Matter was studied and pursued, till, one day,, it vanished into Energy. So, this Universal Sea of Matter which we see, is nothing but a Universal Sea of energy ! As per the Law of Conservation of Matter/Energy, It can neither by created nor destroyed !
Scientifically speaking, the Sum Totality of Univerrsal Enegry is conserved and knoweth no change ! And this Primodrial Cosmic Energy was called by the ancient as Adi ( Primordial ) Para ( Cosmic ) Shakti ( Energy ) in Sanskrit.
Thou art the Judge Divine who decrees,
Also the Defence Counsel who defends !
Vidhichidum Nyaya Pathadhipan Nee,
Mathicha Vada prativadiyum Nee !
This Primal Universal Energy,
Became celestial objects to disribute,
The fruits of Karma to all !
Jeevanam Karma Phalada Graha Roopi Adya !
Adya means the First,
Primal, Primordial or Primeval,
Derived from Prathama, Prima,
Meaning the First Principle.
All defintions by Savants,
Fit this Primal Energy,
It is Self Contained Existence,
And Proof of Itself !
It is That which Is,
It is the All in Al,l,
Yet which transcends the All,
Which exceeds the All
That Art Thou,
Tat Tvam Asi !
I am also That,
Sivoham, Sivoham,
It is all Becomings,
And which exceeds all Becomings,
It is Space, Time and Causality
As well as being Timeless and Spaceless !
It is an impartial Mother,
In Gita's mighty term Samam Brahma,
The Groundlessness of Boehme,
Also Jove, Jehova or Lord,
The Absolute of Hegel,
The Creative Evolution of Bergson,
The Life Force of Shaw,
And Self of the Philosophers !
The Absolute Maximum of Cusanus,
The Para or Moola Prakriti of India,
Natura Naturans of Spinoza,
And the Zero of the Buddhists !

The Ninefold Deity is the Mother Divine in her nine aspects. She is the Sacred Feminine of Gnosticism, the Maya of Vedanta, the Prakriti of Sankhya and the Shakti of Tantra. She is the beginningless Ignorance or Nescience ( Avidya ), which binds man to the sublunar world.
She is the manifest power of the Unmanifest !
The power of the Unmanifest Lord Triune, Tri-featured and Eternal The generatrix of the Universe is She Universal Mind, which sprung from the Lord !
This Nava Durga Mantra protects the seeker, whether he be amidst enemies or in the battlefield, or enveloped by worries and difficulties. He who takes refuge in the Mother Divine will be protected by the Creatrix of the Universe.
She is begininngless, because of her structural inherence in the phenomenal words. All the universes and multiverses are in transitional flux, in exact antithesis to the Immutability of the Divine !

Lust, greed, anger, jealousy, sloth, covetousness, gluttony, the Seven Deadly Sins, have their home in us.
Man houses dangerous forces in his house The Titan, the Fury and Djinn Lay in the Subconscient’s cavern pit And the beast moved in his antre den !
The Mother Divine destroys them one by one, to give us immortal Bliss. For this purpose, She is propitiated on Nine Days, during the Nine Lunations, during the Nine Thidhis, in Her Nine Aspects !.
