Doubts & Discussions about Lord Shiva Part-2 - Page 5

Ok my doubt is related to Devi Parvati. It might have been previously asked, so sorry for a repeated question:

In Shiva Puraana, Parvati is dark, and since Shiva teases her, she does penance and her dark hue gets transformed into Devi Kaushiki and she becomes Gauri.

But in Devi Mahatmya, Devi Parvati is fair already and her fairness gets transformed into Kaushiki Devi and she becomes black and she is called Kalika.

So the colour of Kaushiki changes and Parvati alternately becomes Gauri/Kali.

So is this the story of some other Kalpa or something?

And also, Devi says she will be born as Yashoda's daughter to kill Shumbha and NIshumbha's punarjanmas. Which two asuras were these?

Yes, Vishnu and Parvati are brother- sister, so they share the same colour complexion.

i want to ask one question,how can mata durga be vindhya vasini if she is parvati and lives at kailash?

how can one person be at two places the same time?

When Mata Durga took birth as Yashoda's daughter, and went to Kamsa's prison, she flew out of his hands and prophesied his death. After that she went to the Vindhya hills to do penance. Her name is Yogamaya or Ekanamsa. According to Lalita Madhava, she was present there to welcome the incarnation of Devi Lakshmi as the gopis and Devi Radha. These babies (incarnations) were carried off by the Rakshasi Poothana and by divine intervention, were dropped at Gokul, VRindavan, Barsana and surrounding places.

Devi also killed Sumbha and Nishumbha over here. Btw, can you clear the doubt above, of mine?
