About this listen

On the 5 day of Navaratri 8 Chapter of Devī Māhātmya is traditionally recalled and contemplated upon. In this Chapter the Divine Mother fights with demon Raktabija, representing our never-ending desires. During the battle, the Supreme Mother expands Herself into 8 forms known as eight Matrikas or eight Yoginis. Each of those 8 mothers helps us to overcome one of the 8 negative qualities fuelling our mind’s negative patterns. They also represent the 8 arms of Goddess Mahasarasvati.
