#12-25 Hindu National Goddesses (part 2)
Four women present stories and songs about these ancient female deities and how they are worshiped today. Part 1 (last week) is about village goddesses and how they meet a wide range of people’s needs. Part 2, Major Hindu Goddesses, is about Hinduism’s consolidation of goddesses to build national unity; yet the same goddess may have many different names and functions, including – very popular – exemplifying the supportive wife.
