As the Sivagnana flowered in her to the fullest extent,
she was fittingly named Gnana Prasunambika. Lord Siva, pleased at the outcome
remained here with her eternally. Kenopanished embodies an elaborate account of
Mother's giving Sivagnaopadesa to Devendra here once and hence she was given the
most honorific title of Jnanaprasunambica by the gods. And also granted the
ardent desire of Durga to change her form the frightful aspect into a
golden-hued, graceful, radiant form, pleasant to look and fit to be propitiated
by all. She is called Kanaka Durga since then. And she is assigned a beautiful
shrine atop the nearby hill. Devotees pray to this goddess with equal fervour
on their visit to this holy kshetra. Lord Siva fails none, nor punishes any sans
cause. That's why he is preferred for easy emancipation.
