Meaning:

“Oh! Devi! Lalita! I prostrate to you. All the celestial beings worship you. You are the consort of Lord SHIVA. I pray to you for protection.

You are the origin of all wealth, knowledge and power. You create everything in the universe. Your spiritual brilliance is ever fresh. Bless me with the realisation of SAT-CHIT-ANANDA (Truth- Knowledge-Bliss).

The Divine Mother is the originator of all the grace and power in the entire universe. It is by her Divine will, that all the creatures are empowered and energised to speak, to do or to think.
