Durga - The legend of the multi-limbed, lion-riding Hindu Goddess of War
When the evil, shape-shifting demon king, Mahishasura, terrorized heaven and earth, there was no one, not even the Gods, who had the power to stop him. He was smart; so no one could trick him. He was strong; so no one could defeat him. Left with no choice, the Gods had to make a bold and unprecedented decision to combat him and his ruthless army. In this episode, we talk about Durga, the Goddess of War and her epic clash with one of the most terrifying villains in Indian mythology.
