Mahishasura and Durga Story



LI: To find information about the topic.

This week for reading we had to get into partners and find a story we want to read. The story me and my partner picked was Mahishasura and Durga, a story from India. This story was about an evil demon that had the head of a buffalo. His name was Mahishasura. He wanted to rule the world with evil. He challenged his way through every single god beating them. The gods retired. The gods knew that Mahishasura could only die from a woman so they created a beautiful goddess named Durga that had 18 arms. She went to go challenge Mahishasura to stop his ways of evilness. As Durga was in war with Mahishasura she was holding one of the weapons the gods gave her. Mahishasura shape shift into different forms until he was forced to go back into his normal form with the buffalo head. Mahishasura threw mountains at Durga, she dodged his attack. Durga then jumped up onto Mahishasura and cut his head off. We had to write down questions and the characters personalities. In our DLO there had to be a sort of movement like audio or a video.
