The transmission of power and glory from their beings into the being of the created figure has been depicted by the rays of light radiating from them and terminating into her.
She has eighteen arms, except one which already has a bell, held out to receive gods' weapons. As prescribed in texts, she has been rendered as an unparalleled beauty with long hair, large eyes, long arms, fine fingers, prominent breasts, slender waist, thin slanting figure and is clad in brilliant clothes and gorgeous rich jewels. Her forehead is adorned with Shiva's third eye and her crown with three crests endows her with the cosmic attributes of the Creator, Sustainer and Destroyer.
