Devi Bagalamukhi is considered to be the eighth Mahavidya out of ten Mahavidyas. She possesses immense power and is worshipped to be victorious over enemies, arguments etc. Worshipping her relieves a person from all sorts of problems. Bagala has been derived from the Sanskrit word, Valga. This means ‘bride’ in Sanskrit. Ma Bagalamukhi has been given this name because of her beauty.

Lord Vishnu started worshipping Lord Shiva who told him that only Goddess Shakti could solve this crisis. Lord Vishnu offered his austerities and prayers near Hardira Sarovar. Goddess Shakti was impressed by his devotion and appeared in front of him through Mahapit Devi’s heart near the Haridra lake of Saurashtra district.
On the night of Chaturdashi, she appeared as Ma Bagalamukhi and blessed Lord Vishnu with a boon. Hence, the destructive storm could finally be stopped. Ma Bagalamukhi is also known as Beer Rati as she is considered to be equivalent to Lord Brahma’s weapons. Devi is also a form of Siddh Vidya. She is even worshipped by Tantriks.
After this, hands should be washed and lamps should be lit. Yellow rice, haridra, yellow flowers and dakshina should be held and prayers should be offered. Following the principles of Brahmacharya is necessary during this puja. For reciting mantras, the puja yantra is made of Chickpeas dal and should be kept on a silver utensil.
