Origin & Story

Durga Saptashati Chapter 11 · Maharshi Markandeya (traditionally ascribed) · Puranic period (c. 5th–6th century CE for the Devi Mahatmya)

The Devi Mahatmya (Durga Saptashati or Chandi), part of the Markandeya Purana, recounts the Divine Mother's victories over the demons. In Chapter 11, after Shumbha is slain, the gods sing the Narayani Stuti and bring it to a close with this earnest prayer: that the Goddess protect them always from foes, end the sins and calamities of all the worlds, and be the bestower of boons to the three worlds. Moved, the Goddess offers them whatever boon they wish. With perfect selflessness the gods ask not for themselves but only that she forever quell the world's calamities and destroy the enemies of dharma — and so she promises, foretelling her future descents whenever danger arises.

✦ As told in scripture

Tradition holds that this passage carries the Goddess's own pledge to grant the prayers of her devotees and to descend again and again to protect the world. Those who recite it with faith are said to find their obstacles dissolved, inauspicious omens turned aside, and enemies rendered powerless by the Mother's grace.
