śrī jvālāmukhī stotram

A hymn to Jwalamukhi which, unlike the ashtaka beside it in this cluster, gives her an ordinary goddess's body rather than describing flame. She stands on a lion, three-eyed, wearing the digit of the moon, and her four hands hold fearlessness and a lotus and a mace and the granting of boons; her shoulders are bright with golden earrings and her smile is called artless. What the first verse does keep of the shrine is the light: her body blazing, lighting up the divisions of the ten directions, and the request that she always take away the darkness that is delusion. One verse states her scope in a single compound — the mother of everything from Brahma down to a worm — and then calls her the queen of Shiva, with the brightness of a crore of suns at the dissolution.
