What is the Hindu god Durga's popularity?

Durga (literally a fort for the believers) is the mother Goddess and not a God. In mythology, the Hindu trinity of Gods, Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu pooled their powers to create Durga to kill a demon whom they could not have killed with their individual powers. That is why another name for the Goddess is Shakti (power). All Goddesses in Hinduism are considered to be only the forms of Mother Durga. Worship of Mother Durga is popular all over India, but in the Eastern states of Assam and Bengal, Durga rules supreme. The Goddess is worshiped in October during the nine days of Durga puja/Navaratri in her nine forms. Kali also is a form of Durga. Durga is auspicious and beautiful whereas Kali is ferocious in protection of her devotees and in enemity of evil. Durga is depicted as having eight hands holding various armaments and rides a lion.
