The fiercest manifestation of Maa Durga, a form of Maa Kali. Destructive to those with a vagabond approach to sadhana, Candika Devi is known as glorious yet, a very powerfully fierce aspect of Maa Durga, upon invocation of the Sakthi within.
She looks ‘awe inspiring’ yet brings imminent doom to those stuck in the doldrums of maya, fueled by greed.
Hence the name, Candika.
