The Durga Saptashati, also called the Devi Mahatmya or the Chandi Patha, is a text of seven hundred verses in thirteen chapters drawn from the Markandeya Purana. It narrates the Devi's three great acts and is the central recitation of the Shakta tradition. A path is one complete reading, performed with the prescribed angas — the Kavacha, Argala and Kilaka that precede it and the Devi Suktam that closes it. The larger packages add a havan and, at the top, a counted anushthan.
The Saptashati is not read as narrative but recited as mantra: the tradition surrounds it with its own protective angas before and after, and prescribes that it be taken whole rather than in parts. That is why a path is counted as one complete recitation, and why the counted observances — Navachandi, Shatachandi — are defined as multiples of it.
