The Lord thus informed Yogamäyä: “Under the imprisonment of Kansa are Devaké and Vasudeva, and at the present moment My plenary expansion Shesha is within the womb of Devaké. You can arrange the transfer of Shesha from the womb of Devaké to the womb of Rohini. After this arrangement, I am personally going to appear in the womb of Devaké with My full potencies. Then I shall appear as the son of Devaké and Vasudeva. And you shall appear as the daughter of Nanda and Yashoda in Vrindavana.

Question : And Lord blessed Durga/Yogmaya with one benediction (vardan). Can you please tell me what was that benediction(vardan) that he gave to Durga/Yogmaya.

"Since you will appear as My contemporary sister, people within the world will worship you with all kinds of valuable presentations: incense, candles, flowers and offerings of sacrifice. You shall quickly satisfy their desires for sense gratificiation. People who are after materialistic affection will worship you under the different forms of your expansions, which will be named Durga, Bhadrakali, Vijaya, Vaisnavi, Kumuda, Candika, Krsna, Madhavi, Kanyaka, Maya, Narayani, Isani, Sarada and Ambika."



Krsna and Yogamaya appeared as brother and sister--the Supreme Powerful and the supreme power. Although there is no clear distinction between the Powerful and the power, power is always subordinate to the Powerful. Those who are materialistic are worshipers of the power, but those who are transcendentalists are worshipers of the Powerful. Krsna is the Supreme Powerful, and Durga is the supreme power within the material world. Actually people in the Vedic culture worship both the Powerful and the power. There are many hundreds of thousands of temples of Visnu and Devi, and sometimes they are worshiped simultaneously. The worshiper of the power, Durga, or the external energy of Krsna, may achieve all kinds of material success very easily, but anyone who wants to be elevated transcendentally must engage in worshiping the Powerful in Krsna consciousness.

According to Durga Sapatashati



Before every great destruction Mother Goddess will incarnate as Three Ratris (Nights)



Thus before the great destruction of Mahabharat she incarnated as Three Rathris.



They are

a) Kalaratri-Yogamaya-She declares that "time is ready now"

b) Moharatri-Krishna - Who is Mohana

c) Maharatri-Droupadi-Being she is the main reason of the war



Now you please guide me which book is oldest and most authentic?
