Devi

Devi is the Sanskrit word for goddess or female deity and means divine, heavenly and a thing of high excellence. The term for a male deity is Deva. A Devi is as powerful as the male Devas Vishnu and Shiva and their great potency is great as they embody all aspects of womanhood. A Devi is the quiet and nurturing mother goddess of India and the protector of Indian villages. Dewi Sri, the most revered Hindu goddess in Bali and Java, is an earth god who controls and sustains the rice crop and fields and personifies the life force that controls birth, life, wealth and prosperity
