About this book
The Durga Saptashati, also called the Devi Mahatmya or Chandi, is the seven hundred verse text in praise of Durga. This edition is published by Dakshinamnaya Sri Sharada Peetham, Sringeri, and the seller calls it an authentic edition for chanting.
The text is in Sanskrit only, across 340 pages, in a paperback of 15 x 23 cm. The orange cover shows Durga within a red border. It suits someone who already reads Devanagari and chants the text.
How it is used
The Saptashati is traditionally recited in worship of Durga, and many homes read it during Navratri. This edition is set out for chanting, so it can be used as a reading text at the home shrine.
