Durga Mata is a powerful Hindu goddess, symbolizing strength, courage, and protection. She is often depicted riding a lion or tiger, with multiple arms holding weapons, signifying her ability to combat evil. Durga is revered as the divine mother who protects her devotees from harm and destruction. She is associated with the triumph of good over evil, particularly during the festival of Durga Puja, where her victory over the buffalo demon Mahishasura is celebrated, symbolizing the destruction of ignorance and negativity.
