Meaning & History

Matangi is one of the Mahavidyas, ten Tantric goddesses and a ferocious aspect of PARVATI, the Hindu Divine Mother. She is considered to be the Tantric form of Parvati but she is very similar to SARASWATI. Like Sarasvati, Matangi and she governs speech, music, knowledge and the arts. Her worship is prescribed to acquire supernatural powers, especially gaining control over enemies, attracting people to oneself, acquiring mastery over the arts and gaining supreme knowledge.
