The Devi Bhagavatam Retold

The Devi Bhagavatam, also known as the Devi Bhagavata Purana, is a key text in ancient Indian mythology, vital to the Shakta sect of Hinduism. It exalts the Devi as the world's foundation and equivalent to Brahman, detailing her worship across 318 chapters and 18,000 verses.

"The Devi Bhagavatam Retold" is a condensed version that narrates the Goddess's legends in various forms. Starting with the birth of Ved Vyasa, it recounts his dialogues with his son Suka, Devi's incarnation as Goddess Durga, her battles with demons like Rakthabija and Mahishasura, and the origins of sacred rivers like Ganga. This retelling encapsulates the essence of the Devi's divinity and significance in Indian mythology.
