Running Translation of Verses in Prayer to DURGA By Sri Swami Sivananda The Devas said, “Salutations to the blessed Mother Devi, the great Devi; salutations again and again to Prakriti, the auspicious; salutations, salutations! Prostrations to the dreadful, the eternal, the pure, the effulgent Devi. Prostrations to Durga, the Essence, the Doer of everything here, the most beautiful among the beautiful, the most dreadful among the dreadful, salutations, salutations! Prostrations to that Devi who is called Vishnumaya among all creatures. Prostrations, prostrations! Again and again salutations to Her who is called among all beings as Consciousness, as Intellect, as Sleep, as Hunger, as Shadow, as Power, as Thirst, as Forbearance, as Caste, as Shyness, as Peace, as Faith, as Beauty, as Prosperity, as Effort, as Memory, as Mercy, as Contentment, as Mother, as Delusion, and who is called among beings as the Sustainer of all, to Her let our salutations be! May that Devi bestow blessings upon us, the helpless Devas!”
