Guest guest Posted February 9, 2003 Report Share Posted February 9, 2003 Dear Devi bakthas, in this part of the Sree Lalitha Sahasra namavali called as Dhyanam, Sree Lalithambika's beautiful image is picturised in a detailed way. All those who chant Sree Lalitha Sahasranamam, should try to picturise (meditate) her in this form in their mind, and then start chanting the namams. Sree Lalithambika's beautiful presence can be described in infinite ways. Sinduraruna vigraham tri nayanam manikya mauli sphurat Tara nayaka sekharam smita mukhim apina vakshoruham Panibhyam ali purna ratna chashakam raktotpalam bibrathim Saumyam ratna ghatastha raktha charanam dhyayetparamambikam. Our pranams to Sree Lalithambika whose body is glowing in a vermilion red color and with three eyes. She is sporting a crown of rubies studded with the crescent moon, with a face full of smiles. That She is easily accessible is indicated by Her benign smile. Our pranams to Sree Lalithambika, who has in store for her children an inexhausible life in Her splendid and full breast. She is holding in one hand a cup which is made up of precious jewels and filled with honey and fresh red lotus which is surrounded by bees who come to drink the nectar from it, in the other hand. These symbolise joy and wisdom of which She alone is the source. Her feet is placed on a precious pot full of valuable gems indicating that nothing is difficult for those who surrender to Her feet and take refuge in Her. ********************************************************************** DhyayeT padmasanastham vikasita vadanam padma patrayatakshim Hemabham pitavastram kara kalita lasad hema padmam varangim Sarvalankara yuktam satatamabhayadam bhakta namram bhavanim Srividyam santamurthim sakala suranutham sarva sampat pradatrim. Sri Devi Bhavani is ever to be meditated upon as seated in a lotus, with face beaming with joy, eyes soft and elongated like lotus petals, radiating a golden hue, dressed in yellow silk, sporting a golden lotus in her hand, perfect in every limb, profusely decorated, compassionate towards devotees, and bestowing protection and all prosperity on them. Adored by all celestials, she is the very embodiment of Sri Vidya and Tranquility. She dispels fear and is the epitome of peace. Sree Laltihambika gives every wealth that is sought to her devotees. Sakumkuma vilepanam alika chumbi kasturikam Samanda hasitekshanam sasara chapa pasankusam Asesha jana mohinim aruna malya bhushambaram Japa kusuma bhasuram japavidhau smaredambikam. We meditate Sree Lalithambika, whose body is anointed all over with vermilion and musk that attracts the bees, whose glance itself is a lovely smile, who holds in her hand the bow, the arrow, the noose and the goad, who captivates everyone with exception, who is adorned with red garlands and ornaments and who shines with the hue of the China rose. ********************************************************************** Arunam karuna tharangithakshim Drita pasankusha pushpa bhana chapam Animathi bhiravrutham mayookhai Ahamithyeva vibhavaye bhavanim. We meditate on the Devi Bhavani, great Empress who is light red in colour, Whose eyes are full of compassion, Who has in Her hands the noose, the goad, the bow and the flowery arrow and Who is surrounded on all sides by the eight siddhis (powers), such as anima, mahima, laghima, gharima, ishitwam, vashitwam, prapti, prakashyam. Sree Devi Lalithambike, may I imagine thyself within me. ********************************************************************** www.hinduweb.org/home/general_sites/sita/sitakasansar/dhyanam.htm OM SREE MATRE NAMAHA!
