Oh mother Kamakshi! It is you who performs the acts of Srshti, Sthiti, Samhara, Tirodhana and Anugraha by mere Samkalpa. It is you, the primordial Shakti, who destroys those sinners who transgress the rules of varNa and Ashrama. You cannot be known by Veda, Agama, Shastra or even to the greatest of Yogis. Known only to the highest of Munis through the rahasyAmnAya of Vedanta, you are described by such as Parabrahman. Though stationed in the heart of every being, you are unnoticed by all due to your presence in the form of the most subtle knowledge. It is you who is worshipped eternally by Brahma, Vishnu and Rudra.
Whose breath is the Veda, whose mere sight is responsible for the pancha mahAbhUta-s, whose smile results in the appearance of entire world
(charAcharAtmaka), due to whose order the earth is carried on his thousand heads by ananta, due to whose command Agni exhibits the quality of burning, to that Jnana Shakti, my salutations! It is thou who appears in the form of twenty-five Tattvas resulting in diversification. It is Thou, in the form of Maya, who is responsible for the puruSha (limited individual) through identification with five kanchuka-s (kalA, vidyA etc). (The reference here is to shuddhAshuddha Tattvas). It is you who is of the form of Shiva, Shakti, Ishwara, Shuddha Vidya and Sadashiva (Shuddha Tattvas).
It is you who appears as Guru, Mantra, Devata and the Prana. It is you, who is the Self of all beings, known as Srividya. It is you who is present as maNi, mantra and AuShadhi. Every spiritual discipline is for reaching you. You appear as time and space. You are the supreme Brahman transcending names and forms”.
