She has three eyes; Her hue is like that of red sindhura; the diadem of precious stones She wears has a crescent on it shining wonderfully.

That She is easily accessible is indicated by Her benign smile; Her children have an inexhaustible store of the milk of life in Her full breasts; the vessel of honey in one hand and the red lotus in the other symbolize joy and wisdom of which She alone in the source; and Her feet placed on the precious pot full of valuable gems indicate that these are not difficult for those who surrender to Her feet and take refuge in Her.

I meditate on Sri Bhavani who is seated in the lotus of expansive countenance, Whose eyes are like lotus petals, who is golden-hued, who wears a yellow raiment, who has in her hand lotus flowers of gold, who always dispels fear, whose devotees bow before her, who is the embodiment of peace, who is Sri Vidya Herself who is praised by the gods, and who gives every wealth that is sought...

I meditate on the Mother whose eyes are smiling a little, who has in Her hands the arrow, the bow, the noose and goad, who bewitches everybody, who is glittering with red garlands and ornaments, who is painted with vermillion, whose forehead is kissed with the mark of musk and who is red and tender like the japa flower...

I mediate on the great Empress who is light red in color, 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 powers, such as 'anima,' like rays, as if She is the Self within me...

Gatistvam gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

 

Oh Bhavani, I have no father, no mother, no relatives, no giver, no son, no daughter, no servant, no master, no wife, no knowledge, no occupation.

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

Gatistvam Gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

 

In this endless ocean of worldly life in which I have fallen, I am fearful of the vast misery, I am lustful, greedy and careless. I am always tied up with the chain of wicked worldliness.

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

Na jaanaami tantram na cha stotramantram

Na jaanaami poojaam na cha nyasayogam

Gatistvam gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

Na jaanaami punyam na jaanaami teertham

Na jaanaami muktim layam vaa kadaachit

Na jaanaami bhaktim vratam vaapi maataha

Gatistvam gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

Dinesham nisheethe shvaram vaa kadaachit

Na jaanaami chaanyat sadaaham sharanye

Gatistvam gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

 

I do not know Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, India, Sun, or Moon. You are the one who protects everyone! I do not know anyone else (except You).

Vivaade vishaade pramaade pravaase

Jale chaanale parvate shatru madhye

You who protects everyone! Please protect me always in the midst of disputes, sorrow, danger, foreign travels, in the waters, fire, mountains, or while among the enemies or in the forest.

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

 

 

(8)

Anaatho daridro jaraaroga yukto

Mahaaksheena deenah sadaa jaanya vaktraha

Vipatto Pravishtah pranashtah sadaaham

Gatistvam gatistvam tvamekaa Bhavaani

 

I am an orphan, poor, accompanied with disease and old age, am very weak, unfortunate, sunk in sorrow and my face always has a dull and sluggish look. Having fallen in distress, I am lost.

Oh, Bhavaani! You are the only One Recourse.

 

 

THE FULL SRI LALITA SAHASRANAMA STOTRA
 

The Lalitha Sahasranamam Stotram or Lalita Sahasra Namam Stotra is the sacred Hindu devotional slokha for the devotees of Goddess Lalitha Devi, the Divine Mother Goddess Parvathi Devi in the form of her and the male gods' feminine power, Shakti.

Lalitha Sahasranamam Stotram appears in Brahmanda Purana in the chapter of discussion between Sage Agasthya and Hayagriva, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu with the horse head. At his request of sage Agastya, Hayagreeva taught him Lalita Sahasranamam Stotram or the most holy 1000 names of Goddess Lalitha, the Goddess of bliss. Lalitha Sahasranamam Sloka is organized according to Pancha Kruthyam (5 works). The Pancha Kruthyam are Srishti (Creation), Stithi (Protection), Samharam (Destruction), Thirodhanam (Hiding), and Anugraham (Blessing).

Lalita Sahasranamam is also known as the Rahasya Nama Sahasra (the thousand secret names). Lalitha Sahasra Namam is a very powerful slokha chanting it and meditating it on the meaning of the 1000 names of Goddess Lalitha will ward off all evils and would lead to the fulfillment of all the wishes of the devotees. Chanting Lalitha Sahasranamam on Fridays is considered auspicious.
