As Divona (Deva, Devona), she was a Pan Celtic River Goddess, who was revered in many diverse locales including Britain, Bordeaux, Gaul, and Ireland. A spiritual warrior and shamanic healer, Divona is the protectress of the healing arts, hot springs, and water courses. Celtic Gallic inscriptions also depict her as a fertility and vegetation goddess. As Devi, she was a Hindu Epic goddess mentioned in the Puranas. She was the personification of a proactively feminine "Mother Nature Goddess". She would often respond to the earnest entreaties and prayerful requests of worthy supplicants.
The symbols associated with
the Devi included the conch shell, prayer wheel, and trident.
The Sacred Site focal point of Hierarch Divona Devi and the Fifth Ray of Rainbow Healing is the Newton Lake Park and Knights Park, which are located outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in southern New Jersey, U.S.A. Encompassing more than one hundred three acres, Newton Lake Park is managed by the Camden County Parks and Recreation Department. The park is bounded by Cuthbert Boulevard and the White Horse Pike and runs through Collingswood, Haddon Township, and Oaklyn. Within Newton Lake Park there are three picnic areas, two playgrounds, bike paths, fishing piers, and a Matrimony Garden. Encompassing more than sixty acres, Knights Park is a public park across from Collingswood High School in the Borough of Collingswood. The large green space park has numerous ponds, fountains, trees, benches, and recreational team sports areas. Oakland was once a dense forest inhabited by the Lenni-Lenape Native American Indians. In 1681, a group of Quakers from Wickloe, Ireland sailed up the Delaware River and decided to form a settlement on Newton Creek. So William Bates, the Quaker leader purchased two hundred fifty acres located on the south side of Newton Creek from the Lenni-Lenape. The Quaker settlement was called Newton Colony. As the colony grew more and more of the land was cleared for farming. Eventually, the farms along Newton Creek were divided into housing lots for development and the colony was renamed "Oakland the Beautiful". Then in 1894 the name of the town was changed to Oaklyn, to avoid confusion with another Oakland in Northern New Jersey. Over the course of time two highways through the area were laid out along old Native America Indian trials. The White Horse Pike, which had been known as "Long-a-Coming Trail", began at Camden went through Berlin and the ended at Atlantic City The Black Horse Pike began at the Delaware River and ended at Egg Harbor.
