Prarthana for the worship Of Maa Katyayani
चन्द्रहासोज्ज्वलकरा शार्दूलवरवाहना।
कात्यायनी शुभं दद्याद् देवी दानवघातिनी॥
Chandrahasojjvalakara Shardulavaravahana।
Maa Katyayani Shubham Dadyad Devi Danavaghatini॥
“We worship Maa Katyayani, The Slayer Of demons, Who Holds A Shining Scimitar (Chandrahasa) In Her Divine Hand, And Rides A Lion.
O’ Divine Mother, May You Bless.”
The Divine Mother Of the universe Intervenes Whenever the natural order of the universe is disrupted. When demon mahishasura attacked the land, The Divine Mother Emerged As “Maa Katyayani” And Slayed the demon – Being Revered As Maa mahishasuraMardini – The Slayer Of mahishasura.
Maa Katyayani’s Beheading Of mahishasura With Sword Symbolizes winning of viveka (ability to discern between the unreal and The Real) over the ego. The Divine Mother’s Triumph Over mahishasura Imparts Wisdom that it is essential to subdue the ego to attain realization Of The True Self – Which Is Only Possible if you seek and Are Given The Blessings From The Divine Mother.
