Historical Background[]

In Hindu mythology, Mahishasura was an asura. Asuras were a group of power-seeking deities, sometimes referred to as demons or sinful, and were opposed to the Devas. Mahishasura's father Rambha was king of the asuras, and he once fell in love with a water buffalo; Mahishasura was born out of this union. He is therefore able to change between human and buffalo form at will (mahisha = buffalo). Because of his piety towards Brahma he could not be defeated in battle by any man or god. He then went on to terrorize heaven but would be destroyed by the Hindu goddess Durga.
