देवा ऊचुः । जयाक्षरे जयाऽनंते जयाऽव्यक्ते निरामये । जय देवि महामाये जय देवर्षिवंदिते
devā ūcuḥ | jayākṣare jayā'naṃte jayā'vyakte nirāmaye | jaya devi mahāmāye jaya devarṣivaṃdite
Les dieux dirent : Victoire à Toi, ô Impérissable ; victoire à Toi, ô Infinie ; victoire à Toi, ô Inmanifestée, ô Sans-tache. Victoire, ô Déesse de la grande Māyā ; victoire à Toi, honorée par les rishis divins.
Devas
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī (Mahāmāyā)
Scene: A chorus of devas with folded hands offers a cascading ‘jaya’ hymn to the unmanifest, stainless Devī, envisioned as a radiant presence above the sacred coastal kṣetra.
The highest refuge is the Devī who is beyond change (akṣara), beyond limits (ananta), and beyond ordinary perception (avyakta).
The hymn arises within the Prabhāsakṣetra-māhātmya narrative; the immediate setting is Himavat, while Prabhāsa remains the textual sacred frame.
Stotra-recitation to the Devī is exemplified as a devotional act for protection and restoration of cosmic order.
