In her ninth avataar as Maa Siddhidatri, we worship the Devi as the giver of all “Siddhi” or accomplishment - of knowledge, wisdom, meditation and peace. A woman in all her forms endeavours to maintain harmony and balance so that there is always peace and love. Even in her role as a slayer, her attempt is not to punish anyone but to enable them to redeem.

The nine forms of Durga are a reminder of a woman's ability and her prowess as a guide, an enlightened soul. Lets not extinguish this forever.
