Adhyaya 91 — The Gods’ Hymn to Kātyāyanī and the Goddess’ Prophecy of Future Manifestations
किरीटिनि महावज्रे सहस्रनयनोज्ज्वले ।
वृत्रप्राणहरे चैन्द्रि नारायणी नमोऽस्तु ते ॥
kirīṭini mahāvajre sahasranayanojjvale / vṛtraprāṇahare caindri nārāyaṇi namo 'stu te
سلامٌ لكِ، يا نارايَني—يا ذات التاج، حاملة الصاعقة العظمى (الفَجْرَة/الفَجْرَا)؛ المتلألئةُ ببهاء ذي الألف عين (إندرا). يا أَيْندري، قاتلةُ نَفَسِ حياة فِرِترا.

The ‘vajra’ victory over Vṛtra becomes a moral image: obstacles to truth and order are to be confronted with clarity, courage, and rightful authority.
Carita—devotional recasting of Vedic heroic motifs inside Devī-theology.
Vṛtra signifies constriction; the vajra signifies sudden liberating insight. Aindrī thus represents the power that shatters inner blockage and restores flow (ṛta).
