Maa Adishakti

hare krishna,

Who is Maa Adishakti Maa Lakshmi, Maa Parvati or Maa Saraswati and who defeated asuras like Mahisashur, Bhandasur, Raktabeej etc. and why is it told that Lord Adishakti is consort of Lord Shiva MAA adishakti is said to be the expansion of maa parvati who is consort of Lord Shiva. she killed many demons and worshipped in 9 forms in navratri. she is consort of param vasihnav and divine personality so she is very powerful, she can kill asuras to protect her devotees or as by the order of Lord or in anger if some demon insulted his husband shiva.
In one story Maa Adishakti killed Bhandasur who was a very powerful demon and he revived and sent many asuras and so in that story Lord Narsimha, Lord Vamana, Lord Ram and Lord Krishna came from the fingers of Maa Adishakti so how is this possible since Sri Krishna is considered the supreme being and why in many pauranik kathas Lord Vishnu is showed weak although he is supreme Lord it is not mentioned in srimadbhagwatam as per my knowledge, narsimha dev manisfested himself from pillar to keep belief of his dear devotee prahlad. lord vaman came as son of his dear devotee maa aditi as she got boon from lord (that lord will appear as his son for 3 lifetimes ) after doing austerity for long period . lord ram and lord krishna also appeared as part of that boon, not only this they appeared for other reasons too for example once jay vijay dwarpal in vaikuntha offended sankadi and their curse resulted them to come on earth as demon and lord has to come to deliver them as part of sankadi's relief from curse. bhagwatam kathas are filled with transcedtnal powers of lord krishna like govardhan katha, putna vadh katha, and so many more... where did he representd as weak? his acts are beyond our understanding. he is bhaktvatsla so he wants to glorify his devotees so he became charioteer to glorify his devotee arjuna. he make bhim ahead to kill jarasandha but it doesnt mean he is weak.
Why all asuras worshipped Lord Shiva lord shiva is called ashutosh means who becomes haapy easily with our little efforts . therefore lord shiva is worshipped by asuras so as to get mayavi powers soon... but lord shiva somehow get them delivered by lord vishnu through some lila as we can see in mohini avtara, and many others. also it is said that lord shiva gives shelter to bhuta pishach and all those creatures those are considered inauspicious as described that all these creatures were part in shiva vivah barat. so asuras also inauspicious and they might think that lord shiva can give them shelter easily.

i am less in knowldege , i just tried as per my knowledge. sorry to senior devotees if i am wrong somewhere.

hope your doubts get clear .

Hare Krsna

Sri Krishna is considered the supreme being

Lord Sri Krsna is not just considered as Supreme Being. Lord Sri Krsna IS the Supreme Being

īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ
sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ
anādir ādir govindaḥ
sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam

Kṛṣṇa who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes. ( Brahma Samhita 5.1)

Hare Krsna
