As stated in the Vamana Purana, Mahisha, king of the giants, at one time, overcame the gods in war and reduced them to such a state of want that they wandered through the earth as beggars. The gods sought the help of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva and the other gods and they emitted such flames from their eyes and countenances that a mountain of effulgence was formed, from which became manifest, Goddess Durga. Shiva gave her his trident, Vishnu a discus, Varuna a conch shell, Agni a dart, Vayu a bow, Surya a quiver full of arrows, Indra a thunder belt, Kubera a mace, and Brahma a rosary which she holds in her numerous arms.
