** Our Devi of this Week *** Sri Tvarita Devi **

[Guest guest]

Sri Tvarita is the quickest to grant fruit to her Sadhaka compared to

any other goddess. She is of auspicious form in the first flush of

youth and of dark complexion. She has three eyes and four hands and

her beautiful lotus-like face smiles gently. She is clad in new

leaves. She is adorned with eight fierce and great serpents. On her

head is a crystal crown with a crest of peacock's feather. Her

arms

are adorned with bangles made of beautiful peacock's tail

feathers.

Strings of Gunja berries hand round her throat. Her breasts are

smeared with red sandal paste. She holds in her four hands, noose,

goad and Mudras of Vara and Abhaya. She is seated on a golden throne,

surrounded by lions and bears. She grants education, health, wealth,

physical radiance and long life. She protects from poisonous attacks

and poverty. Her Sadhaka becomes capable of even enchanting the

celestial nymphs.

 

Her mantra is: OM tvaritaayai vidmahe mahaanityaayai dhiimahi tanno

nityaa prachodayaat.
