In the First yuga, also called as Krita Yuga or Satya Yuga, a great storm was formed and destroyed the universe. The Divine gods meditated Mata Durga on the banks of Haridra Sarovar. Pleased with the prayers of the divine gods, Mata Durga appeared in front of them and through her powers she created Bagalamukhi. Bagalamukhi pacified the storm, and thus making the normal functioning of the universe.
Once, Mata Bagalamukhi, killed a powerful demon. Being dying, the demon prayed to the goddess that he has to be worshipped by the people along with her. And the goddess Bagalamukhi granted the boon to him. Bagalamukhi is worshipped for giving peace of mind and for providing all sorts of prosperity in our life. She removes the black magic, and gives more strength, courage and boldness in our life. She will come with us in our daily life and will guide us in all aspects of our life.
By regularly reciting ‘Bagalamukhi stotram’, our anger will be removed. And our enemy will become our friend, a poor person will become a rich person, various health related problems will be recovered and sins committed in previous births will be removed and we will get good results in our life.
Let us worship the great divine mother and be blessed.
