Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 dhunotu dhvaantam nastulita daliteyndeevara vanam ghanasnigdhaslakshnam cikura nikurumbam tava sivey yadeeyam saurabhyam sahajamupalbdham sumanaso vasantyasmin manyey vala madana vaatee vitapinaam Removing Darkness (in our minds,and) Comparable (to) Petalled Blue Lotus Forest Thick Tender(and) Beautiful Hairs (in abundant) Multitudes Yours (oh! ) Siva's Consort ! This (unique sweet) Scent Natural, To Obtain Desirous(with wish to obtain this smell) Present Here (in you hair) It Seems (are) Garlands (of flowers from) Exotic Courtyard Gardens (of the gods) This verse again gives the recurring theme. Though a poet may try to describe the Devi's beauty to us he cannot find comparisons. Her beauty transcends the most sublime and superior comparisons we are aware of in earth or heavens. Comparison exalts these examples which are used for comparison. Say Parijata flower has a fragrance which is unsurpassed. Krishna waged a war against gods to bring the tree to the garden of his beloved wife Satyabhama. But the fragrance of these heavenly flowers is nothing compared to the natural fragrance of Devi's hair. Flowers like Parijata and others from gardens of heaven are present in her hair so that these flowers can acquire the fragrance of her hair and become exalted and glorified. The luster of her hair is for driving out the darkness of ignorance from minds of devotees fortunate enough to be able to contemplate on her divine form. Her hair is like a forest of blue lotuses; abundant, lustrous, thick , tender beautiful and with multitudes of flowing locks. Flowers always adorn her hair as they should that of married women. The flowers add fragrance to the hair of ordinary women. But these garlands of flowers are present in Devi's hair because they wish to acquire the natural fragrance of her hair. This comparison is similar to that of most beautiful heavenly damsels wishing for oneness with Siva to see her beauty(verse 12). These flowers are from the gardens of gods and are exalted since they adorn her hair. Yantra is a square with all 4 edges extended at both ends and ending in tridents. Bijaksharam Shreem is in the centre of square. Expected result of upasana is Fame, Victory and Good Health. Some say this can also be used as Mantra to attract and captivate.
