Sweetness of Gita Telugu. I have been very pleased with all the items. Reading Durga Saptashati is good for us. O Prince, while the devas were thus engaged in praises and other acts of adoration , Parvathi came there to bathe in the waters of the Ganga. After she had issued forth, Parvati became dark and was called Kalika and stationed on mount Himalaya. Then, Canda, and Munda, two servants of Sumbha and Nisumbha, saw that Ambika Kausiki bearing a surpassingly charming form.

Ascertain who that Goddess is and take possession of her, O Lord of the asuras! You should see her. It has been brought here from Brahma to whom it originally belonged. And the ocean gave a garland named Kinjalkini made of unfading lotus flowers. Fire also gave you two garments which are purified by fire. Why this beautiful lady-jewel is not seized by you? On hearing these words of Chanda and Munda, Sumbha sent the great asura Sugriva as messenger to the Devi. He went there where the Devi was staying in a very beautiful spot on the mountain and spoke to her in fine and sweet words.

Sent by him as messenger, I have come here to your presence. I enjoy all their hares in sacrifices separately. The devas themselves offered to me with salutations that gem of horses named Uccaisravas which arose at the churning of milk-ocean.

You who are such, come to me, since we are the enjoyers of the best objects. Think over this in your mind, and become my wife. Thus told, Durga the adorable and auspicious, by whom this universe is supported, then became serene and said.

You have spoken truth; nothing false has been uttered by you in this matter. Sumbha is indeed the sovereign of the three worlds an likewise is also Nisumbha.

Hear what promise I had made already out of foolishness. Vanquishing me here, let him soon take my hand in marriage. Why delay? Talk not so before me. Which man in the three worlds will stand before Sumbha and Nisumbha? Why mention you, O Devi, a single woman? Let it not be that you go to them with your dignity lost be being dragged by your hair. What can I do since there stands my ill-considered vow taken long ago? The messenger, filled with indignation on hearing the words the Devi, returned and related them in detail to the king of the daityas.

Then the asura Dhuralocana, commanded thus by Sumbha, went forth quickly, accompanied by sixty thousand asuras. If you thus take me by force, then what can I do to you? Then the great army of asuras became enraged and showered on Ambika sharp arrows, javelins, and axes. Then the lion, vehicle of the Devi, shaking its mane in anger, and making the most terrific roar, fell on the army of the asuras. Some asuras, it slaughtered with a blow of its fore paw, others with its mouth, and other great asuras, by treading over with its hind legs.

The lion, with its claws, tore out the hearts of some and severed heads with a blow of the paw. And it severed arms and heads from others, and shaking its mane drank the blood from the hearts of others. In a moment all that army was destroyed by that high-spirited and exceedingly enraged lion who bore the Devi. But if you have any doubt about doing that, then let the asuras strike her in the fight with all their weapons.

Then at his command the asuras, fully armed, and with Chanda and Munda at their head, marched in fourfold array. They saw the Devi, smiling gently, seated upon the lion on a huge golden peak of the great mountain. On seeing her, some of them excited themselves and made an effort to capture her, and others approached her, with their bows bent and swords drawn.

Thereupon Ambika became terribly angry with those foes, and in her anger her countenance then became dark as ink. Out from the surface of her forehead, fierce with frown, issued suddenly Kali of terrible countenance, armed with a sword and noose. Snatching the elephants with one hand she flung them into her mouth together with their rear men and drivers and their warrior-riders and bells. Taking likewise into her mouth the cavalry with the horses, and chariot with its driver, she ground them most frightfully with her teeth.

She seized one by the hair and another by the neck; one she crushed by the weight of the foot, and another of her body.

And she caught with her mouth the weapons and the great arms shot by those asuras and crunched them up with her teeth in her fury. She destroyed all that host of mighty and evil-natured asuras, devoured some and battered others. Some were killed with her word, some were beaten with her skull-topped staff, and other asuras met their death being ground with the edge of her teeth. On seeing all the hosts of asuras laid low in a moment, Chanda rushed against that Kali, who was exceedingly terrible.

The great asura Chanda with very terrible showers of arrows, and Munda with discuses hurled in thousands covered that terrible-eyed Devi. Those numerous discuses, disappearing into her mouth, looked like numerous solar orbs disappearing into the midst of a cloud.

Thereat Kali, who was roaring frightfully, whose fearful teeth were gleaming within her dreadful mouth, laughed terribly with exceeding fury. Then the Devi, mounting upon her great lion, rushed at Chanda, and seizing him by his hair, severed his head with her sword. Seeing Chanda laid low, Munda also rushed at her. She felled him also the ground, striking him with her sword in her fury.

Seeing the most valiant Chanda and Munda laid low, the remaining army there became panicky and fled in all directions. And Kali, holding the heads of Chanda and Munda in her hands, approached Chandika and said, her words mingled with very loud laughter. After the daitya Chanda was slain and Munda was laid low, and many of the battalions were destroyed, the lord of the asuras, powerful Sumbha, with mid overcome by anger, commanded then the mobilization of all the daitya hosts: 4.

After issuing these orders, Sumbha, the lord of the asuras and a ferocious ruler, went forth, attended by many thousands of big forces. Seeing that most terrible army coming, Chandika filled into space between the earth and the sky with the twang of her bow-string. Thereon her lion made an exceedingly loud roar, O King, and Ambika magnified those roars with the clanging of the bell. Kali, expanding her mouth wide and filling the quarters with the sound hum overwhelmed the noises of her bow-string, lion and bell by her terrific roars.

On hearing that roar the enraged asura battalions surrounded the lion, the Devi Chandika and Kali on all the four sides. At this moment, O King, in order to annihilate the enemies of devas and for the well-being of the supreme devas, there issued forth, endowed with exceeding vigour and strength, Shaktis from the bodies of Brahma, Shiva, Guha, Vishnu and Indra, and with the form of those devas went to Chandika.

Whatever was the form of each deva, whatever his ornaments and vehicle, in that very form his Shakti advanced to fight with the asuras. She is called Brahmani. Maheshvari arrived, seated on a bull, holding a fine trident, wearing bracelets of great snakes and adorned with a digit of the moon.

Ambika Kaumari, in the form of Guha, holding a spear in hand riding on a fine peacock, advanced to attack the asuras. Likewise the Shakti of Vishnu came, seated upon Garuda, holding conch, club, bow and sword in hand. The Shakti of Hari, who assumed the incomparable form of a sacrificial boar, she also advanced there in a boar-like form. Narasmihi arrived there, assuming a body like that of a Narasmiha, bringing down the constellations by the toss of her mane.

Likewise the thousand-eyed Aindri, holding a thunderbolt in hand and riding on the lord of elephants arrive just like Sakra Indra.

Thereupon from the body of Devi issued forth the Shakti of Chandika, most terrific, exceedingly fierce and yelling like a hundred jackals. You go to the nether world, if you wish to live. Let my jackals be satiated with your flesh. Those great asuras, on their part, hearing the words of the Devi communicated by Shiva, were filled with indignation and went where Katyayani stood.

Then in the very beginning, the enraged foes of the devas poured in front on the Devi showers of arrows, javelins and spears. And lightly, with the huge arrows shot from her full-drawn bow, she clove those arrows, spears, darts and axes hurled by them. Then, in front of him Sumbha , stalked Kali, piercing the enemies to pieces with her spear and crushing them with her skull-topped staff. And Brahmani, wherever she moved, made the enemies bereft of valour and prowess by sprinkling on them the water from her Kamandalu.

The very wrathful Maheshvari slew the daityas with her trident, and Vaisnavi, with her discus and Kaumari, with her javelin. Torn to pieces by the thunderbolt which come down upon them, hurled by Aindri, daityas and danavas fell on the earth in hundreds, streams of blood flowing out of them.

Shattered by the boar-formed goddess Varahi with blows of her snout, wounded in their chests by the point of her tusk and torn by her discus, the asuras fell down. Narasmihi, filling all the quarters and the sky with her roars, roamed about in the battle, devouring other great asuras torn by her claws.

Demoralised by the violent laughter of Shivaduti, the asuras fell down on the earth; she then devoured them who had fallen down. Seeing the enraged band of Matrs crushing the great asuras thus by various means, the troops of the enemies of devas took to their heels. Seeing the asuras harassed by the band of Matrs and fleeing, the great asura Raktabija strode forward to fight in wrath. Whenever from his body there fell to the ground a drop of blood, at that moment rose up from the earth asura of his stature.

Blood flowed quickly and profusely from him who was wounded by the thunderbolt. From the blood rose up fresh combatants of his form and valour. As many drops of blood fell from his body, so may persons came into being, with his courage, strength and valour. And those persons also sprung up from his blood fought there with the Matrs in a more dreadful manner hurling the very formidable weapons. And again when his head was wounded by the fall of her thunder-bolt, his blood flowed and therefrom were born persons in thousands.

Vaisnavi struck him with her discus in the battle, Aindri beat that lord of asuras with her club. The world was pervaded by thousands of great asuras who were of his stature and who rose up from the blood that flowed from him when cloven by the discus of Vaisnavi.

Kaumari struck the great asura Raktabija with her spear, Varahi with her sword, and Mahesvari with her trident.

And Raktabija, that great asura also, filled with wrath, struck everyone of the Matrs severally with his club. From the stream of blood which fell on the earth from him when he received multiple wounds by the spears, darts and other weapons, hundreds of asuras came into being. And those asuras that were born from the blood of Raktabija pervaded the whole world; the devas got intensely alarmed at this. So shall this daitya, with his blood emptied, perish.

Then and there he struck Chandika with his club. The blow of his club caused her not even the slightest pain. And from his stricken body wherever blood flowed copiously, there Chamunda swallowed it with her mouth.

The Devi Kausiki smote Raktabija with her dart, thunderbolt, arrows, swords, and spears, when Chamunda went on drinking his book. Stricken with a multitude of weapons and bloodless, the great asura Raktabija fell on the ground, O King.

Thereupon the devas attained great joy, O King. The band of Matrs who sprang from them dance, being intoxicated with blood. After Raktabija was slain and other asuras were killed in the fight, the asura Sumbha and Nisumbha gave way to unbounded wrath. Enraged on seeing his great army slaughtered, Nisumbha then rushed forward with the chief forces of the asuras. In front of him behind him and on both sides of him, great asuras, enraged and biting their lips, advanced to slay the Devi.

Sumbha also, mighty in valour, went forward, surrounded, with his own troops to slay Chandika in this rage, after fighting with the Matrs. Then commenced severe combat between the Devi on one side and on the other, Sumbha and Nisumbha who, like two thunder-clouds, rained a most tempestuous shower of arrows on her.

Chandika with numerous arrows quickly split the arrows shot by the two asuras and smote the two lords of asuras on their limbs with her mass of weapons. Nisumbha, grasping a sharp sword and a shining shield, struck the lion, the great carrier of the Devi on the head. When his shield was slit and his sword too broken, the asura hurled his spear; and that missile also, as it advanced towards her, was split into two by her discus.

Then the danava Nisumbha, swelling with wrath, seized a dart; and that also, as it came, the Devi powdered with a blow of her fist. Then brandishing his club, he flung it against Chandika; cleft by the trident of the Devi, it also turned to ashes.

Then the Devi assailed the heroic danava advancing with battle-axe in hand, and laid him low on the ground. When his brother Nisumbha of terrific prowess fell to the ground, Sumbha got infuriated in the extreme, and strode forward to slay Ambika.

Standing in his chariot and grasping excellent weapons in his long and incomparable eight arms, he shone by pervading the entire sky. Seeing him approaching, the Devi blew her conch, and made a twang of her bow-string, which was unbearable in the extreme. And the Devi filled all directions with the ringing of her bell, which destroys the strength of all the daitya hosts.

The lion filled the heaven, the earth and the ten quarters of the sky with loud roars, which made the elephants give up their violent rut. Then Kali, springing upwards in the sky, came down and struck the earth with both her hands; by its noise all the previous sounds were drowned.

Sivaduti made a loud ominous peal of laughter, the asuras were frightened by those sounds, and Sumbha flew into an utmost rage. The spear, flaming most terribly and shining like a mass of fire, which Sumbha approaching hurled was, as it was coming along, put out by a great firebrand from the Devi.

The Devi split the arrows shot by Sumbha, and Sumbha also split the arrows discharged by her, each with her and his sharp arrows in hundreds and thousands. Then Chandika became angry and smote him with a trident. Wounded therewith, he fainted and fell to the ground. Then Nisumbha, regaining consciousness seized his bow and struck with arrows the Devi and Kali and the lion And the danuja-lord, the son of Diti, putting forth a myriad arms, covered Chandika with myriad discuses.

Then Bhagavati Durga, the destroyer of difficulties and afflictions, became angry and split those discuses and those arrows with her own arrows.

Thereupon Nisumbha, surrounded by the daitya host, swiftly seizing his club, rushed at Chandika to sly her. As he was just rushing at her, Chandika colve his club with her sharp-edged sword; and her took hold of a dart. As Nisumbha, the afflictor of the devas, was advancing with the dart in hand, Chandika pierced him in the heart with a swiftly hurled dart.

Then the Devi, laughing aloud, severed the head of him, who issued forth, with her sword. Thereupon he fell to the ground. The lion then devoured those asuras whose necks he had crushed with his fierce teeth, and Kali and Sivaduti devoured others.

Some great asuras perished, being pierced through by the spear if Kaumari. Others were repulsed by sprinkling of the water purified by the incantation of Brahmani. Others fell, pierced by a trident wielded by Mahesvari; some were powdered on the ground by the blows from the snout of Varahi. Some danavas were cut to pieces by the discus of Vaisnavi, and others again by the thunderbolt discharged from the palm of Aindri.

Some asuras perished themselves , some fled from the great battle, and others were devoured by Kali, Sivaduti and the lion. Seeing his brother Nisumbha slain, who was dear to him as his life, and his army being slaughter, Sumbha angrily said. Though you are exceedingly haughty, you, resorting to the strength of others, fight.

Who else is there besides me? See, O vile one, these Goddesses, who are but my own powers, entering into my own self! Then all those, Brahmani and the rest, were absorbed in the body of the Devi. Ambika alone then remained. The Devi said: Be steadfast in combat. Then began a dreadful battle between them both, the Devi and Sumbha, while all the devas and asuras looked on. With showers of arrows, with sharp weapons and frightful missiles, both engaged again in a combat that frightened all the worlds.

Then the lord of daityas broke the divine missiles, which Ambika discharged in hundreds, with weapons that repulsed them. With fierce shout of hum and the like, the Paramesvari playfully broke the excellent missiles that he discharged. Then the asura covered the Devi with hundreds of arrows, and the Devi in wrath split his bow with her arrows.

And when the bow was split the lord of the daityas took up his spear. With a discus, the Devi split that spear also in this hand. Next the supreme monarch of the daityas, taking his sword bright like the sun and shining shield bearing the images of a hundred moons, rushed at the Devi at that moment. Just as he was rushing forward, Chandika split his sword with sharp arrows shot from her bow, as also his shield as bright as the solar rays. With his steeds slain, with his bow broken, without a charioteer, the daitya then grasped his terrible mace, being ready to kill Ambika.

With sharp arrows, she split the mace of Sumbha, who was rushing at her. Even then, raising his fist, he rushed swiftly at her.

The daitya-king brought his fist down on the heart of the Devi, and the Devi also with her palm smote him on his chest. The daitya-king, wounded by the blow of her palm fell on the earth, but immediately he rose up again.
