यस्यामोतं प्रोतमशेषं मणिमाला- सूत्रे यद्वत् कापि चरं चाप्यचरं च । तामध्यात्मज्ञानपदव्या गमनीयां गौरीमम्बामम्बुरुहाक्षीमहमीडे ॥८॥

Word breakdown

यस्यामोतं प्रोतमशेषं मणिमाला-
In whom all is woven and threaded through, as on a jewelled
सूत्रे यद्वत् कापि चरं चाप्यचरं च ।
String, both the moving and the unmoving alike.
तामध्यात्मज्ञानपदव्या गमनीयां
Her who is reached by the path of inner knowledge.
गौरीमम्बामम्बुरुहाक्षीमहमीडे ॥८॥
I praise Mother Gauri, the lotus-eyed one.

All existence is strung on her like beads on a thread. The path of adhyatma-jnana reveals that the one consciousness threads through every moving and unmoving form.
