द्वितीय मनसादेवी स्तोत्रम्
Dwitheeya Manasa devi Stotram
Translated BY
P.R.Ramachander
Goddess Mansa Devi is
the revered Hindu goddess of snakes and venom. She is worshipped for protection
against snakebites, as well as for fertility, healing, and prosperity. She is
predominantly venerated in East and Northeast India, though her prominence
extends across the country. [1, 2]
Mythology and Lineage
Mansa Devi’s mythology
is rich and varies by region. She is often described as the daughter of the
sage Kashyap and Kadru, the mother of serpents, making her the sister of
Vasuki, the king of Nagas. Other traditions depict her as a mind-born daughter
of Sage Kashyap or as the daughter of Lord Shiva. She is married to Sage
Jaratkaru and is the mother of the sage Astika, who famously saved the Naga
race from destruction.
Goddess Mansa Devi,
the wish-fulfilling form of Shakti, is primarily worshipped at two highly
revered shrines in North India. Both are heavily visited during the Navratri
festivals
