Season 2 Episode 4: The Killing of Many Asuras by Many Goddesses
In today's episode we look at the third part of Devi Mahatmyam - the killing of Shumba and Nishumba, and what happened to King Suratha and the merchant Samadhi after they heard the entire Devi Mahatmyam from Sage Medhas. Watch this episode to learn about the symbolism behind Shumba and Nishumba... And also the challenge that Hrishi has accepted for the next episode :) References I took the story of Shumba and Nishumba from this book: 1) Encountering the Goddess: Translation of the Devi-Mahatmya and a Study of Its Interpretation by Thomas Coburn The symbolism behind Shumba and Nishumba comes from this really nice link: 2) http://indiafacts.org/understanding-navaratri-vedanta/
