Vishvambhari
Vishvambhari (Sanskrit: विश्वम्भरि, romanized: Viśvambhari) is an epithet of the supreme goddess Mahadevi in Hinduism. Literally translating to, "all-wearing", it refers to the attribute of the goddess as the personification of the Earth, the divine consort of Vishnu (as Bhumi), as well as her guardianship and sustenance of all beings that reside upon it. In the Adbhuta Ramayana, Vishvambhari is named by Rama as one of the 1008 epithets of the goddess Mahakali. She also has a dedicated Gujarati hymn called the Vishvambhari Stuti which is sung during the festival of Navratri.[1]
