कुरङ्गे तुरङ्गे मृगेन्द्रे खगेन्द्रे मराले मदेभे महोक्षेऽधिरूढाम् । महत्यां नवम्यां सदा सामरूपां भजे शारदाम्बामजस्रं मदम्बाम् ॥६॥
I ever worship Sharada, my mother, mounted on deer, horse, lion, lord of birds, swan, rutting elephant, or great bull, ever in Sama form on the great ninth day.

Riding every noble vehicle, she shows knowledge taking form through countless modes without being bound to any; the one goddess on Mahanavami reveals that the Self appears as many yet remains the single source of all manifestation.
