Goddess पार्वती
Parvati
Mother of the Universe
Daughter of the mountain king Himavan, Parvati embodies shakti—the active energy without which Shiva remains inert. She is gentle mother and fierce warrior.
Lore
Through austere tapas she won Shiva's heart after Sati's self-immolation. As Durga and Kali she defeats demons the gods cannot overcome alone, proving that divine feminine power is not secondary but essential.
