Origin & Story

Durga Saptashati Chapter 4 · Sage Markandeya (Rishi Markandeya) · Ancient (c. 400–600 CE, Markandeya Purana)

In Chapter 4 of the Devi Mahatmya, after the Goddess slays Mahishasura, Indra and the gods sing the Shakradi Stuti. Beyond praising her valour, they extol her transcendent nature; in this verse they honour her as the supreme Vidya, the cause of liberation, upon whom self-controlled, fault-free sages meditate to attain moksha.

✦ As told in scripture

Teachers of the Shakta path say that whoever takes this verse as a guiding ideal — controlling the senses, dwelling in truth and worshipping the Devi as Para Vidya — is gradually led by her grace from worldly bondage toward the freedom of moksha.
