Sri Kamakshi Stotram (Brahma Krutam)

1.    Brahmā praises the Goddess — hail to the Mother of the world, Tripurasundari; hail to the auspicious, natural consort of Srinatha.
    2.    He salutes her as the ocean of compassion and the heroine of love; praised by siddhas and revered by yogic masters.
    3.    Repeated acclamations: she is the eternal World-Mother, bestower of worldly joy, praised for her snowy-mountain-like splendour and as Shiva’s beloved.
    4.    She grants the power over births, sustenance, and destruction — Brahmā offers obeisance to the gracious Devi.
    5.    She preserves the varna-ashrama order and destroys the sinful deeds of people — salutations to that power.
    6.    She is realized beyond ordinary scriptures and yogas; yet she is knowable as the Self that must be known — homage to her.
    7.    Secret Vedic and Vedantic wisdoms declare her as the supreme Brahman — Brahmā bows to that recognition.
    8.    She dwells subtly in hearts and is seen by none heedless — the subtle-knowing form is worshipped.
    9.    She is the focus of meditation for Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Rudra and Sadāśiva — the supreme meditative principle.
    10.    The practices, vows and devotion that lead to kingdom, wealth and fame are conferred by her grace — salutations.
    11.    The Vedas and the five-element vision are pervaded by her smile and presence — the universe is her expression.
    12.    As the divine enjoyer, she sustains the earth and provides for all beings — Brahmā salutes that bounty.
    13.    Her flame is knowledge itself: sun, fire and wind of wisdom arise by her command — salutations to the knowing power.
    14.    The twenty-five tattvas and the fivefold sheath of Māyā are said to be her domain — the Rṣis declare this truth.
    15.    She is the pure Shiva-Shakti, whose different unfoldings are revealed as the world’s distinctions — homage to that.
    16.    The guru, mantra, deity and prāṇa — these five together shine in her as conscious principle — salutations.
    17.    She is inner-self, supreme bliss, and remembered as Śrīvidyā — Brahmā venerates her as such.
    18.    Seers know all means of vision and conduct through her; she is the guiding rule of practice.
    19.    She manifests as jewel-like mantric medicines across the worlds — her teaching is the essence of revelation.
    20.    In every place, time and substance she appears in forms according to place and need — praise to her manifold presence.
    21.    O radiant one, source of auspicious virtues — proclaimed as the world’s transcending light; salutations to her.
    22.    Having sung and saluted the Great Goddess, Brahmā repeatedly bows and takes refuge — the hymn concludes in devotion.

Summary:

This Brahma-composed Sri Kamakshi Stotram is a compact, high-status hymn that presents Tripurasundari / Kamakshi as the supreme Brahman, the source of mantra, tattva and liberation. Brahmā himself praises her qualities — compassion, world-protection, scriptural authority, inner presence and the power to grant siddhi and moksha. Recitation with devotion and meditation on these verses is traditionally said to awaken Vedic-vedantic insight, steady the mind, and attract both worldly support and spiritual liberation.
