Durga (Shakti / Devi) is one of the most popular goddesses among the
Hindu people. Devi represents strength, morality, power and protection.
Goddess Durga is the divine mother, who protects people from evil forces
of selfishness, jealousy, hatred, anger and ego. Durga Devi Mantras form
the part of prayers offered to the goddess. Mantras for Maa Durga are as
follows:
Na Mantram No Yantram Tadapi Cha
Na Jane Stutimaho Na Chavhanam Dhyanam Tadapi Cha Na Jane Stutikathah I
Na Jane Mudraste Tadapi Cha Na Jane Vilapanam Param Jane Matastvadanusaranam Kleshaharanam II
Na Jane Mudraste Tadapi Cha Na Jane Vilapanam Param Jane Matastvadanusaranam Kleshaharanam II
Meaning: O Maa Durga! I don't know any prayer
or any magical summons to invoke you. Neither I know any mantra and have
no idea how to meditate on you. I don't know your story or glory as
well. I neither know your various postures nor am I given to crying in
distress. The only thing I know is that seeking shelter under your
protection and following your command will definitely end all
sufferings.

Tadetat Kshantavyam Janani Sakaloddharini Shive Kuputro Jayet Kwachidapi Kumata Na Bhavti II
Meaning: O Durga, assure salvation to all
troubled, I don't know how to worship you. I don't have resources or
temperament since I am nasty by nature. I don't have special knowledge
to conduct your worship as well. In rendering service to you if, I have
made any mistakes or errors, forgive me Mother because there could be a
bad son but never a bad mother.
Prithivyam Putraste Janani
Vahavaha Santi Saralah Param Tesham Madhye Viralataraloaham Tava Sutah I
Madi Yoayam Tyagah Samuchitamidam No Taya Shive Kuputro Kwachidapi Kumata Na Bhavati II
Madi Yoayam Tyagah Samuchitamidam No Taya Shive Kuputro Kwachidapi Kumata Na Bhavati II
Meaning: O Maa Durga, this earth has many of
your naïve sons, but I am the most fickle among them. There would
be hardly any one like me. Yet, O Shive! Rejecting me like this is not
proper in this world, as there could be a bad son but never a bad
mother.
Jaganmatarmatastava Charanseva Na
Rachita Na Va Duttam Devi Dravinamapi Bhooyastava Maya I
Tathapi Tvam Sneham Mayi Nirupam Yatprakurushe Kuputro Jayet Kwachidapi Kumata Na Bhavati II
Tathapi Tvam Sneham Mayi Nirupam Yatprakurushe Kuputro Jayet Kwachidapi Kumata Na Bhavati II
Meaning: O Mother of the World! I have never
rendered any service to you. I never offered money to you. Yet, you
bless me always for the reason that in this world there could be a bad
son but never a bad mother.

Kulataya Maya Panchasheeteradhikamapneete Tu Vayasi I
Idani Chenmatastava Yadi Kripa Napi Bhavata Niralambo Lambodar Janani Kam Yami Sharanam II
Idani Chenmatastava Yadi Kripa Napi Bhavata Niralambo Lambodar Janani Kam Yami Sharanam II
Meaning: O Parvati, mother of Lord Ganesha, I
had been busy restlessly. But now, I have stopped worshipping other gods
as I cannot worship them ritually. Therefore, I don't even expect any
help from them. In such a condition I am absolutely helpless. From whom
I seek shelter? I have no hope from any other god except you.
Shwapako Jalpako Bhavti Madhupako
Magira Niratanko Ranko Viharati Chiram Kotikanakaih I
Tavaparne Karne Vishati Manvarne Phalamidam Janah Ko Janeete Janani Japaneeyam Japvidhhau II
Tavaparne Karne Vishati Manvarne Phalamidam Janah Ko Janeete Janani Japaneeyam Japvidhhau II
Meaning: O Maa Aparna! One word of your holy
prayer that falls in the ear of a foolish rascal is sufficient to make
him utter sweet speech like an experienced scholar. With your blessing,
a pauper then becomes rich owning millions of gold coins and enjoying
life with all its joys till ripe old age. When listening to one word can
work such wonders, who can presume the reward obtained by those, who
continuously chant your name with full custom of worship.

Kapali Bhootesho Bhajati Jagdeeshai Ka Padavin Bhavani Tvatpanigrahan Paripati Phal Midam II
Kapali Bhootesho Bhajati Jagdeeshai Ka Padavin Bhavani Tvatpanigrahan Paripati Phal Midam II
Meaning: O Durga Bhavani! The one, who keeps
his body smeared with the ashes of the dead-bodies; who takes poison for
food, who remains naked; who has matted hair on head and the serpent
king Vasuki surrounding his neck; who has a cupal like container in his
hands. If such a Bhootnath, Lord Shiva (Pashupati-Lord of Animals) is
crowned with a title of Jagdeesh, then what is the reason behind it? How
did he gain such importance? The clear evidence is your marriage with
him.

Atastvan Sanyache Janani Jananam Yatu Mum Vai Mridani Rudrani Shiv-Shiv Bhavaneeti Japatah II
Atastvan Sanyache Janani Jananam Yatu Mum Vai Mridani Rudrani Shiv-Shiv Bhavaneeti Japatah II
Meaning: O Maa Durga, with face of moon's
elegance, I don't crave for Salvation or for material possessions. I
don't even hope to get any expertise in sciences. I don't long for
pleasure as well. My only request to you is to permit me to pass my
entire life chanting "Mridani Rudrani Shiva-Shiva Bhavani".

Shayme Tvameva Yadi Kinchan Maiyyanathe Dhatse Kripamuchitalam Param Tavaiva II
Meaning: O Maa Shyama! I never worshipped you
with complete rituals or lots of offerings. I was always occupied in
harsh words, which crime did my speech not commit? Yet, if you care for
this shelter less orphan on your own, this is eligible only for you.
Only a kind hearted mother like you can give refuge to such a bad son,
as I am.

Meaning: O Compassionate Goddess Durga! If I
remember you after falling in trouble and not before, please do not
treat me like a dishonest rogue for the reason that all children yell
for mother when they are troubled.
Jagdamb Vichitramatra Kim
Paripoorna Karunaasti Chenmayi I
Aparadha Parampara Param Na Hi Mata Samupekshate Sutam II
Aparadha Parampara Param Na Hi Mata Samupekshate Sutam II
Meaning: O Mother of the World! If you still
show your kindness towards me should not cause any surprise for the
reason, if a son has bent on committing sin after sin, still his mother
does not abandon him.
Matsamah Palaki Nasti Papaghni
Twatsama Na Hi I
Evam Gyatva Mahadevi Yatha Yogyam Tatha Kuru II
Evam Gyatva Mahadevi Yatha Yogyam Tatha Kuru II
Meaning: O Maa Durga! I am the greatest
sinner and you are the greatest sin-destroyer. Considering this fact in
mind, kindly do whatever you think proper.
