DEVI BHAAGAVATAM - SKANDA 9
9#1N. THE OTHER DEVIS (3)
PratishtA Devi (Goddess of Fame and Celebrity) is the wife of PuNya Deva (God of Merit). She gives merits to persons in accordance to their devotion to Her. Were it not for Her, all the persons would roam around like dead persons - even while they were living.
Keerti Devi (Goddess of Fame) is the wife of Sukarma ( God of Good works). She herself a Siddha and all the people honour Her with great reverence. Were it not for Her, all the persons in this world would have been dead, devoid of any fame and without leaving behind a good name.
KriyA Devi (Goddess of Work, Efforts and Action) is the wife of “Udyoga”
(God of Enthusiasm). All honor Her greatly. Were it not for Her, the people would not have any rules regulating what they do.
Falsehood is the wife of Adharma (God of Unrighteousness). She is honored greatly by all the cheats of this world. Were she not liked by them, then all the cheats would become extinct and the world would be rid of them.
She was not visible to anybody in the Satya Yuga. Her subtle form became visible in the TretA Yuga. When the DvApara Yuga came, She became half developed. And at last when the Kali Yuga came, She is fully developed. With her wicked brother Deceitfulness, She roams around from house to house in Kali Yuga.
Peace and Modesty are both the wives of the God of good behavior. Were they not existent, all in this world would have turned out deluded and mad.
Intelligence, Genius and Fortitude, these three are the wives of GnAna (God of Knowledge). But for these Devis, every one would become stupid and insane.
