v2.c19.582

**Durgā's battle with Mahiṣāsura.** Durgā advances from the right, in ten-armed *rājasic* form, armed with sword, axe, bow, spear, shield, discus and bell; she is accompanied by the boyish *gaṇas* of Śiva bearing the trident and armed with shields and swords. The buffalo *asura* charges from the left, whence too there blows a storm wind, and heavy clouds are beating up.
