The biggest achievements of the Saptashati are probably its contribution to the arts and iconography of the goddess and its elucidation of the basic tenets of spiritual thought in a narrative form, thus making the tenets accessible and comprehensible to the common devotee. The Goddess Durga as we know her today has been shaped to a large extent by this text. It can be stated with conviction that it drew upon many well-known myths in wide circulation at that time. The Saptashati is probably the oldest extant text in the world devoted entirely to a fiercely independent goddess who is also The Supreme Being - The Ultimate Godhead - The Divine Feminine. The Saptashati (700 verses) has withstood the test of centuries (3) and is as relevant today as it was at the time of its composition, when it was probably an attempt to synthesise and crystallise millennia-old traditions of goddess worship (4) in India. The Durga Saptashati is also popularly referred to as the Chandi Patha or the Chandi. It is among the loftiest of puranic compositions and is a part of the Markandeya Purana (one of the oldest 18 mahapuranas). One of the integral parts of this festival is the recitation of a centuries-old text called the Durga Saptashati or the Devi Mahatamya.
