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 destroys the buffalo-demon Mahishasura and his army, Indra and the gods sing the Shakradi Stuti in gratitude. In this verse they extol her as the rescuer of the three worlds whose battlefield slaying of the demons was itself a liberation, and who has dispelled the fear that the frenzied foes had cast over the gods.
✦ As told in scripture
The Devi Mahatmya teaches that those slain by the Goddess in righteous battle are not condemned but uplifted to heaven — so even her wrath is a hidden blessing, and her devotees who recall this verse are freed from the fear of their enemies.
