Navaratri festival has begun . Today being the 5th day of Navaratri , I am writing about a demon named Bhandasur who was creating ruckus in the whole universe and finally got killed by Goddess Lalitambika .
Bhandasur was born out of the ashes of Kamadev . He performed different austerities to please God Shiva and was granted many boons such as whom so ever dared to fight with Bhandasur would forfeit his 50% of his own strength and masculinity to Bhandasur .
This made Bhandasur to win over each and every opponent of his ..He had become unruly and troublesome to whole universe . This made devas to plead for solution with goddess Durga .
They were performing the rituals by lighting the fire . Bhandasur came to know of this and attacked the devas . Due to fear , devas immolate themselves in the fire .
Goddess Parvati came to know of this and took the form of Tripura Sundari . She came to the rescue of devas with her army . She was successful in killing 30 sons of Bhandasur .
Using Maha pashupatastra , Goddess killed Bhandasur . With the so obtained ashes , she again gave birth to Kamadev .
