EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the majestic statue of Mahishasura, an iconic figure in Hindu mythology, located atop the Chamundi Hills in Mysore, India. Dating back to the 1910s, this statue represents Mahishasura, an Asura or demon, who is often depicted as a symbol of chaos and evil forces in Hindu mythology. The Devas, or gods, are believed to be in constant battle with the Asuras, and Mahishasura is one of the most famous and powerful Asuras in Hindu mythology. Mahishasura is depicted in this statue as a fearsome monster, with multiple heads, a human torso, and the body of a buffalo. He is shown wielding a sword in one hand and a snake as a crown on his head. The statue is set against the backdrop of the beautiful Chamundi Hills, adding to its mystical allure. The legend of Mahishasura tells the story of his defeat at the hands of the goddess Chamundeshwari, who is also revered at the Chamundi Hills. The goddess is believed to have slayed Mahishasura after a long and grueling battle, and his defeat is celebrated every year during the Dasara festival in Mysore. This photograph provides a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of India, showcasing the intricacies of Hindu mythology and the enduring power of its mythological figures. The statue of Mahishasura at Chamundi Hills is a testament to the depth and complexity of Hindu mythology and the deep spiritual connection that Indians have with their ancient traditions.
