- Standing in the Sri Chakra blazing with the sun-disc marked by the deer,
- बालार्कद्युतिभासुरां करतलैः पाशाङ्कुशौ बिभ्रतीम्
- splendid with young-sun radiance, holding noose and goad in her palms,
- चापं बाणमपि प्रसन्नवदनां कौसुम्भवस्त्रान्वितां
- also bow and arrow, of gracious face, clothed in saffron silk,
- तां त्वां चन्द्रकलावतम्समकुटां चारुस्मितां भावये

She who stands in the Sri Chakra is the power that governs the universe from its geometric centre. Meditating her weapons and smile together, the devotee holds both discipline and grace in one vision.
