Adhyaya 85 — The Gods’ Hymn to the Goddess and the Emergence of Kaushiki; Shumbha Sends His Envoy
या देवी सर्वभूतेषु स्मृतिरूपेण संस्थिता ।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः ॥
yā devī sarvabhūteṣu smṛtirūpeṇa saṃsthitā / namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaḥ
礼敬彼女神,住于一切众生之中,以“smṛti”(记忆)之相而现;礼敬于她,礼敬于她,礼敬于她;复又复,礼敬。

Memory—needed for learning, gratitude, and moral continuity—is revered as divine; forgetting dharma is implicitly a loss of connection to Devī’s sustaining presence.
A stuti element that strengthens dharmic life; not a direct treatment of sarga/pratisarga/manvantara/vaṃśa/vaṃśānucarita.
Smṛti is the power of recollection that supports mantra-japa and self-remembrance; it also hints at the deeper ‘anamnesis’ of one’s spiritual identity.
