Adhyaya 91 — The Gods’ Hymn to Kātyāyanī and the Goddess’ Prophecy of Future Manifestations
भूयश्च शतवार्षिक्यामनावृष्ट्यामनम्भसि ।
मुनिभिः संस्तुता भूमौ संभविश्याम्ययोनिजा ॥
bhūyaś ca śatavārṣikyām anāvṛṣṭyām anambhasi | munibhiḥ saṃstutā bhūmau saṃbhaviṣyāmy ayonijā ||
อีกครั้งหนึ่ง เมื่อเกิดทุพภิกขภัยยาวนานร้อยปี—เมื่อไร้ฝนและไร้น้ำ—เราผู้ได้รับการสรรเสริญจากฤๅษีทั้งหลาย จะอุบัติบนแผ่นดินเป็น ‘อโยนิจา’ คือ “ผู้มิได้เกิดจากครรภ์”

In extreme scarcity, Devī is portrayed as the restoring principle of life (water/food). Ethically, it underlines communal survival through sacred remembrance and the protection of dharma embodied by sages and right conduct.
This is narrative-carita with a purāṇic ‘future-occurrence’ motif; it is not a manvantara list but a prophetic extension of Devī’s līlā within the carita stream.
A ‘hundred-year drought’ can read as a symbol of prolonged inner aridity (loss of rasa). Devī’s ayonijā manifestation indicates awakening that is not produced by ordinary causality but by grace responding to sustained invocation.
