O Beauty Queen! I am at your feet

I take refuge at the feet of the most beautiful mother Kalika, the wife of Lord Shiva whose eyes are sun, moon and cosmic fire, who dwells in the forest of the trees of lightening, refreshing like a cluster of clouds, whose hips excel the great mountains, who is attended by the heavenly damsels, who has eyes like a freshly bloomed lotus and who is dark in color like freshly formed cloud;
I take refuge at the feet of the most beautiful mother Kalika, the wife of Lord Shiva the three eyed one (sees the beings in their wakeful, dreaming and sleeping states) who dwells in the forest of the trees of lightening, holding a golden lute, adorned with a necklace of constellations, whose face is full of bliss due to nectar, who bestows mercy and glory through her radiant glances;
She who dwells in the forest of the trees of lightening, whose garland of milky ways shines on her heavy bosom, whose breasts are lofty like high mountains, who shines in the sacred groves by the grace of Lord whose cheeks are reddened due to inebriation, who is the abode of sweet song and sweet talk, by such an intensely blue splendorous goddess we are playfully protected;
I take refuge in mother Kalika, the spouse of Lord Shiva the three eyed one (sees past, present and future) who dwells in midst of the forest of the trees of lightening, always visible in the splendorous disk of sun, who lives in a subtle form in the heart’s lotus and is ever ready like a flash of lightning in the minds of sages shining with color of hibiscus with a crest jewel of crescent moon;
Between whose breasts there is an adorable golden lute with sound of eternal music, who is adorned with curly hair, who resides in a thousand petalled lotus, who could never be viewed by sinners of cunning intellect, whose eyes are reddened by wine, who has enamored the Lord, who is the daughter of Daksha the father of the stars, in this sweet talking divine mother Kalika I take refuge;
She who bears the first flush of the flower, who is wearing a blue garment of the infinite skies, who holds a bowl of honey of the springs, whose eyes are reddened with inebriation, whose heart is elevated by firm breasts, the black one with her disheveled hair, in this mother of creation, the wife of the three eyed one Lord Shiva, I take refuge and I pray for peace and happiness of all;
She who is anointed by dawn with a paste of vermillion, whose curly hair is anointed with musk by the goddess of night, who wears a soft smile, who holds the bow, noose, goad, etc., who fascinates the minds of people, whose garment is decorated with patterns of blazing flowers, who shines with a garland of hibiscus, on this divine mother I meditate at the beginning of my worship;
I worship Dakshina Kalika the mother of the entire universe, who is the spouse of Lord Shiva the three eyed one, whose hairs are done by her chamber maid Diana, who is the chaste wife of Lord Shiva, who is engaged in various talks with Sophia the goddess of divine wisdom, who is adorned with jewels by the goddesses like Aphrodite and Athena and who is served by celestial damsels.

In the mythological World of Goddesses and Gods
there dwels a seer, a poet, a lord of the Hindus'.
Now this Venkat poet, worshipper of Goddesses
has been revealing and giving divine passages to us,
an intricately complex yet refreshingly simple process.
The images you paint are breathtaking my friend. |

| Although your religion seems complex and difficult for me to understand, you always paint such an incredibly beautiful picture of the ones you worship ... when you are meditating it must be a wonderful place to visit ... sincerely Jan |
