Her name was derived from the sanskrit word, Ku means (little), Ushma means warmth, and Anda means egg, which is basically referring to the “little cosmic egg.” The name redirects to the person who has done all the creations after the darkness and emptiness took over. It is said that the fourth day of Navratri is under the source of light, energy, and relief. Mata Kushmanda rides a lion, symbolizing her powerfulness and fearlessness. She is also famously known as Ashtabhuja Devi, depicting her eight hands in which she carries all the power, strength and energy and removes all the emptiness and sorrows from a person's life.
