Dear Subbuji,

Lord Krishna also said in the Purana, that* in the panchayatana worship,
the Devi is worshipped for Mukti or Liberation.* Lord Krishna, according to
the Ttantra shastra,  is the male form of Mother Kali, one of the forms of
Devi herself. Mother Lalita is also another form of the Devi, who gives
Mukti. *That is why Gaudapadacharya asked Adi Shankara to write his 16th or
the last bhashya, i.e.,  the Lalita Trishati Bhashya* and he (Adi
Shankara)  himself spent his last days  the feet of Mother Lalita in
Kanchipuram.

My 2 cents
Sunil K B.
