Durga Saptashati Chapter 3 · Sage Markandeya (Markandeya Purana) · c. 400–600 CE (Markandeya Purana)
After the Goddess had destroyed Mahishasura's vast armies and his generals, Mahishasura himself, repeatedly changing his shape between buffalo, lion, man and elephant, attacked her. The Devi, intoxicated with the battle, drank the divine madhu, hurled her defiant challenge, and finally pinned him underfoot and severed his head as he tried to escape his buffalo form, ending the hundred-year tyranny of the asuras.
✦ ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରରେ କୁହାଯାଇଥିବା ପରି
Devotees recount that recalling this scene — the Goddess crushing the shape-shifting demon underfoot — has emboldened the weak and fearful to stand firm against bullies and oppressors, as if borrowing Durga's own conquering valour in their hour of need.

ଅର୍ଥ:देवी बोलीं — 'अरे मूढ़! क्षण भर गरज ले, गरज ले, जब तक मैं यह मधु पी रही हूँ। जब मैं तुझे यहीं मार डालूँगी, तब शीघ्र ही देवता गरजेंगे।' ऋषि बोले — ऐसा कहकर देवी ने उछलकर उस महान् असुर पर चढ़कर, अपने चरण से उसका कण्ठ दबाकर उसे त्रिशूल से मारा। तब देवी के चरण से दबा हुआ वह अपने (भैंसे के) मुख से आधा ही बाहर निकल पाया था कि देवी के पराक्रम से पूरी तरह घिर गया। इस प्रकार आधा ही निकला हुआ, युद्ध करता वह महान् असुर देवी द्वारा महाखड्ग से सिर काटकर गिरा दिया गया।
