Dr. Kakati considers that she is the same goddess as Dikkaravasini whom the Kalika Purana describes as the presiding deity of northeastern Assam. The goddess Dikkaravasini has two forms "Tiksna Kanta" and "Lalita-Kanta". Tiksna Kanta is black, potbellied and with one lock of matted hair ("Eka-Jata"). She is also called "Ugra Tara". Her attendants are Bhaga, Subhaga, Chamunda, Karala, Bhisana and Vikala - all dreadful names.
