Bagalamukhi: The Goddess of Hypnotic Power

Introduction
Shri Baglamukhi or Bagalamukhi devotion is known as ultimate power in modern era, She
has atomic powers and indeed she is a enemy destroyer. Bagala or Baglamukhi is the eighth
Mahavidya in the famous series of the 10 Mahavidyas. She is identified with the second night
of courage and is the power or Shakti of cruelty. She is described as the Devi with three eyes,
wearing yellow clothes and gems, moon as her diadem, wearing champaka blossoms, with
left hand holding the tongue of an enemy and with the right hand spiking him, thus should
you meditate on the paralyser of the three worlds. Seated on the right of Bagala is the
Maharudra, with one face, who dissolves the universe. 

The name literally means “crane faced,” though this is a misnomer. The name 'Bagla' or
'Bagala' is a distortion of the original Sanskrit root 'ValgA'. She has a golden complexion
and her cloth is yellow. She sits in a golden throne in the midst of an ocean of nectar full of
yellow lotuses. A crescent moon adorns her head. She holds a club in her right hand with
which she beats the demon, while pulling his tongue out with her left hand. This image is
sometimes interpreted as an exhibition ofStambhana, the power to stun or paralyze one’s
enemy into silence. This is one of the boons for which Bagalamukhi’s devotees worship her.
Other Mahavidya goddesses are also said to represent similar powers useful for defeating
enemies, to be invoked by their worshippers through various rituals. 

"It is not appropriate to assume Baglamukhi as a "Black Power" or "Black Magic". In fact
Baglamukhi protect the universe from black power and evil forces."

Origin of The Maa Baglamukhi

The legend behind the origin of goddess Bagalamukhi is as follows:- 

Before time immemorial, a huge storm erupted over the universe. As it threatened to destroy
whole of the creation, The Lord Vishnu called on the supreme power and Goddess
Bagalamukhi emerged from the 'Haridra Sarovara' in the Saurashtra region
(Kathiyawada), and the same time all direction brightened up with unique light of Shree
Vidhya. That night was called Veer Ratri and sky was full of stars. That day was Tuesday
and Chaturdashi. She had been served by Pannch Makkar’s. She made her home in deep
yellow turmeric, from that mid-night and appeased by the prayer of the God, calmed down
the storm. 

After that Tantric’s (Practitioner of Divine power) use to include Pannch Makkar’s in their
diet. From the light of ShreeVidya, 2nd Trilok Stambhani, Brahmastra Vidya emerged. The
power That Brahmastra Vidya merged into The Lord Vishnu’s Power. 

A demon named Madan undertook austerities and won the boon of vak siddhi, according to
which anything he said came about. He abused this boon by harassing innocent people.
Enraged by his mischief, the gods worshipped Bagalamukhi. She stopped the demon's
rampage by taking hold of his tongue and stilling his speech. Before she could kill him,
however, he asked to be worshipped with her, and she relented, That is why he is depicted
with Goddess Bagalamukhi.
