The Story of Durgai – Mahishasura Mardhini
The demon Mahishasura, after acquiring near-immortal powers through penance, became tyrannical and threatened the balance of the cosmos. No male deity could defeat him. In response, the gods united their energies, and from that luminous force arose Durgai—an embodiment of Shakti, divine feminine energy. With ten arms wielding celestial weapons, and riding a lion, she battled Mahishasura over nine nights and finally destroyed him on the tenth—celebrated as Vijayadashami. This Golu doll captures her divine wrath and victorious calm in that moment of triumph. In your Kolu bommai, this story lives on, teaching that every force of darkness meets its end when faced with the light of truth, courage, and devotion.
