বশ্যবারাহী স্তোত্রম্

A hymn of vaśya, the drawing of others into accord, which its colophon places in the Atharvaśikhā and whose viniyoga names Nārada as seer with aiṁ for the seed, klīṁ for the power and glauṁ for the pin — the three seeds of speech, attraction and Vārāhī herself, in that order. The frame is stated without euphemism in the first line, which calls the whole thing the mantra of the hymn for the winning over of all. The record keeps the full placing on head, mouth, heart and hands before the verses begin. Its closing terms are precise about frequency rather than duration, asking for recitation at all three junctures of the day, and what it offers the devotee is put in worldly terms — Ramā and a kingdom, wealth and standing, rather than release.
