Chapter 189 - Greatness of Karmamotī
[Sanskrit text for this chapter is available]
Īśvara said:
1-2. To the west thereof, there are the three Pīṭhas not very far. They are the shrines of Caṇḍikā, Karmamoṭī and Yoginī with a crore of attendants. O great goddess, the first Pīṭha is honoured and adored by all the three worlds.
On the ninth lunar day, a devotee should adore the Devīpīṭha and the Yoginī. He shall attain all desires. He shall be a darling unto the heavenly damsels as well.
