The Story Of Devi Kushmanda
The ancient myths reveal that when there was darkness everywhere, Maa Kushmanda created the entire Universe. That’s right, Maa Kushmanda is responsible for creating the cosmic world just with the help of her wonderful smile. Earlier, she also created celestial bodies like the Sun, stars and planets. She enables life to all living creatures through Sun’s ray, and therefore, Goddess is also known as Maa Shakti.
Afterwards, Maa Kushmanda formed three Hindu deities, Mahalakshmi, Mahakali and Mahasaraswati. By the grace of Maa Kushmanda, Mahakali gave birth to Lord Shiva and Goddess Saraswati. Goddess Mahalakshmi gave birth to Lord Brahma and Goddess Lakshmi. Whereas Goddess Saraswati gave birth to Lord Vishnu and Maa Shakti. Later, Goddess Saraswati got married to Lord Brahma, Goddess Lakshmi became the wife of Lord Vishnu, and Lord Shiva got a companion in the form of Maa Shakti.
