Part II Soundarya Lahari (The waves of beauty)<br />

This stanza till the end describes the great mother Shakti from<br />

head to foot. These are supposed to be composed by the Adi<br />

Shankara himself.<br />

gatai-rmāṇikyatvaṃ gaganamaṇibhiḥ sāndraghaṭitaṃ<br />

kirīṭaṃ te haimaṃ himagirisute kītayati yaḥ ||<br />

sa nīḍeyacchāyā-cchuraṇa-śakalaṃ candra-śakalaṃ<br />

dhanuḥ śaunāsīraṃ kimiti na nibadhnāti dhiṣaṇām || 42 ||<br />

Mantra: raṃ raṃ rīṃ rīṃ<br />

42 (Attracting everything. Curing diseases caused by water)<br />

Hey daughter of the ice mountain, He who chooses to describe,<br />

Your crown, bedecked with shining jewels,<br />

Which are but the transformed form,<br />

And arranged very close to one another,<br />

Of the twelve holy suns,<br />

Will see the crescent in your crown,<br />

In the dazzling light of those jewels,<br />

And think them as a rainbow, Which is but the bow of Indra.<br />
