Devi
before entering the war theatre, meditated for some time on
Malayaparvatha. At this juncture Narada entered the scene. He went
to Mahishasura and advised him to marry that captivating beauty,
doing meditation on the Malayaparvatha. The lustful demon sent his
assistants to bring her to his court. His premier prahasu tried to
stop that disastrous step, saying that she was the spouse of Lord
Maheswar and any ,attempt would rebound on them, and end in
annihilation. Brushing him side, he sent another
with sufficient army. But were repelled b Devi. Deciding to wrest
that tantalizing heavenly fruit, he himself went, but was mesmerized
by her charms. He then begged her to accept him as her Lord.
Bursting into laughter, she dashed against him well armed. The
battle went on. Will the asurasakti stand against Devi, invested
with the special amsas of the Trio? Mahishasura bit the dust - the
bitter bitten soon found himself sunk in his own blood. Awaiting
this auspicious movement, the afflicted -gods, sages, innocent along
with Bhumata approaching praised her in tones rapturous, voice
hilarious, while feet decoying, hands clapping.
