Kateri Amman: Difference between revisions

It is a popular misconception that Kateri Maa is [[Bahuchara Mata]], a folk goddess of Gujarat, while the two devis are separate. People use images/murtis of Bahuchara and [[Khodiyar]] to worship her and this is a big mistake, especially if they offer sacrifices alcohol and cigarettes to these devis.She is also considered to be [[Katyayini]] Devi, the sixth [[Navadurga]] but this is a big mistake as both Devis are different Devis with different reasons. People also use murtis of [[Venkateswara]] who is a Southern Indian Incarnation of Lord [[Vishnu]] and [[Shrinathji]] who is actually Lord [[Krishna]] as a seven-year old and it is in this form that he lifted up The [[Govardhan]] mountain after Indra created storms and rains. The habit of most people is that they usually consider all darkthe deities with a dark complexion, whether male or female to be Kateri Maa and this is a very big mistake that many people are making.
