Durga Puja is the time when Devi is worshipped in nine holy aspects in nine days. These nine aspects have individual dhyanamantra, mantra for meditation. a free version is added with a little copy edit and modified formatting. VMO 14:55, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Murti Images
Is there some reason why only eight images are showing, and what is (in my opinion) the most important one: Brahmacharini, is missing? It would be fantastic to have the complete set for this article. AaronCarson (talk) 02:34, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I asked the uploader of the 8 images the same question. He said that the Durga Puja pandal did not have the Brahmacharini image in it. I will crop Brahmacharini from File:Silver door in Amber Fort, Rajasthan.jpg and upload. --RedtigerxyzTalk 05:08, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Upsetting news. I guess it's better than nothing, although it will look glaringly out of place with the others. AaronCarson (talk) 18:40, 31 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Article not written properly
This article is entirely written on basis of Shaivism, claiming that the goddess is Parvati. But the truth is that these all 9 devis are the forms of Mahadevi Parashakti Durga. Durga is the most supreme form as clearly mentioned in the holy texts named Bhagwat Gita, Shiv Mahapuran, Devi Bhagwat, etc.
This article must be re-written. All devis including paravti, lakshmi, saraswati, etc are the forms of Durga as clearly stipulated in all holy texts. Also Durga is the creator of Tridev/Trimurti - Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh. Keshavv1234 (talk) 01:39, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Parvati is only worshipped as Shailputri which is the first of the nine forms of Durga. However the supreme goddess here is Durga. Parvati is a form of Durga only.[1]
Moreover, Durga has created Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh and this is mentioned in almost all major holy texts of hinduism. Durga or Mahadevi Shakti is the principal form of creation and is the creator of Tridev.[2] Durga is also connected to Sada Shiva energy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keshavv1234 (talk • contribs) 06:38, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Quora is not reliable; see WP:SPS. As for the TOI, I'm not sure. I'll wait for the opinion of other editors. Firestar464 (talk) 09:36, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
According to Puranas, Paravti is Durga but because Tridevi is considered as single entity thats why Laxmi is termed as Durga in her Sahasranamam and Parvati is often termed as Narayani. AarushSinha10 (talk) 13:13, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
