Maa Santoshi Aarti
About Maa Santoshi Aarti
Santoshi Mata is the humblest and soft spoken Avatar of Goddess Durga. She is the epitome of calmness and contentment. The Goddess resides in the lotus flower. She is pictured as living in the lotus flower situated in a milk sea. This symbolises that even though the world is full of miseries like sufferings, selfishness and evil, the purity of one’s heart, spreads goodness all around.
The mother of Satisfaction preaches that if you put a stop on all the wrong doings you will achieve the satisfaction that is missing in your life and will be able to gain calmness.
