Adhyaya 88 — The Manifestation of the Matrikas and the Slaying of Raktabija
वज्रहस्ता तथैवेन्द्रि गजराजोपरि स्थिता ।
प्राप्ता सहस्रनयना यथा शक्रस्तथैव सा ॥
vajrahastā tathaivaindrī gajarājopari sthitā /
prāptā sahasranayanā yathā śakrastathaiva sā
اسی طرح اَیندری آئیں، ہاتھ میں وجر (صاعقہ) لیے، ہاتھیوں کے سردار پر سوار؛ وہ ہزار آنکھوں والی تھیں، جیسے شکر (اِندر) ہے—ویسی ہی وہ تھیں۔

The gods’ powers are shown as contingent and derivational—Shakti can assume every divine attribute. Devotion is redirected from limited office-holders (devas) to the underlying Power that enables them.
Carita (narrative) serving dharma-upadeśa through exemplars: the restoration of order by divine power. Not a genealogical/manvantara passage.
Vajra signifies indestructible discernment; the elephant-mount suggests steadiness and royal authority. Aindrī embodies the capacity to wield decisive, unbreakable resolve against chaos.
