Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Her hair is adorned with the (flowers of ) Campaka, Asoka, Punnaga and sugandhika: (campakAshokapunnAgasaugandhikalasatkachA). The physical form of Devi as born from th ealtar of fire (4th name) is described from head to foot, the head being taken first as it also represents the first kuta named; vagbhava (group) of the Panchadashi mantra. Her hair gives scent to the flowers. It is said , "Thou knowest, O honey bee, the smell of the flowers. Give me the truth> Can I compare the odour of the hair of Devi with anything?."
