Sri Kamalambika Stavam

1️⃣ I meditate upon Sri Kamalambika, the radiant goddess of Kamalalaya (Tiruvarur), adored by Brahma, Vishnu, and Lakshmi, whose lotus feet bloom within the inner lotus of my heart.

2️⃣ Worshipped by sages like Sanaka and by the gods Brahma and Vishnu, O radiant consort of Shiva — I offer my mind as a lotus for your divine presence.

3️⃣ She who shines in the northeast (Ishana) of Kamalalaya as the divine consort of Tyagaraja, is none other than Sri Amritā, the embodiment of auspiciousness for all beings.

4️⃣ The goddess dwelling within the heart-lotus as pure consciousness, seated on the lotus of creation, grants infinite joy and liberation.

5️⃣ O Goddess, the flame that burns away ignorance in the altar of the heart — accept my devotion as the sacred oblation in this inner yajna.

6️⃣ O three-lettered One (A+U+M), destroyer of sensory bondage, embodiment of immortality, ever worshipped by the sages — I bow to your lotus feet.

7️⃣ The syllable “KAMALA” derived from your left eye’s divine bindu represents the essence of the supreme power — the root of Sri Vidya.

8️⃣ The moon-like root mantra of yours, shining with triple brilliance, reveals the Guru’s very form and confers divine wisdom.

9️⃣ O Goddess of Peace, Pure Light, and Bliss, who abides within all beings — bestow unending joy upon your devotee.

10️⃣ O Kamalambika, whose sweet speech forms a golden garland of wisdom — may your lotus feet ever adorn my heart.
