Parvati, like Durga, is another form of the great goddess
Devi and her name means mountain. She is the daughter of Himavan, god of the
Himalayas, hence her designation as Daughter of the Mountain.
“The association between Parvati and Shiva is often
seen to represent the perennial tension between the ideals of the ascetic and
the householder. Parvati’s aim is to lure Shiva into the world of marriage,
sex, and children, to tempt him away from asceticism, yoga, and otherworldly
preoccupations. In this role Parvati is cast as a figure who enhances life in
the world, who represents the beauty and attraction of worldly, sexual life, and
who cherishes the home and the family.”
