DEVI BHAGAVATAM

DEVI BHAGAVATAM

The Devi Bhagavatam, composed in Bengal in the sixth century CE, is replete with legends from a pre-Vedic religion of the Goddess.<br />The Devi Bhagavatam is for the Shakta what the Bhagavata Purana is for the Vaishnava: his or her most sacred book.<br />The Shaktas worship Shakti, the Eternal Feminine, in all her forms: Kali, Saraswati, Lakshmi, Parvati, Sati, Sita, Radha, and so many more.<br />This book is an abridged literary rendering of the Devi Bhagavatam, written with the fervor and abandon of the original, for the contemporary reader.
