Actually, it's all new lol.
I was wearing the Blueberry Breeanna dress when I got the vest from Emery and decided I wanted to wear it with a shorter version. Turns out that is the Sophia dress, same idea with less options, but I went over and got it right away. Paired it with the vest, my new Abigail boots from Phedora, my Deva Asura necklace from (luc) and my new Twyla animated hair from Little Bones. All in all a good day at Uber.
Hindu mythology contains a story about the churning of the Cosmic Ocean in order to obtain Amrita - the nectar of immortal life. At the suggestion of Vishnu the gods, (devas) and demons (asuras) churn the primeval ocean in order to obtain Amrita which will guarantee them immortality. To churn the ocean they used the Serpent King, Vasuki, for their churning-string. For a churning pole they use Mount Mandara placed on the back of a Great Tortoise - the Kurma Avatar of Vishnu. As the gods and demons churned the sea, a terrible poison issued out of its depths which enveloped the universe. The devas and asuras approach Shiva who took the poison into his throat and swallowed it. Shocked by his act, Goddess Parvati strangled his neck and hence managed to stop it in his neck and prevent it from spreading. However, the poison was so potent that it changed the colour of his neck to blue, thereby earning him the name of Neelakanta (blue-throated one).[3] When the Amrita finally emerged along with several other treasures the devas and asuras fought over it. However Vishnu in the form of Mohini the enchantress manages to lure the asuras into handing over the Amrita to her, which she then distributes to the devas. Rahu, an asura, disguises himself as a deva and tries to drink some Amrita himself. Surya (the sun-god) and Chandra (the moon-god) alert Vishnu to this deception. Vishnu then decapitates Rahu just as he is about to swallow the nectar, leaving only his head immortal.-wiki
Goddesses, supernatural animals and valuables that emerged from the churning of ocean are, Lakhsmi, Apsaras,Varuni,Kamadenu,Parijat,bow, Chandra,Dhanvantri and Halahala(Poison).

According to Wikipedia, Rakshasa were mythological beings that appear in stories in India and China. They can be good or evil, but most tended to be evil and known as "man-eaters" for their tendency to prey on people. I knew of them from the Dungeons and Dragons monster, which was a real nasty evil thing for an adventurer to run into.

Elle a six bras et trois visages. Je me suis inspiré d'une personnage du même nom du jeu Final Fantasy IV qui est, à son tour, inspirée de la mythologie hindoue. Mais, je ne pense pas qu'elle fait référence à une divinité hindoue particulière.

A couple of elephants make their way across the moat away from Angkor Thom's south gate entrance. This avenue which crosses over the moat is lined with several statues, gods on the left and demons (or 'asuras') on the right. Founded in the late 12th century by king Jayavarman VII, Angkor Thom is one of the largest of all the Khmer cities and was the capital up until around the 17th century. The name Angkor Thom means "Great City", and this view of the south gate is what most visitors will see first when they arrive here :-)

Tried Some Experimentation with hand held Long Exposure Shot of bharatanatyam Performer for Aigiri Nandini Nandita Medini Mahishasura Mardini Stotram at Indian Dance Festival 2016 ,Mamallapuram.
History:
Mahishasura Mardini is the incarnation of Goddess Durga who had taken birth to kill the asura king Mahisasura. Mahishasura was the king who ruled the kingdom of Mahisha or Mahishaka. According to Hindu Puranas, Mahisha was the son of an asura King Rambha who had fallen in love with a beautiful female buffalo named Shyamala. Shyamala was a princess who became a water buffalo due to the curse. Rambha due to his magical powers took the form of a male buffalo and by their union Mahisha was born with the head of a buffalo and human body. Mahishasura has the magical power to take the form of buffalo and human according to his wish. In Sanskrit language, Mahisha means Buffalo.
Mahishasura ruined the life of humans and conquered Earth (Prithvi Lokam) as well as Deva Loka (Swarga Lokam) by attacking Lord Indra, the King of Devas. All Gods and Goddess approached Lord Vishnu for a solution. Thus the powers of Trimurtis - the Trinity of Lord Brahma, Vishnu and Mahadeva - joined together for the creation of Goddess Durga (Mahamaya).
Goddess Durga was incarnated with ten arms, each having different warriors with Lion as her vehicle and possesses the power to destroy the demon rakshas Mahisha. Durga Maa went to fight with Mahisha and at the end of the fierce fight she got victory over Mahishasura. Thus Durga got the name Mahishasuramardini (The one who killed demon Mahisha). As Goddess save the world from the demon, Durga came to be known as the Mother of the Universe who embodies the primeval source of all power.
The mudgala purana states that the ganapati took the vakratunda incarnation to subdue the demon Maatsarya-asura (envy, jealousy).
The demon was born out of the negligence (pramaada) of Indra.
Indra is the Lord of the subtle tendencies, the mind.
When the mind is neglected, then demons are born.
The bad demon is envy.
This demon can be found in all fields, including spirituality.
Only when duality of "me" and the "other" is lost, one truly awakens to the state of nondual objectless awareness.
All that is left is pure bliss and consciousness.
This morning I saw this woman among a procession with Ganesha's devotees, she seemed to be possessed, somewhere else, but just after I took this picture she was smiling at me, relaxed in a state of bliss...
However I selected this image which is very different of the other portraits I shot of her.
