Adhyaya 92 — Devi’s Assurance of Protection and the Fruits of Reciting the Devi Mahatmyam
मम प्रभावात्सिंहाद्या दस्यवो वैरिणस्तथा ।
दूरादेव पलायन्ते स्मरतश्चरितं मम ॥
mama prabhāvāt siṃhādyā dasyavo vairiṇas tathā | dūrād eva palāyante smarataś caritaṃ mama ||
என் சக்தியால் சிங்கம் முதலியவை, கொள்ளையர்கள், பகைவர்களும்—என் திருச்சரிதத்தை நினைத்தவுடனே—தூரத்திலிருந்தே ஓடிப்போகின்றனர்.
