daśavidyāmayī śrī bālā stotram

Bala Tripurasundari praised as all ten Mahavidyas at once, from the Meru Tantra. The first verse sets the scheme out plainly — Kali, Bagalamukhi, Lalita, Dhumavati, Bhairavi, Matangi, Bhuvaneshvari, Kamala, Vajravairochani and Tara, the ten declared by Shambhu himself — and asks that Bala, who takes on all ten forms in play, protect the devotee. Each verse that follows then shows her as one of them: dark as a rain-cloud, holding sword and severed head, she is Kalika; yellow-clad, seizing the tongue of every foe, mace in hand, she is Bagalamukhi. Recited by Sri Vidya practitioners for protection and for the removal of danger.
