SIDDHESHWARI
Siddheshwari
Kashi Khand has prescribed Durga Devi Yatra during Navratri where devotees have been exhorted to worship Durga Devi on all the nine days of Navratri.
Devotees worship Siddheshwari Devi on the 9th day of Navratri falling in September-October.
Maa Durgas 9th form is Siddhi Dhatri. She gives all sorts of siddhi to her devotees. There are several types of Siddhis mentioned in various Purans. According to Devi Puran, Lord Shiva attained all the Siddhi by her blessings. His half body assumed the form of Goddess. So he is also called Ardha Narishwar.
Maa Siddhi Dhatri has four hands. Her vehicle is Lion. She sits on a lotus flower. She has a Chakra in her lower right hand, a mace/club in her upper right hand, a conch in her lower left hand and a lotus flower in her upper left hand.
Her devotees are freed from sorrow and they get salvation after enjoying all happiness in the world.
