The story, recounted in the [[Skanda Purana]], tells of a princess named Chandravadani who was held captive by an evil king. When her husband, a sage named Narayana Muni, sought divine help from goddess Lakshmi, who came to his aid in the form of Goddess Chandralamba. She sent five bumblebees from her sacred footwear (''paduka'') to defeat the king, who was eventually drowned in the Bhima River. This legend establishes her as a powerful force against evil and a protector of the righteous.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Shri Laxmi Chandralamba Devi Parameshwari |url=https://chandralamba.org/History_of_Shrine.htm |access-date=2025-08-12 |website=chandralamba.org}}</ref><br />
