Each name is recited as ॐ [name] नमः. This namavali follows the दकारादि (da-initial) tradition in which every name begins with 'd'. Devanagari spellings follow the pothi compilation supplied by the temple community; recite per your family tradition.

When it is recited: Recited during Devi puja and archana — especially through the nine nights of Navratri, on Durga Ashtami and on Fridays — offering a red flower, sindoor or akshata with each name.
Traditional significance: This garland of names praises Durga as the power that walks the difficult path with her devotees — slayer of the demon Durgama, friend of the distressed, ocean of compassion and mother of the gods.
