The Mahavidya (Dus Mahavidya Frame), as a group, represents a vital turning point in the history of Shaktism, as it marks the rise of Bhakti in Shaktism. This movement reached its peak in 1700 C.E. commencing during the post-Puranic era, in about the 6th century C.E., this new theistic movement envisioned the Supreme Being as a female. – Dus Mahavidya Frame

Important Hindu texts such as the Devi-Bhagavata Purana, especially in the seventh skandha, which are known as the Devi Geeta, talk about the Devi’s powers. This soon became the central texts of Shaktism. – Dus Mahavidya Frame
