Re: YA DEVI SARVABHUTESHU – DEVI SUKTAM, DEVI STUTI

Dear Narasimhan Sir,
This is a good set of slokas. I thought to give the meanings of these so that all can understand.
In Devi Mahatmiyam,in the 5th Chapter,these verses are found. The Devas are beaten by the
Asuras Shumba and Nishumba and the Asura Sena occupies Indras land. The Devas seek help from Devi. And the messenger from the Asuras approach the Devi to seek her hand in marriage for either Shumba or Nishumba. And the Devi replies that the Asura kings has to defeat her in war to claim her hand. The war begins and all Asuras get killed with final death of Shumba. The devas regain their powers .Thus ends Devi Mahatmiyam.
(Members please Note. The numbers against slokas will not match with those above. Please read the slokas and the meanings as both of them are given below.)

The Deva's salutations to the Devi is expressed in these couplets.
For the benefit of members I reproduce below the translation in English of these verses with kind permission from Sri.P.R.Ramachander who has done yeoman service in translation of quite a lot of Sanskrit slokas. I thank him for his gracious permission.
Please read on,read the Devi Mahatmiyam and get the blessing of Devi.
