Whose doubt is this? And what exactly in the mind of questioner?where from she is coming and where she is expected to go? Is it to the same place from where she came? unless such queries are answered, no point in discussing such baseless questions. Please try to understand and come out of such illusions.She is all pervading and ever existing.

according to hindu mythology goddess durga vahan is lion.we as telugu people know that the goddess durga vahan is lion only and she sat on that vahan and killed mahishasura.

but i have seen about her as she has vahans like elephant,horse etc .see about below matter in the link http://www.indiadivine.org/audarya/…:

Durga's mode of journey to the earth is detailed in scriptures. The modes, an elephant, a horse, palanquin, boat all signify luck or omen which influence the life on earth. The elephant signifies prosperity and good harvest while journey on a horse back indicates drought, a palanquin spells wide spread epidemic and the boat suggests flood and misery. The worship of Devi Durga however owes its origin to Sree Rama. He hastily worships Durga, the goddess of 'Shakti', just before he sets for Lanka to rescue Sita from Ravana. According to Puranas, King Suratha, used to worship the goddess Durga in spring. Thus Durga Puja was also known as Basanti Puja. But Rama prepones the Puja and worships the Devi in autumn and that is why it is known as 'Akal Bodhon' or untimely worship. Over the years, this Akal Bodhon has become the tradition among Bengalis (Bengalis) and in Bengal.

my bengali friend told, this year Goddess DURGA is coming on "elephant" which indicative of richest production of agricultural product.
