Description
Ma Skandamata is the fifth avatar of Durga and is worshipped on the fifth day of Navratri. Skanda is another name for Lord Kartikeya (Parvati’s son and Lord Ganesha’s brother). Mata means mother and thus Skandamata means mother of Skanda or Kartikeya. As is clear from the name, she is another form of Parvati. Listen to the complete story only on this podcast. मां स्कंदमाता दुर्गा के पांचवें अवतार हैं और नवरात्रि के पांचवें दिन उनकी पूजा की जाती है। स्कंद भगवान कार्तिकेय (पार्वती के पुत्र और भगवान गणेश के भाई) का दूसरा नाम है। माता का अर्थ है माता और इस प्रकार स्कंदमाता का अर्थ है स्कंद या कार्तिकेय की माता। जैसा कि नाम से स्पष्ट है, वह पार्वती का दूसरा रूप है। पूरी कहानी सिर्फ इस पॉडकास्ट पर सुनें।
