विद्युदुद्योतवत्प्रस्फुरद्वाससं प्रावृडम्भोदवत्प्रोल्लसद्विग्रहम् । वन्यया मालया शोभितोरःस्थलं लोहिताङ्घ्रिद्वयं वारिजाक्षं भजे ॥७॥

विद्युदुद्योतवत्प्रस्फुरद्वाससं प्रावृडम्भोदवत्प्रोल्लसद्विग्रहम् । वन्यया मालया शोभितोरःस्थलं लोहिताङ्घ्रिद्वयं वारिजाक्षं भजे ॥७॥
I worship the lotus-eyed one whose garment flashes like lightning, whose form blooms like a raincloud in the monsoon, whose breast is adorned with a wild-flower garland, and whose two feet are red.

The Lord whose form flashes like lightning and swells like a raincloud is the luminous awareness that illumines the dark sky of the mind. Worship of lotus eyes and reddened feet turns the senses from outer show toward the beauty of the Self.
