One of the most divine forms of Maa Durga is known as Siddhidatri Mata. The word Siddhidatri comes by joining two Sanskrit words “Siddhi” which means perfection while the word “datri” means one who provides or bestows. The word Siddhidatri does mean the Goddess who grants perfection in every activity that Her devotees undertake.
Goddess Siddhidatri is one of the nine forms of Goddess Durga. She is worshipped on the 9th day of Navratri. Navami is the Navratri Ninth Day which is considered as the highly auspicious day of the Navaratri festival. It is on this ninth day that Goddess Siddhidatri is worshipped.
Planet Ketu is ruled by Goddess Siddhidatri. She is the Supreme power who rules the mind of Her devotee and offers motivation to lead a disciplined life that is spiritually elevated. Worshipping Her with complete devotion is said to appease the Goddess who in turn blesses the Sadhaka with great Siddhis. Moreover, She also removes all the fear and puts an end to all the sufferings Her devotees face. She is also known for fulfilling desires and offering true knowledge.
The Markandaya Purana mentions that there are eight major Siddhis namely the Anima, Mahima, Garima, Laghima, Prapti, Prakamya, Ishitva, and Vashitva whereas, the Bramavaivart Purana mentions that there are 18 types of Siddhis that Goddess Siddhidatri offer. Theses Siddhis are Anima, Mahima, Garima, Laghima, Prapti, Prakamya, Ishitva, Vashitva, Sarvakaamaal, Saadhita, Sarvagynatva, Durshravana, Parkaayapraveshan, Vakasiddhi, Kalpavrushatva, Shrishti, Samharkaransaamarthya, Amaratva, Sarvanyayakatva, Bhavana and Siddhi.

Mata Siddhidatri is the original form of Goddess Parvati. According to the iconography, She is seen draped in a red saree sitting on a Lotus flower which is completely bloomed. She holds weapons in all Her four hands. In Her right upper hand, She holds a discuss on Her index finger. She holds a conch shell in Her left upper hand. She holds a mace in Her right lower hand and a lotus in Her left lower hand. Cladded in ornaments and a beautiful fresh flower garland around Her neck, Siddhidatri Devi looks extremely divine and beautiful in this form.
Siddhidatri Mata ki Katha/ Maa Siddhidatri Story
The origin of Navam Siddhidatri is awe-striking. When the universe was only a huge void totally brimming with dimness, there was nothing! No light, no species, no creation, no time, no nature. It was then that a beam of celestial light spread all over the place. This light was so divine and bright that it covered every bit of the void making it visible and lit. This ocean of light was amorphous. After a few moments, this light abruptly began taking a specific shape which ultimately took the form of Goddess Mahashakti Herself. The Supreme Goddess brought into existence, the Trinity of Gods namely Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahadev. Mahashakti made the Trinity understand the reason for their existence.
She guided all the three Lords to observe and understand the respective part each one of them would perform along with their pre-determined set of contributions and responsibilities in order to fulfill their duties towards the world. Obeying the instructions of Goddess Mahashakti, the Tridev walked towards an ocean and in a seated position performed atonements for a very long period of time. Appeased with their dedication and obedience, the Divine Goddess showed up before them in Her most divine form which was of Siddhidatri Mata.
Goddess Siddhidatri gifted the Trinity abundantly with many Siddhis. In addition to this, She blessed Lord Brahma with a Spouse who was no other than Her own form, Goddess Saraswati. She then blessed Lord Vishnu with a consort who was again a divine form of Siddhidatri Mata Herself which was that of Goddess Lakshmi. She also blessed Lord Shiva with a consort who was again one of Her most divine forms, Goddess Parvati.
She then assigned Lord Brahma the role of being the one who would create the world, She entrusted Lord Vishnu with the duty to preserve the creation and the creatures that She would produce and She assigned Mahadev with the job of devastating the universes when the time comes. She also informed them that their powers reside in the form of their respective consorts and that their wives would assist them in performing the assigned tasks. She also assured them that She would be blessing each one of them with additional powers and Siddhis which will help them to complete their tasks.
With Her immense Teja (splendor), Goddess Siddhidatri created more other Gods, demons, demigods, the galaxies, universes, planets, solar system, flowers, the trees, the land, the water bodies, the animals, mountains, fishes, birds and everything that co-exists. All the flora and fauna thus came into being and the fourteen worlds were established at the same time. Hence, in Her Siddhidatri form, the Goddess is seen worshipped by Asuras, Devas, Gandharvas, Yakshas, and all the other creations of the world.
As mentioned in the Devi Purana, Siddhidatri Mata was appeased by the Lord Shiva’s worship and blessed Him with eight Siddhis namely
Anima- Supernatural power to shrink or soul Mahima- Supernatural power to enlarge Garima- Supernatural power to become extremely heavy Laghima- Supernatural power to become weightless Prapti- Supernatural power to be omnipresent Prakambya- Supernatural power to achieve desires Ishitva- Supernatural power to possess Lordship Vashitva- Supernatural power to conquer everything
According to an ancient belief, the ‘Ardhanareshwar’ form of Lord Shiva has Goddess Siddhidatri as His significant half. Appeased with Lord Shiva’s worship, Goddess Siddhidatri blessed Lord Shiva with the ‘Ardhanareshwar’ form which is a symbol of Holy unification of divine feminine and male energies. In this form, half body of Lord Shiva and half body of Maa Siddhidatri unified thus creating the most powerful and divine form. As mentioned above, She is the creator of every particle that exists in this space all beings worship Her with utmost devotion in order to appease Her and to receive Siddhis from Her.
It is also believed that if a Sadhaka (devotee) worships Siddhidatri Mata with utmost devotion and according to the vidhi as mentioned in the Holy ancient Scriptures an individual is blessed with the Siddhi that makes one realize that all that exists is Brahman or Supreme Being and He can attain anything he wants from this universe

Dear Kantiji, I made the head mala with 1 Mukhi in the center and placed the nine, 9 mukhi beads in two pairs on each side of the head with the ninth 9 mukhi at the rear of the mala. I, however felt that I wanted to have the 1 Mukhi Rudraksha with me all the time so it became part of a mala containing 1 through 14 Mukhi including a newly acquired 9 mukhi I asked Ms. Neeta for, plus Ganesha Bead and GauriShankar totaling 28 Rudraksha in total. I tried wearing the nine 9 mukhi as a braclet but found that my activities placed them in harm's way. I was afraid that I would inadvertently hit them on
Dear Ms. Neetaji, Namaste! I received your package today. What a pleasure to receive these fine rudraksha and Mala. Their quality and beauty were just as I had anticipated. I felt their energy and soothing properties during my morning meditation. I have given the 4 mukhi to our daughter. She was thrilled with her gift and we all appreciate your sincere thoughtfulness. Your gifts are also appreciated. I am listening to the Rudraksha Poojan & Dharan, it is very nice. I have placed the picture of Goddess Mahalaxmi along with the lovely Shree Yantra on my altar. Thank you for these lovely gift
Dear All, Good Day. I first purchased a Akarshaya Siddha Mala from RC. Immediately after that I was given the additional responsibility of photographing all my company�s activity. For short it can be called as I became the official photographer of my company. After that I got my bank loan to clear off all my financial issues. I did that. Along with that I went for an Indra Mala. This time after much delay from my side I got the mala which was reserved to me by Neetaji (which was energized on the 9 days of navratri). I started wearing both malas and my spiritual levels are increasing very muc
Hello, Ms. Neeta and Rudra Centre staffs I would like to thank you very much for a fast delivery of my items and also thank you for the beautiful gifts. I am new to use the rudraksha beads.

Miracle I had the bad habit of chewing Manik Chand Gutka from 1994. I have made all efforts to leave it but in vain. My wife tried her level best to stop it but failed. But when I decided to buy 1mukhi java from you, I read in K N Seethaji book that 1mukhi java will remove all bad habits from the wearer. So I ordered the 1 mukhi. And unknowingly I have left the Manik Chand totally. Now almost 10 months gone. I never touched the tobacco. Thanking you and with best regards, Mr. Sunilkumar Biradar
Dear Rudra Centre, I am very happy with the products that i have purchased thus far from your website. In a world where there are millions of cheats, trying to make a quick dollar from devotees in the name of the good lord, selling false beads and low quality products, it is nice to know that rudra centre is so genuine and so caring. This company truly is looking for the enlightenment and aid of all people. The products that you sell have helped my family members greatly. For example, my uncle who would be very ill-tempered is enjoying much more peace and tranquility by wearing the eight muki

Dear Ms. Neeta: I have taken time to write you my experiences with wearing the 19 mukhi rudraksha that you recommended to me in August. I hope this helps your research and other people. I have been wearing my 19 mukhi Rudraksa provided to me by Ms. Neeta Ji. I have been keeping close track of the transformation I have experienced by wearing this divine bead. I hope to give some understanding on the effects that I have personally felt. I am trying to describe the effects and feelings with humility and in no way am trying to gloat. First off I want to let you know about myself and how I was intr
Thank you Rudra Centre, I must say one thing that after the purchase of any product, almost all centers do not answer to queries, but you have always solved all the problems. Hats off to your team. God bless you. OM NAMAH SHIVAY A.K.Jagwani
Respected Neeta Ji, Namaste, I am very much attached with you and your centre. Now a days I feel much better in physically and mentally, after wearing your recommended ARM BAND and GEM STONES which you adviced me according to my birth chart and requirement. I have shared my experiences with all near and dear one. Regards Sraboni Dasgupta
Dear Mrs Neetaji, As you know I was suffering severe shoulder & neck pains for 2 years and nothing could cure them even though I went to several doctors and attended hospital appointments. Thank you for recommending and guiding that I take up Aura-Chakra Therapy which found that I had throat chakra problems. I love the special mala you made for wearing near my throat. Its helped me a lot. I can say 80% of my pains are gone ever since I started wearing the mala. Previously I could only look downwards as movement of my neck was restricted by pain. Now I am able to look upwards and downwards
To All, Once again, I am grateful for your service and quality. My package came so fast and it was packed carefully. The sphatik mala is sooo beautiful and the fresh bright green bilva patra remain in my heart. Thank you - Thank you - Thank you Always, Monica
