A text in praise of the valour of the Divine Mother. This edition is specially designed for chanting. The Devi Mahatmyam text is in Sanskrit with running English translation, so that either may be read without a break. Brief explanatory footnotes are added.
This is the great lesson that we are here to learn through myriads of births and heavens and hells -- that there is nothing to be asked for, desired for, beyond one's spiritual Self (atman).
-Swami Vivekananda
