Raktabeeja was the son of Mahisasura. He was also the admiral in the army of Mahisausra. With lotus flower, he did penance to the Adyashakti. Seeing his great devotion, the Adishakti took the guise of a lady and appeared before him. Raktabeeja, astounded by the beauty of the lady started to attack the womenfolk in order to get to her. He did not recognize the great goddess in the guise of a beautiful lady.
