LalithA SahasranAma [997] srimat-tripura-sundarI

[Guest guest]

srimat-tripura-sundarI : The divine TripurasundarI.

 

The wife of Tripurasundara, Parasiva.

 

Tripura, Paramasiva, because the three, BrahmA, Visnu and Rudra are

his body. The KAlikA Pr. says, "By the will of the pradhAna the body

of Siva become triple. Then the upper part of Mahesvara became BrahmA

with five faces, four arms, and whose body had the colour of the

pericarp of the lotus. His middle part became Visnu of the blue

colour, having one face, four arms, bearing the conch, disc, club and

lotus. The lower part became Rudra having five faces, four arms and

the colour of a white cloud and the moon as a crest jewel. As these

three Puras are in him, he is called Tripura".
