महापुराण ७ · Rajasika
Told by the long-lived sage Markandeya, this Purana is treasured because it contains the Devi Mahatmya – the 700 verses also called Durga Saptashati or Chandi Path, recited in every Navratri.
चिरंजीवी ऋषि मार्कण्डेय द्वारा कहे गए इस पुराण में देवी माहात्म्य (दुर्गा सप्तशती / चंडी पाठ) के 700 श्लोक हैं, जिनका पाठ हर नवरात्रि में होता है।
A story from this Purana
Queen Madalasa sang to her infant sons, 'You are pure, you are awakened, you are free of the world's illusion' – and each grew up a seeker of truth rather than a king, until she raised her last son Alarka to rule wisely.
