Goddess Annapurna

Goddess Annapurna is a well-known form of Goddess Parvati. She is the goddess of food and safeguards the people against starvation and famine. It is common practice for the Hindus to have the small statue or portrait of Devi Annapurna at kitchen and pooja room.

As per the Hindu scriptures, Goddess Parvati took the form of Annapurna during the full moon day occurring during the Shukla Paksha of the Margashirsha month. This day is observed by the Hindus as Annapurna Jayanthi.

Once upon a time, there was severe famine and many were dying due to hunger and starving. The situation was dire and no other god or goddess was able to set right the situation. At last, everybody surrendered to Goddess Parvati and the goddess took the form of Devi Annapurna to save the people from famine and starvation.
