He said —“You should also foster and guard the universe with My command, as the men and animals look after their off spring, and as the Devas protect the creation so do ye also and work in every way like the Devas Let the Devas and men worship the Deva Tripurārī Never cause pain to the devotees of Śiva, and you should also protect those who contemplate on Me Those who will offer you sacrifices every day, you should give them all their desired objects You should also guard those who recite the praises uttered by Me and you should protect My seat Lord Śiva will give you His Raudrā Devī You all would occupy the position of the highest Devī and protect Her also You should guard the universe in conjunction with Her The Divine Mothers created by Me will remain with Me, and will attain the oblations made by the devotees along with Me Those who will adore you separately, you should give them all their desires. Those desirous of progeny will get children no doubt, if they worship Śuṣkadevī —73-81
