Adhyaya 85 — The Gods’ Hymn to the Goddess and the Emergence of Kaushiki; Shumbha Sends His Envoy
या देवी सर्वभूतेषु धृतिरूपेण संस्थिता ।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः ॥
yā devī sarvabhūteṣu dhṛtirūpeṇa saṃsthitā / namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ
Jener Göttin, die in allen Wesen in der Gestalt von Standhaftigkeit und Seelenstärke weilt—Ehrerbietung Ihr, Ehrerbietung Ihr, Ehrerbietung Ihr; immer wieder Ehrerbietung.

Dhṛti—the capacity to hold to vows, duties, and spiritual practice—is honored as Devī’s indwelling power; perseverance becomes a form of worship.
A stuti passage; not directly pancalakṣaṇa, but it provides the inner-ethical foundation by which dharma and purāṇic ideals are sustained.
Dhṛti is the binding śakti that prevents dissipation of mind and prāṇa; in sādhana, it is the power that keeps mantra, meditation, and ethical restraint continuous.
