It is believed that Vaishno Devi is the combination of divine powers associated with Hindu Goddesses Kali, Lakshmi, Saraswati and Durga.

Vaishno Devi Mandir, is a temple cave set within the Trikuta Mountains. The temple comprises naturally formed caves. Devotees pay their respects to three naturally formed rocks that embody Maha Lakshmi, Maha Kali and Maha Saraswati.
