Thiên Y A Na

Thiên Y A Na (chữ Hán: 天依阿那) is a Vietnamese goddess.

She is worshipped in the Vietnamese folk religion and Đạo Mẫu, the mother goddess beliefs.

The Cham people of Vietnam had been much influenced by India, and it is believed that Pô Nagar is represented with the characteristics of Bhagavati Uma.

According to the myth of Pô Nagar, she was born from the clouds of the sky and the foam of the sea.

Her physical form was manifest in a piece of eaglewood floating on the waves of the ocean.

Since the Việt were Confucian, they altered several aspects of Pô Nagar when incorporating her into their culture.

Her worshipers often go on pilgrimages to Thiên Y A Na's temples and shrines, where they conduct rituals in her honour.
