According to Kularnava Tantra, Mata Dhumavati is considered the 7th power of the 10 Mahavidyas. According to the legend, Mata Dhumavati was born from the smoke generated from the body of Mata Sati after she jumped into the Yagya Kund and immolated herself. After birth, Mother Dhumavati was distraught with hunger, that is why her body looks dilapidated.
It is also believed that once Mother Parvati felt very hungry. Then mother asked Lord Shiva for a solution to satisfy hunger. On this Lord Shiva asked Mother Parvati to wait for some time. But Mother Parvati could not bear the hunger. As a result, he swallowed Lord Shiva. After swallowing Lord Shiva, Mother Parvati started burning due to his poison. Then Mother Parvati appeared in the form of smoke, who came to be known as Dhumavati.
On Dhumavati Jayanti, wake up early in the morning and take bath etc. After this, clean the worship place of the house and purify it with Ganga water. Place a picture of Mother Dhumavati in the worship place of the house. Keep the picture in front and worship it with incense, lamp, fruits, rice and vermilion. Offer food to the mother.
