Seated majestically upon a throne fashioned from five corpses, she radiates the essence of the five Brahmas, embodying pure consciousness, supreme bliss, and dense, unfathomable knowledge. She is the very form of meditation, the meditator, and the object of meditation itself; transcending both righteousness and unrighteousness, her universal form encompasses waking, dreaming, and the subtle self. Appearing as the sleeper, she is the embodiment of deep sleep and the transcendent fourth state, existing beyond all states of consciousness. As the creator of the universe, she assumes the nature of Brahma; as its protector, she takes the form of Govinda. When the time comes for dissolution, she becomes Rudra, dissolving all, and as the sovereign she conceals the universe. She is Sadāśiva, bestowing grace and ever devoted to the fivefold cosmic acts. At the heart of the solar orb, she dwells as Bhairavi, adorned with fortune, seated on a lotus—the divine sister of Padmanabha. With every opening and closing of her eyes, countless worlds arise and dissolve. She possesses a thousand heads, faces, eyes, and feet, truly the Mother of all beings—from Brahma himself down to the tiniest insect. She ordains the duties of castes and stages of life; her command is the very form of the Vedas, and she grants the fruits of virtue and vice. The dust of her lotus feet marks the parting of the Vedas’ hair, and she is the pearl enclosed within the shell of all collected scriptures. She grants the aims of human life, is complete, and enjoys all delights as the sovereign of worlds. The Mother, without beginning or end, is served by Vishnu, Brahma, and Indra. She is Narayani, whose form is sound, beyond name and form, the embodiment of the sacred syllable ‘Hrīm’, possessed of modesty, pleasing to the heart, and free from both acceptance and rejection. Worshipped by kings of kings, she is the queen, beautiful and lotus-eyed, delighting and enchanting, adorned with a tinkling girdle. She is Lakshmi, her face radiant like the full moon, the embodiment of love, delighting in love. She grants protection, destroys demons, is pleasing, and passionately attached to her consort. Desired by all, she is the very form of creative power, delighting in kadamba blossoms, auspicious, the root of the universe, and an ocean of nectar-filled compassion. Adorned with arts, her speech is artful, she is beautiful, delights in kadambari wine, grants boons, her eyes lovely, intoxicated with the ecstasy of Varuni. Surpassing the universe, she is known through the Vedas, dwelling on Mount Vindhya—the creatrix, mother of the Vedas, power of Vishnu, ever playful. Her nature is the field, she is the sovereign of the field, protecting both the field and its knower, free from decay and growth, honored by the guardians of the field. Victorious, pure, worthy of reverence, affectionate to those who bow to her, eloquent, with beautiful hair, she dwells within the circle of fire. For the devoted, she is the wish-fulfilling creeper, liberator from worldly bonds, destroyer of heretics, and promoter of right conduct. She is moonlight, delighting those scorched by the triple fires of suffering; ever youthful, worshipped by ascetics, slender-waisted, and remover of darkness. She is consciousness aiming for the supreme state, her own bliss the source of bliss for Brahma and the other gods. The Supreme, form of inner consciousness, the seer, the highest goddess; she is madhyama and vaikhari, the swan dwelling in devotees’ minds. She is the life-channel of Kameshvara, knower of deeds, worshipped by Kama, filled with the essence of love, victorious, established in Jalandhara. She dwells in the Oḍyāṇa seat, abiding in the circle of bindu, worshipped through secret rites, satisfied by secret offerings. Instantly granting grace, she witnesses the universe yet is beyond all witnesses, accompanied by six-limbed deities, fully endowed with six divine qualities. Ever tender, without equal, she bestows the bliss of liberation; her form is the eternal sixteen, and she shares her body with Śrīkaṇṭha. Radiant and of the nature of light, she is renowned, the supreme sovereign, the primal substance—both manifest and unmanifest. All-pervading, manifold in form, her nature is both knowledge and ignorance; she is moonlight delighting the water-lilies of Kāmeśa’s eyes. Her radiant line of light dispels darkness in devotees’ hearts like the sun; she is the messenger of Śiva, worshipped by Śiva, embodiment of Śiva, and bestower of auspiciousness. Beloved and devoted to Shiva, cherished and worshipped by the noble, immeasurable, self-luminous, beyond mind and speech. She is the embodiment of consciousness-power, sentience itself, possessor of inert power, insentience; Gayatri, the sacred utterance, the twilight worship, attended by twice-born groups. Seated in the essence of reality, composed of existence’s very principles, she abides within the five sheaths; her greatness is boundless, eternally youthful, radiant with intoxicating splendor. Her limitless intoxication makes her red eyes sway; her cheeks glow with passion, her limbs anointed with sandalwood paste, delighting in champaka flowers. Skillful and gentle, she is Kurukulla, sovereign of the Kula, abiding in the Kulakunda, served with devotion by those on the Kaula path. Mother of Kumara and the hosts, she is satisfaction, nourishment, intelligence, steadfastness, peace, auspiciousness, radiance, delight, and remover of obstacles. Radiant, three-eyed, with rolling eyes, she assumes forms at will, adorned with garlands, swan-like, dwelling on Mount Malaya. Fair-faced, lotus-like, with beautiful brows, splendid, leader of the gods; dark-throated, full of charm, stirring, and of subtle form. Lady of the Vajra, Auspicious One on the left, untouched by age, Mistress and Knowledge of Siddhas, Mother of Siddhas, renowned. She resides in the Viśuddhi chakra, red in color, three-eyed, wielding weapons like the khaṭvāṅga, with a single face. Delighting in offerings of milk and rice, abiding in the skin, terrifying to the world of animals, surrounded by great powers such as Amrita, she is the sovereign of the Dakinis. Dwelling in the lotus of the Anahata (heart), she has a dark radiance, two faces, shining fangs, bears a rosary and other objects, and is established in blood. Thus, she is revealed: the Supreme Mother, ever-present, ever-compassionate, the source, sustainer, and liberator of all.
