  • Matangi (Sanskrit: मातङ्गी, Mātaṅgī) is a Hindu goddess. She is one of the Mahavidyas, ten Tantric goddesses and an aspect of the Hindu Divine Mother. She is considered to be the Tantric form of Saraswati, the goddess of music and learning. Matangi governs speech, music, knowledge and the arts. Her worship is prescribed to acquire supernatural powers, especially gaining control over enemies, attracting people to oneself, acquiring mastery over the arts and gaining supreme knowledge. Matangi is often associated with pollution, inauspiciousness and the periphery of Hindu society, which is embodied in her most popular form, known as Uchchhishta-Chandalini or Uchchhishta-Matangini. She is described as an outcaste (Chandalini) and offered left-over or partially eaten food (Uchchhishta) with unwashed hands or food after eating, both of which are considered to be impure in classical Hinduism. Matangi is represented as emerald green in colour. While Uchchhishta-Matangini carries a noose, sword, goad, and club, her other well-known form, Raja-Matangi, plays the veena and is often pictured with a parrot. (en)

  • Matangi est une déesse de l'hindouisme qui fait partie des dix divinités de grande sagesse: les dasha Mahavidya. Elle est décrite comme une jeune demoiselle, à la peau verte ou bleue. Selon les légendes, elle est issue d'une famille d'intouchables, ou alors de la nourriture consommée par les dieux Shiva et Parvati, entre autres. Pour certains fidèles, Matangi est la déesse qui réussit à chasser la malchance, l'impureté de la vie. (fr)

Ela é considerada como a forma tântrica de Sarasvati, a deusa da música e da aprendizagem. Assim como Sarasvati, Matangi rege o discurso, a música, o conhecimento e as artes.

Matangi é comumente associada à poluição, ao sinistro e à periferia da sociedade Hindu, qual é incorporada na sua forma mais popular, conhecida como Ucchishta-Chandalini ou Ucchishta-Matangini. Ela é descrita como uma Dalit, Candala (casta dos "intocáveis") e a ela são oferecidos restos de comida ou comida parcialmente consumida com as mãos sujas (sem lavar) ou após a alimentação, ambas condições consideradas impuras no Hinduísmo clássico. Matangi normalmente é representada em tons esverdeados, como a esmeralda. Enquanto Ucchishta-Matangini aparece com cordões, espada, aguilhão e tacape, sua outra forma Raja-Matangi, toca a vina e é desenhada muitas vezes com um papagaio. (pt)
