Bipodtarini Devi
Popularly known as Bipattarini (Bipottarini), also termed as Bipodtarini or Bipadtarini is a Hindu goddess (Devi), worshipped in West Bengal, Orissa and surrounding areas. Closely associated with goddess ''Sankattarani'' and considered as one of the 108 Avatars of the goddess Durga, Bidaptarini is especially prayed to for help in overcoming troubles. Her legends which are recounted during the annual festival associated with her, the ''Bipadtarini Vrata'', observed by women, on the Panchami, fifth day of the Shukla paksha (waxing moon) in month of Ashada according to the Hindu calendar. Her legends established her name, Bipada – Tarini, which literally means ''deliverer from troubles''.
==Legend==
The ''puja'' (ritual worship) of Bipodtarini - a vrata (vow) performed by women - is followed or preceded by the telling of the legend of the goddess. The legend is set in Vishnupur or Bishnupur (in the present West Bengal), the seat of the Mallabhum kingdom from 7th century AD to 18th century during the period of Malla kings. The queen had a friend belonging to a low caste called Muci, who occasionally ate beef. The queen was horrified to learn this, as consumption of beef is considered sacrilegious in Hinduism. Nevertheless, out of curiosity the queen wanted to see the meat. One day, the queen asked her friend to show it to her. The girl initially refused, fearing the wrath of the pious Hindu king, however later she complied with the queen's request. However, the queen got betrayed and the furious king rushed to kill her. The queen hid the meat in her clothes and prayed to goddess Durga for help. Subsequently when the king tore her clothes to find what was hidden beneath them, all he could find there was a red hibiscus flower. Even today the goddess's puja remains part of women’s rites and is performed for the goddess' intervention during a family crisis.〔
Like some other manifestations of Durga, who are invoked during time of specific crisis, or to help an ailing family member, Bipadtarini is also prayed as "cure deity". The annual Bipadtarini-Puja is an important event in the religious calendar of most temples in the region.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sarbamangala Mandir )〕
