The Devî said :—"Vîrabhadra! I am your mother and you need not entertain any doubt. I am the beloved of Śiva and the daughter of Himâchala Son! do not be deluded by my appearance Brahmâ, becoming pleased with My asceticism, has granted me this fair complexion. Son! without knowing the full details of that demon, I have cursed you which cannot be now obviated but I assure you that you will soon come back after being liberated from its effects in thy man birth."—6-9.
