Mahishasura Mardini Stotram1. Oh, daughter of the mountain,who makes the whole world happy,who makes all the universe rejoice,who is praised by Nandin,who resides on the peaks of the great Vindhya Mountains,with radiance reaching far and wide,who is praised by those desirous of victory,Oh Goddess, wife to the blue-necked Shiva,mother to many families,who does many good deeds,Victory to You, Oh slayer of the buffalo demon Mahisasura!Victory to You, daughter of the Himalayas, who has beautifully plaited hair! Oh, it is You,who bestows boons upon the Gods,who defeats the undisciplined,who tolerates the ignorant,who is ever rejoicing,who looks after the three worlds,who pleases Shankara,who removes the effect of sins,who inhabits the holy sound of AUM,who is furious with the progeny of the demons Danu and Diti,who destroys those drunk on the evil intoxicant of pride,who is the daughter of the ocean!Victory to You, Oh slayer of the buffalo demon Mahisasura!Victory to You, daughter of the Himalayas, who has beautifully plaited hair! Salutations to you, Divine Mother,who is following the rhythm of the great battle, in which celestial dancers are dancing the rhythm of ta-tha-theyi, ta-theyi and are expressing the sentiment of battle with their dramatic acting,in which the music is creating a tense atmosphere with musical beats like ku-kutha, ga-da-dha,and in which a steady deep sound of dhu-dhu-kuta, dhu-kuta, dhim-dhimi is played in the background on the mridangam (a musical instrument)Victory to You, Oh slayer of the buffalo demon Mahisasura!Victory to You, daughter of the Himalayas, who has beautifully plaited hair! Oh Goddess of the good minded people,who is greatly gracious to such people,and who appears very pretty to them,Oh Goddess with the moon like face,who is as cool as the moon to those in the dark,Oh Goddess,whose face shines in the moon light,who attracts all good-hearted souls like a flower attracts the bees,who attracts her lord like a flower attracks the bees.Victory to You, Oh slayer of the buffalo demon Mahisasura!Victory to You, daughter of the Himalayas, who has beautifully plaited hair! The Mahishasura Mardini Stotram is based on the Devi Mahatmya. Because of its very poetic nature and the repetition of words in the same stanza, with different nuances, this stotram is difficult to translate.

More information about the Devi MahatmyaThe Devi Mahatmya ( Sanskrit: देवीमाहात्म्यम् or “Glory of the Goddess” ), is a Hindu religious text describing the victory of Goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura and is one of the most important texts for the worshipers of Devi, the Goddess. It is part of the Markandeya Purana (chapters 78-90), and was composed in Sanskrit around 400-500 CE. The text contains 700 ( saptashata – ' seven hundred' ) verses, arranged into 13 chapters. The storyNarrated by the sage Rishi Sumedhas, who recites the hymn to the glory of the Goddess, the Devi Mahatmya is about a king who lost his kingdom and a merchant who was chased from his home. Both had come to the rishi in the forest and asked for spiritual help from their misery. The rishi asked them to worship the goddess and to repent. Then he begins with the following words:“She is eternal, embodied as the universe.
Everything is permeated by her. Still, she incarnates in many forms.
Listen to the story! 'The story then tells of the various manifestations of Durga and her battle against the evil represented by several Asuras, the opponents of the celestial devas. Just as in the Devi Bhagavata, it tells in mythological form the story of Durga’s fight against the Buffalo Demon Mahishasura, who is the embodiment of ignorance and spiritual darkness. Durga kills the Buffalo-Demon in battle along with his armyAt the urgent request of the celestial devas, she appeared; they were being terrorized by the demon Mahishasura. After hard asceticism, meditation and prayer, Brahma had granted the demon a wish, that he could only die by the hand of a woman. As he did not believe that any woman could have such an ability, his lust for power grew and eventually, in his boundless arrogance, made himself the ruler of heaven. All should worship him.Shiva and Vishnu became angry when they heard of his activities, and a bright light arose from each of their faces.
These joined with the lights from the bodies of the other celestial beings, becoming one single unified light and finally taking the form of a beautiful woman. Each of the celestial devas gave her a weapon, a replica of their own weapon: Shiva gave his trident, and Vishnu his discus. From Surya, the sun, she received the brilliant rays that were shining from every pore of her skin; Kala, the time, gave a sword; the Himalayas gave a magnificent lion as a mount. Finally, the goddess went with “loud roaring laughter” into battle. The mountains shook, the universe trembled and the seas burst their banks. The demon changed his form constantly during the fight; buffalo, lion, and elephant.

Finally she defeated him in his buffalo form.However, after the victory, more asuras attacked the celestials and again they begged the goddess for help. During the fight, the terrible black Kali manifested herself from her forehead. A group of goddesses, the 'seven mothers ' appeared out of Durga and fought for her. The enemies accused her of fighting unfairly, so she took all emanations back and said, laughing loudly, that everyone was just a form of her.In addition to the popular narratives the work contains important spiritual statements, which are hidden in complex layers of meaning.
