While staying at Śīkottara, when Rudra was being solicited by Pārvatī, the Ḍakinī Mantra was told (communicated) to the goddess by merciful Śiva. The chaste daughter of the Mountain became deluded as a result of the power of the Mantra. She attacked Bhava (Śiva), ate his flesh and drank his blood. Thereupon, Harasiddhi, the great Durgā, the dispeller of anguish, came out from the body of Rudra. She was a great expert in Mantras.
That goddess with a thousand arms attacked and assailed (Girijā). She liberated Giriśa and scolded and reviled her (?Girijā). Thenceforth, she is glorified in the world as Harasiddhi. Surrounded by sixty crores of goddesses she is worshipped by Suras.
