Durga Saptashati — Chapter 5, Verse 74–76

Devi's Dialogue with the Messenger

या देवी सर्वभूतेषु भ्रान्तिरूपेण संस्थिता । नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः ॥ ७४-७६ ॥

yā devī sarvabhūteṣhu bhrāntirūpeṇa saṁsthitā namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ

Translation

To the Devi who dwells in all beings as delusion: salutation to her, salutation to her, salutation to her, salutation again and again.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

जो देवी सब प्राणियों में भ्रांति रूप से स्थित हैं, उनको नमस्कार, उनको नमस्कार, उनको नमस्कार, बार-बार नमस्कार।

Commentary

The list ends, surprisingly, with bhranti, delusion. It brings the hymn full circle to the Mahamaya of chapter 1: even our confusion is her play, and so she alone can lift it.
