Durga दुर्गा | The Goddess Revealed at the Shrine | Museum Poster

दुर्गा | When she first stepped onto the earth, child, even the shrine bowed to her. Look — the sun-disc behind her head, the great lion at her side, her weapons quiet in her many hands. She does not need to lift them yet. The flowers know who she is. The stone columns know. The morning light bends toward her without being asked. This is the moment before the battle, when the world has just remembered that its Mother is here. Stand a moment with the lion. Breathe. The story is about to begin.
