Brass Statues of Durga

Folklore claims that Brahma, Krishna, Mahadev, and the minor gods weren't able to vanquish the buffalo demon Mahishasura, therefore conceived Durga to assist them to destroy him. She is simultaneously a progeny of the male divine beings and the true wellspring of their strength of character, representing their unity of strength (shakti). She is incomparable to each of them as well. Durga, who'd been conceived gorgeous and fully developed, terrifies her enemies with her menacing appearance. 

Durga and Mahishasura, the legendary battle

The magnificent Durga earned a greeting from each of the Hindu divinities. The powerful goddess declared, "Give me your armaments and I shall destroy he who attempts to conquer me." The goddess acquiesced. Shiva handed his trident to Vishnu, who would then give it to Indra, Kurmara, and Brahma. Vishnu also handed his discus and mace to Indra. Durga then rode a lion and prepared for combat. Mahisha heard about Durga, the gorgeous goddess who resides atop Mount Meru. The buffalo demon stated, "She will be my empress." He issued a directive to Chanda and Munda, his two commanders, to go find her. The Buffalo Demon's marriage proposal was delivered to Durga by Chanda and Munda. Durga stayed quiet. The great goddess lashed back, wielded her sword, and chopped both commanders' heads. Mahisha was outraged at the vehement denial of his wedding proposal.

In an attempt to seize Durga, 1 million asuras equipped with arrows, darts, swords, and daggers invaded Mount Meru. They proceeded up the slope, and soon 1 million demon heads were visible rolling down Mount Meru and painting its slopes with blood. Blood from the demons was devoured by Durga. Mahisha, who'd been embarrassed by the loss, asked the goddess about why she wouldn't peacefully marry him.  The goddess replied, "I would only marry the person who overcomes me in battle." The buffalo devil responded, "Then we should battle. A huge battle began. Various weapons were hurled at the buffalo devil, but he proceeded to escape from each confrontation unscathed. The Hindu goddess Durga discarded her weaponry when she realized that Mahisha was unfazed by them. She immediately jumped off her lion leapt onto Mahisha's shoulders only with her hands. She stepped on his skull with her dainty foot. The contact of Durga's feet left the demon, who was immune to all of the deities' weaponry, comatose. Then, using her trident, Durga struck the buffalo devil in the chest, accomplishing the unimaginable.
