Durga Saptashati Path is a sacred recitation of 700 verses from the Markandeya Purana, dedicated to Goddess Durga in her supreme forms—Mahakali, Mahalakshmi, and Mahasaraswati. This powerful path is performed to invoke the divine Shakti for protection, inner strength, spiritual growth, and removal of negative energies.

The path is usually done with devotion, purity, and discipline, preferably during Navratri, Ashtami, or any auspicious day. Devotees begin by cleansing the place of worship, lighting a diya, offering flowers, incense, and chanting Ganesh Vandana for obstacle-free recitation. The recitation includes Devi Kavach, Argala Stotra, Keelak, followed by the complete Durga Saptashati chapters, and concludes with Kshama Prarthana and Aarti.

Doing Durga Saptashati Path regularly is believed to bring peace, prosperity, courage, success, and protection from enemies, fear, and hardships. It strengthens faith, balances the mind, and fills life with positivity and divine blessings. When done with sincere devotion and correct pronunciation, this path creates a powerful spiritual aura around the devotee and their surroundings.
