ॐ दुं दुर्गायै नमः Om Dum Durgayai Namah

oṃ duṃ durgāyai namaḥ

A single-line seed mantra addressed to Durga, joining her bija 'dum' to a plain salutation. Brief enough to be repeated in japa on a mala, it is taken up during Navaratri and other observances of the Devi, and turned to by those seeking her protection, courage and freedom from fear.
