What is the historical and traditional background?
Ashtottara sata namavalis are a standard feature of Hindu devotional literature derived from Puranic and Tantric traditions. This compilation likely draws from the Devi Mahatmyam (Markandeya Purana), the Skanda Purana, and Shakta Agamas. The inclusion of names identifying Durga with Shiva's consort and with Lakshmi reflects the integrative quality of Puranic goddess theology.
