Features Durga Saptashati Audio

According to legend, the Devi or the Divine Mother waged ravaging wars against horrifying demons who wrecked the peace of the universe now and then.
At those times, when the devas prayed for an intervention from a higher power, the Goddess Durga appeared and fought for the welfare of the universe.As She fought, She created tales of adventure and awe that continue to thrill Her devotees and invoke deep faith in them.These tales went on to be called the Durga Saptshati in the North which is also known as the Devi Mahatmya in South India and Chandi in West Bengal.
Compiled and penned by Ved Vyasa (the author of the Mahabharata) the Durga Saptashati is found in the Markandeya Purana.
Consisting of 13 chapters, the book recounts the Devi’s tales of valor through 700 stanzas.The Devi defeats and kills through different avatars.
She kills some demons through the tamasic avatar of Goddess Vishnu Maya, some through the rajasic avatar of Goddess Lakshmi and some through the sattvik avatar of Goddess Saraswati.
