Chanda and Munda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Hinduism, Chanda and Munda are asuras (demons) in the service of Shumbha. After the death of Dhumralochana, Shumbha sent them to fight Devi Kaushiki and then after watching them Kaushiki turned black and Kali sprung from her head and killed them. Then Kaushiki gave the name Chamunda to Kali. Afterward Raktabīja was sent, but was slain by Goddess Kali.
