Skandamata
Skandamata is the fifth form of the Hindu Goddess Durga. Her name comes from word, Skanda is another name for war god Kartikeya and Mata is the term of mother. As one of the Navadurga, Her worship takes place on the fifth day of Navaratri (nine nights of Navadurga). ==Symbolism== Skandamata is four-armed and rides on a lion. She carries a lotus, a water material and a bell. Her one hand is in blessing posture. Lord Skanda can be seen in her lap. She possesses four arms out of which two often hold the lotus flowers. One of her hands is always in the boon-conferring gesture and with the other she holds her son Skanda in her lap. Her complexion is white and she is seated on the lotus. So, she is also called the Goddess with a lotus-seat. The Lion also is her vehicle.
