Chandralamba Parameshwari

 Chandralamba Parameshwari is a respected Hindu goddess and an incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi. She is mainly worshipped in Karnataka and serves as a family deity for many people in Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh. In her form, she is seen holding a conch shell (shankha) and a discus (chakra). According to a legend, A sage named Narayana Muni prayed to Goddess Lakshmi to rescue his wife, Princess Chandravadani, who was held captive by an evil king. The goddess came to the rescue in the form of Chandralamba. She sent five bumblebees from her sacred sandals to defeat the king, causing him to drown in the Bhima River. This story shows her as a powerful protector of the righteous who fights against evil.
