Durga, Kali, and the Matrikas Battle the Demon Raktabija: Scene from the Devi Mahatmya
1780
22.0 x 30.0 cm
Following the route of the Daitya army, the demon Raktabija attacks the goddess Kali. Initially, this foe seemed invincible because with each drop of his blood that fell on the ground another demon sprang up. However, the emaciated Kali was able to consume the falling blood, allowing the demon to be defeated. Here, Raktabija defends himself from Durga’s multi-armed assault, while the demons being created out of his wounds stand along Kali’s extended tongue.
