Sri Chandralamba Ashtakam

1️⃣ Salutations to the twin lotus feet of Sri Chandralamba,
the embodiment of supreme knowledge beyond attributes, seated on a golden throne, adorned with serpents as ornaments.

2️⃣ You are the formless and the formed,
the essence of Omkara, the Supreme Brahman shining as pure consciousness — the auspicious manifestation of Divine Power.

3️⃣ Your radiant face is like the moon, adored by sages;
You grant both worldly desires and spiritual liberation — O blissful Chandralamba, I bow to You.

4️⃣ O Goddess of infinite beauty and brilliance,
with three eyes representing Sun, Moon, and Fire — destroyer of afflictions, bestower of compassion, universal protector — I bow to You.

5️⃣ Holding the mace and discus, always gracious,
You are the wish-fulfilling creeper for devotees, embodiment of yogic consciousness and the three primal powers — O Chandralamba, I bow to You.

6️⃣ Creator and sustainer of the universe,
essence of the Gayatri, known through the Vedas, luminous beyond reach — foundation of all creation — I bow to You.

7️⃣ You are Mahalakshmi, Katyayani, Vedamata, Bhuthanatha’s consort,
Maha Kali, source of auspiciousness, and the great Queen of all worlds.

8️⃣ O radiant Goddess dwelling at the sacred Pithapuram,
ever-gracious, worshipped by devotees across the lands — may Your moon-like compassion bless all beings.
