Sri Lalita Sahasranama Stotram ॥ Nyasa (Preliminary Invocation) ॥

Of this Sri Lalita Sahasranama Stotra Mala Mantra, the Rishis (seers) are the Vagdevatas (deities of speech) led by Vashini. The meter is Anushtup. The presiding deity is Sri Lalita Parameshwari. The seed (Beeja) is the Shrimad Vagbhava Kuta. The power (Shakti) is the Madhya Kuta. The pin (Kilaka) is the Shakti Kuta. I perform this Japa (recitation) for the grace and success of Sri Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari, and for the attainment of all desired fruits. ॥ Dhyanam (Meditation) ॥

I meditate on the Supreme Mother (Ambika), whose form is radiant like the vermilion sun, who has three eyes, and whose crown is studded with sparkling rubies topped by the moon. Her face is smiling, her breasts are full and firm. In her hands, she holds a jewel-cup filled with nectar and a red lotus. She is gentle, and her red feet rest upon a jeweled pedestal.

Her complexion is red like the dawn, her eyes are waves of compassion, and she holds the noose, the goad, the flower-arrows, and the sugarcane bow. Surrounded by the rays of deities like Anima (the siddhis), I contemplate upon Her, the Bhavani, as 'I am She' (the Supreme Consciousness).

I meditate on Bhavani, seated on a lotus, her face blossoming, her eyes wide like lotus petals. She has the luster of gold, is draped in yellow garments, and holds a shining golden lotus in her hand. She is adorned with all ornaments, is ever-granting protection (Abhaya), bows to her devotees, is the embodiment of Sri Vidya, the peaceful one, praised by all gods, and the bestower of all wealth.

I remember the Mother (Ambika) during Japa: adorned with saffron paste and a musk tilak on her forehead, her eyes smiling gently, holding the bow of sugarcane, arrows, noose, and goad. She enchants all beings, is adorned with red garlands and garments, and shines like the Hibiscus flower. ॥ Now begins the Sri Lalita Sahasranama Stotram ॥
