What happens in this chapter
Navami, Dashami and the Rishi Ekadashi
On the bright Navami of Ashvina the devotee eats once, worships the Devi and a brahmana, and recites a lakh of japa; this is the Vira Navami. On the bright Navami of Chaitra the Devi is worshipped with damanaka flowers for long life and victory. Whoever eats once on each Dashami for a year and at the end gives ten cows and golden images of the ten directions becomes lord of the universe. On Ekadashi the rishis are worshipped for the good of all: Marichi, Atri, Angiras, Pulastya, Pulaha, Kratu, Pracheta, Vasishtha, Bhrigu and Narada. Begun in Chaitra with garlands of damanaka, it brings wealth and sons, and honour at last in the world of the rishis.
