Rules for durgA saptashatI are said to be derived from this work.

Some libraries may have this book. I will try to do a search.

Namasthe.

 

She is the Supreme Light --- a sum toto of Tejas of all devas as defined in the

second Chapter of DM. The KAlika purana Says that She is the abhimana Devatha of

Oddyana peeta. She is as KAAmakya at Assam. ( Yoni peetam ). What an average

human being can conceive is the speed and the power of light.

 

As She is bearing and also as she is engulfing the whole of cosmos --- she is

Katyayani. ( Ka Brahman, shiras and stone ).

 

It is coommon to see Ambaa temples known by the deity -- KAAthayaE in most of

the villages in Tamil Nadu. Maha Swamy says the name of Katyayani has

transformed this way,

 

In the Dhanur month corresponding to mid december, the scriptures say that the

Gopies worshipped Katyayani to get the Lord Krishna as their spouse.

 

In the Kavacha of the DM , She is mentioned as the sixth form of Durga ji. more

information can be had from Chandi Navashari Vidya.

I confess that I did not understand the sanskrit commentary

completely here. Feel free to correct. Hopefully my understanding isnt

a complete blunder.

 

Bsa.
