The story of Navaratri, the nine days of war between asuras and the Devi is reviewed ion this episode 7B as a symbolism of the process of evolution of the human mind. From the delusion of the world, the mind can be lead slowly towards clarity and the unveiling of Devi within each of us. This process is shown as a fight between the Devi and various Asuras, who are just the different stumbling blocks in our path to realisation. I have isolated each story and explained the symbolism within it. About Argala Stotram: Dedicated to the Mother Goddess Durga, Argala Stotram is a powerful Chant. It praises the Devi Who defeats and destroys all the Asuras and Who, as the Protector, takes care of All Creation. Asuras are not just external forces, they are also representative of our own internal negative tendencies, which need to be defeated if we are to experience the beauty of our inner god.
