தேவேசி! மூவுலகிலும் இங்கு ‘அஸ்தி’—அதாவது ‘இருப்பது’—என்று சொல்லப்படுவது எதுவாயினும், தேவியே, அதன் ரூபம் உண்மையில் உன்னதே; அது மலைகளிலும் நிலைத்திருக்கிறது.
Devas (collective praise to the Devī)
Tirtha: Arbuda-parvata (as representative of parvata-śakti)
Type: peak
Scene: A panoramic tri-loka tableau dissolves into the Goddess’s form; mountains appear as her body—peaks as crown, forests as hair—while the devotee realizes ‘all existence is You’.
FAQs
