Dear DeviBhaktas,

"Chaiti Durgotsab" or "Basanti Durga Puja" ( spring worship of devi )

Navdurga that I had drawn , but my scanner is out of order and I have

to go for repairing it.

However, I wold like you to read the following Durga Dhyanmantra that

depicts the gorgeous and queenly portrait of mother goddess,

Dear ones;

I'm posting the translation of Durga Dhyan Mantram which is as

follows:

 

Behold the mother-with rippling cascade of long black hair - a half

moon painted on her forehead.With beautiful three eyes and a

tender,compassionate face; she symbolises endless youthfulness and

is bedecked with all kinds of heavenly jwellery.She puts on a divine

smile.She appears as the slayer of mahisha-the demon.

With ten arms as delicate as lotus-stalks she holds a trident, a

scimiter, a discuss,an arrow, a thunder bolt,a shield,a bow, a noose,

a goad, an axe(or sometimes a bell).At her left foot lies the body of

a slayed buffalo,from which a damon is emerging out and is seen

fighting with the mother.He is severely perforated with the trident.

He is seen tied up with snake-noose and bleeding and vomitting blood

profusely.

At devi's right foot is seen the lion; her carriage.She is worshipped

by the Devas for all round success and fearlessness. She is

surrounded by eight Skaktis,namely-Ugrachandaa,Prachandaa,Chandograa,

Chandanayikaa,Chandaa,Chandabati,Chandarupaa,Atichandikaa.I pray to

Her for the "Chaturbarga" (Dharma,Artha,Kama,Moksha)that is the goal

for every human being.
