MythQuest 10: Mahishasura: The Buffalo Demon

Anu Kumar

This is the story of Mahishasura, the terrible and mighty asura who took on the gods and ousted them from Heaven. His evil reign was brought to an end by the all-powerful Goddess Durga. 'He charged forward, his head lowered, his horns curved and menacing, symbolizing destruction...' He was the much-feared asura who was more powerful than the bravest warrior on earth, stronger than the divine beings in Heaven and braver than any of the creatures in the underworld. Mahishasura, the buffalo demon, blessed by Lord Brahma unleashed such a reign of terror, that it finally took the combined forces of all the gods to defeat him. Read about his thrilling battles...
