Maa Matangi Is worshipped with the offering of uchchhishta, or leftover food, instead of offering pure food, Guiding the sincere devotees Towards freedom from ordinary ideas of right and wrong, pure and impure. Maa Matangi Teaches That impurity is not caused by the failure to be ritually pure but by the limitation of wisdom and consciousness in devotees. Maa Matangi Liberates consciousness from the bondages of false notions and Blesses deserving devotees To Enable them to teach and guide others on the path of knowledge.

I meditate On Maa Matangi, Divine Form Of The Divine Mother. Sitting On A Throne Of Jewels, She Is Listening To The Sweet Sounds Of Parrots. The Colour Of Her Divine Body Is Dark. She Has One Foot On A Lotus, And She Wears A Half-Moon On Her Divine Forehead. Wearing A Garland Of Flower Buds, She Touches The Strings Of A Vina. Her Divine Form Is Wrapped In Red Garment. In Her Hand Is A Shell Bowl. Her Divine Face Is Luminous And Her Fragrance Is Divine, And A Red Dot Shines On Her Divine Forehead.
