Maa Chandraghanta guards her devotees against evil. Her pictorial depiction shows her endowed with ten hands and mounted on a tiger. She holds a trident (Trishul), a mace (gada), a sword (talwar), a pitcher (kamandal) on the left side and a lotus, a bow, an arrow and Japa mala on the right. She holds the vara mudra and the Abhaya mudra in the other two hands, respectively. Last but not least, #Maa Chandraghanta has the third eye that opens only during times of war.
