śrī lalitā stavarājaḥ (viśvarūpa stotram)

The thirteenth chapter of the Lalitopakhyana in the Brahmanda Purana, titled there the Vishvarupa Stotra, spoken by the gods. Its method is to find her in the divisions of things. One verse gives her the whole of time — the kala, the muhurta, the kashtha, the day, the month, the season, the year — and calls her thousand-headed, thousand-faced and thousand-eyed. Another gives her the limbs of yoga: withdrawal of the senses is her senses, meditation her intelligence, the mind her power of holding, and her heart is samadhi itself. Late in the hymn she is saluted as the one mother of the world and the one father of it, the tantra of all forms and the form of all yantras, and it closes on four lines that each begin: be gracious.
