Must Hear this Legend of Maa Lalita
Maa Lalita is worshipped on the day of Lalita Panchami. The observer of fast must hear the legend of Maa Lalita on this very day. Once, everyone stood up in the honour of King Daksha Prajapati but Lord Shiva did not move an inch. King Daksha did not like the behaviour of Lord Shiva, the husband of his daughter Sati, and considered it as an insult. Daksha organised a Yagya at his place and invited all deities. But, to take revenge for the insult, the king did not invite Lord Shiva.

When Maa Sati came to know about this, she went directly to attend the Yagya without any invitation. The king spoke highly ill of Lord Shiva during the Yagya. When Sati heard all the harsh words uttered for her husband, she could not bear the insult and sacrificed her life by jumping into Yagya Vedi.
When Lord Shiva came to know about this sacrifice, he reached there instantly. He lifted the dead body of his wife on his shoulder and started wandering here and there in anger and sorrow. When Lord Vishnu saw this condition of Lord Shiva then he pierced the body of Maa Sati with his Chakra. She imbibed Lord Shiva in her heart and hence, she was known as Maa Lalita.
