DURGA

DURGA is SHAKTI, The energy, material energy, this energy comes from a source, which is SHAKTIMAN, energy is femenine in nature, that is why durga is a woman, and Shaktiman is masculine in nature, but both are independent from each other, when the energetic comes in contact with the energy then the material creation is produced, she is the universal mother, that is why she is whorshiped, this is one thing and another aspect is that she represents the elimination of the tendency to control over the material energy, which is impossible and that is an impediment to the spiritual progresive evolution of the spiritual soul, when this tendency is eradicated the spiritual entity is free to break the material strata and joint the supreme spiritual being.
