Hinduism - Who Is Chandi?

  



 (“aggressive”) Durga and Kali are two ferocious and strong deities who are given this epithet. 


Chandika is a variant form of Chandi, and it is under this name that Chandi is recognized as one of the Navadurgas, the "nine [forms of the goddess] Durga" adored during the Navaratri festival's nine nights. 


Chandika is the most powerful of these heavenly forms, since she is adored during the festival's ninth and last night.
