Maa Durga was born to Himalaya, the king of mountains, as his daughter named Maa Parvati and performed deep meditation to win over Lord Shiva as her husband on the advice of Maharshi Narad. During this deep meditation, she spent several years without consuming water or eating anything, owing to which, she was named Tapashcharini i.e. Brahmacharini.
