“Durga Riding the Lion on the Floating Staircase
Painted with Love and Wonder in Freedom, California.
There are several mantras for Goddess Durga, but the most simple and easy mantra to remember is Om Sri Durgaya Namah. It is believed that by chanting this mantra regularly the Divine Mother will remove the physical, mental and worldly problems in life and shower us with her unlimited blessings.
Durga
Goddess of Inner Strength
Remover of obstacles
Divine Mother of All
Mother of Ganesha
She rides the lion. He represents anger and in this chakra myth - she is a warrior and the Lion is under her control.
In this painting, I’ve equipped Durga with some tools to create her own reality plus traditional symbols: conch, lotus - symbolizing letting go. ”
