Durga Ma • Mala

Invoke the strength and protective power of this fearless Hindu goddess with our Durga Ma mala. Supported by the energy of Citrine crystals and Herkimer Diamonds, Durga embodies the fierce mother nature within us, rooted in caring and devotional love. As the great mother, she instills a strength and protection, so we may find the courage to defend what we hold sacred.

This organically shaped pendant, crafted with exquisite detail, depicts the strong mother goddess with multiple arms carrying weapons and boons, symbolizing her power to stand against evil. Durga and her ‘vahana’ (vehicle) - her lion - are surrounded by three small Citrine stones.  

The portal on the back of the pendant symbolizes an impassable fortress that wards off evil and protects that which is held safely within the warm embrace of these walls. 

The mala is made up of a beautiful composition of Herkimer Diamonds and Citrine.

Each piece of our jewelry has been blessed in a Balinese Ceremony.

• Materials: 22kt Gold Plated Recycled 925 Sterling Silver, Herkimer, Citrine

Durga, revered as the mother of everything, embodies the divine feminine's strength, protection, and nurturing aspects. She is the combined energies of all the gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Despite her fierce nature, she is a caring mother who wildly protects, bestowing empowerment and inner strength to help overcome obstacles in life. Her multiple arms carry various weapons, each representing a different deity's contribution to her strength and symbolizing her ability to ward off different forms of evil.

In Balinese culture, Durga is a symbol of protection, power, and the duality of existence, embodying both the nurturing and destructive forces that are essential to maintaining balance and harmony in the cosmos. Depicted riding a lion and holding various weapons, she represents mastery over power and will.

The backside of the pendant shows an intricately embellished doorway, protecting whatever lies behind it. Whether navigating a threshold or transitioning between old and new chapters, may the energy of Durga support any kind of passage to a world that is more true and just to your being.

Our Durga mala is made of Clear Quartz and Crystal and is a beautiful piece to combine with any of our shorter and medium-length pieces.

Citrine is a true power stone that represents the fierceness of the lion. It is the stone of the solar plexus chakra – the center of our inner fire, aligned action and passion. Citrine invokes the courage to follow our personal will.

Herkimer Diamond is known to be the most potent among all Quartz crystals. As a remarkable amplifier of spiritual energy and a conduit of universal Life Force, it heightens our connection to the divine realm.

We acknowledge Durga as a key figure of (Balinese) Hinduism. Please note, we honor this symbol's intention and energy instead of endorsing any particular religious belief.
