For nine nights the feminine power, the Devi, unfolds her powers, forces and qualities in the struggle against darkness.
Countless are the shades of the Light in driving away the dark.
She brings these powers into play because transcendence alone has no possibility of transforming the personal and universal nature.
Thus the Devi, acting with her own energies in the field of prakriti, becomes Brahman itself.
There is nothing higher than Brahman, which is transcendent and immanent at once.
