More info :
Around 1548 AD a Rishi (Sage) called Mukthaka was asked by King Sumanaska to perform a Yajna (A sacred fire ritual to eliminate negative forces and invite Divine Grace) for the prosperity of the Kingdom. Rishi Mukthaka selected a village called Ganjam on the banks of the River Kaveri for this holy purpose. This is at present in Srirangapatna near Mysore, Karnataka state. While he was immersed in Tapas (Austerities), he was constantly harassed by two demons (Asuras) named Jaanu and Sumandala. The Great Sage invoked Adishakthi (The primordial energy that created this Universe) by offering oblations through the sacred fire (Homa). Adishakthi, the Infinite Cosmic Energy, manifested in the form of the Divine Mother in all Her resplendent glory from the Sacrificial Fire and vanquished the demons in an instant.
