LalithA SahasranAma [203] sarvamayi

[Guest guest]

sarvamayi : All

 

Without non-separation there cannot be unlimited dominion, hence this

name.

 

Sarva includes all the tatvas from earth to Siva.

 

The KAmika says, "There are two hundred and twenty four worlds; these

shoul be meditated upon as if they were the hairs on the body of the

lord. This is the bhuvana method. One who praises by means of the

fifty letters, should meditate on them as on the skin of the Lord of

Devas, the holder of the trident. This is the letter method. One

should meditate on the blood of Siva by means of the seven crores of

mantras which arise from the root VidyAs [Vedas]. This is the mantra

method. The Words of the Mantras which are various, according to

different arrangements stand for the flest and the blood-vessels of

the Lord. This is the word method. The thirty-six tattvas, beginning

with the earh are the forms [ie Siva's } sinews, bones and marroe.

This process the comprehensers of the Vedas call the tattva method."
