Believed to embody the divine energies of Hindu Goddesses Kali, Lakshmi, Saraswati, and Durga, Vaishno Devi attracts millions of devotees annually. Legend has it that the goddess, to evade the advances of the Tantric Bhaironath, took refuge in the Trikuta Hills and eventually vanquished him, signifying the triumph of good over evil.
