Adhyaya 91 — The Gods’ Hymn to Kātyāyanī and the Goddess’ Prophecy of Future Manifestations
रोगानशेषानपहंसि तुष्टा रुष्टा तु कामान्सकलानभीष्टान् ।
त्वामाश्रितानां न विपन्नराणां त्वामाश्रिता ह्याश्रयतां प्रयान्ति ॥
rogānaśeṣānapahaṃsi tuṣṭā ruṣṭā tu kāmān sakalānabhīṣṭān | tvāmāśritānāṃ na vipannarāṇāṃ tvāmāśritā hyāśrayatāṃ prayānti ||
நீ அருள்புரிந்தால் எல்லா நோய்களையும் அகற்றுகிறாய்; கோபித்தால் விரும்பிய நோக்கங்களையெல்லாம் அழிக்கிறாய். உன் சரணடைந்தோர் அழிவுறார்; உண்மையில் உன் சரணாகதர்களே பிறர்க்கும் சரணமாகிறார்கள்.

Devotion is not transactional: the same Devī who grants well-being also disciplines egoic desire. True refuge yields stability, and the devotee’s maturation turns them into support for others.
This is theological instruction embedded in the Devī-ākhyāna; it supports dharma (proper aims and surrender) rather than describing sarga/manvantara/vaṃśa.
‘Tuṣṭā/ruṣṭā’ can be read as inner states: when consciousness aligns with Śakti, ailments dissolve; when it resists dharma, one’s projects collapse—driving the aspirant toward genuine surrender and service.
