he shape shifts from a Buffalo. Lord Shiva looks on from above. Perfect for home altar or festival decoration. Includes hanger on the back.
