- श्रीमन्त्राक्षरमालया गिरिसुतां यः पूजयेच्चेतसा
- Whoever worships the mountain's daughter in the mind with the garland of sacred mantra-letters,
- सन्ध्यासु प्रतिवासरं सुनियतस्तस्यामलं स्यान्मनः
- at dawn and dusk each day, with good discipline, his mind becomes pure,
- चित्ताम्भोरुहमण्डपे गिरिसुता नृत्तं विधत्तेरसा
- in the heart-lotus pavilion the mountain's daughter dances with delight,
- द्वाणी वक्त्रसरोरुहे जलधिजा गेहे जगन्मङ्गला
- and in the lotus face-home, Lakshmi, auspiciousness of the world, dwells.
Daily worship with the matrika garland purifies the mind until the Goddess dances in the heart. Where she dances, fortune and world-auspiciousness are not additions but the natural fruit of her presence.
