Sri Durga Stotram (Shiva Rahasye)

This short yet profound stotram from the Shiva Rahasya text praises Goddess Durga as the supreme, peaceful and auspicious Divine Mother. Lord Shiva describes her as the embodiment of purity, auspiciousness, universal motherhood and divine power.

Durga is hailed as Shivā, the beloved of Brahma, the origin of the worlds and the force that leads all beings. She is mangala—the giver of auspiciousness, the remover of sorrows, and the highest transcendental energy.

She is the essence of all deities, the destroyer of diseases and fears, the one worshipped by Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. She is Vindhyavasini, dwelling in the sacred peaks, the mother of yogis and the fountain of yogic power.

As the Mother of Ishana (Shiva), she rescues beings from the ocean of worldly existence, helping them attain liberation. Whoever recites or listens to this hymn becomes free from sins and attains joy along with the grace of Goddess Durga.
