+ | ====== Devi Ambika ====== | ||
+ | Goddess Ambika is described both as the sister or consort of Rudra in the | ||

+ | also speaks of the same relationship of brother and sister between Ambika and | ||
+ | Rudra and a sister showing no mercy towards the wicked. The commentator of this | ||
+ | Brahmana, the sage Mahidhara, states that Ambika assumes the form of autumn. She | ||
+ | kills the enemies by way of creating diseases during this season. She creates | ||
+ | comforts for her devotes so that they are not affected in this duration. | ||
