Chamunda sometimes called Chamundi,Chamundeshwari and Charchika, is a fearsome aspect of Devi, the Hindu Divine Mother and one of the vital seven Matrikas (mother goddesses). She may be one of the vital chief Yoginis, a group of sixty-four or eighty-one Tantric goddesses,who are attendants of the warrior goddess Durga. The name is a combination of Chanda and Munda, two monsters whom Chamunda killed. She is closely associated with Kali, another fierce aspect of Devi. She is every now and then identified with goddesses Parvati, Chandi or Durga as well. As per Devi Mahatmya, Goddess Chamunda emerged as Chandika Jayasundara from an eyebrow of goddess Kaushiki, a goddess created from “sheath” of Durga and used to be assigned the task of getting rid of the demons Chanda and Munda, generals of demon kings Shumbha-Nishumbha. She fought a fierce battle with the demons, in the long run killing them. Goddess Chandika Jayasundara took the slain heads of the two demons to goddess Kaushiki, who became immensely pleased. Kaushiki blessed Chandika Jayasundara and bestowed upon her the title of “Chamunda”, to commemorate the latter’s victory over the demons. The famous Chamunda Nandikeshwar Dham (located in the Northern a part of Himachal Pradesh, India) is an abode of Shiva Shakti since the saga of Puranas. In keeping with a legend, the Goddess Chamunda used to be enshrined as chief Goddess with the title of Rudra in the battle between demon Jalandhra and Lord Shiva which made this place famous as “Rudra Chamunda”.
