Question

This deity likely inspired a similarly named Egyptian servant who is venerated by a procession of horses entering the sea. The traditions of this deity influenced a pilgrimage to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer (“sahnt mah-REE duh lah MEHR”) as part of the Romani worship of Saint Sara (“sah-RAH”), whose name sometimes adds the name of this deity. (15[1])The poetry of Ramprasad Sen mostly addresses this deity, often with the title “Ma.” The iconography of this deity, who is (15[1])particularly (-5[1])popular in Bengal, includes a (*) garland of severed heads and a garment of tiger skin, much like the Buddhist deity Tara (“TAH-rah”). The Rolling Stones’ logo (10[1])of a tongue sticking out (10[1])was inspired by images of this goddess standing on her consort Shiva. For 10 points, name this Hindu goddess who emerged from Durga’s forehead and symbolizes time or death. ■END■ (10[1])
