CHOTTANIKARA

Achan Nambudiri advised him to run to Chottanikara Devi who alone could rescue him from the ogress. He chanted some mantras invoking the blessings of Bhadrakali. Giving Guptan a wet cloth he advised him to go inside the temple and throw the cloth behind. Accordingly Guptan ran, the yakshi closely following him. On reaching the temple he placed one foot inside and dropped the cloth behind, when all of a sudden the yakshi caught him by the other 189. He fell down entreating the goddess for protection.
