75

Sanskrit:

विश्वाधिका वेदवेद्या विन्ध्याचलनिवासिनी ।
विधात्री वेदजननी विष्णुमाया विलासिनी ॥ ७५ ॥

English:

viśvādhikā vēdavēdyā vindhyācalanivāsinī |
vidhātrī vēdajananī viṣṇumāyā vilāsinī ॥ 75 ॥

Tamil:

விஶ்வாதி⁴கா வேத³வேத்³யா விந்த்⁴யாசலநிவாஸினீ ।
விதா⁴த்ரீ வேத³ஜனனீ விஷ்ணுமாயா விலாஸினீ ॥ 75 ॥

Meaning:

The Supreme Reality beyond the universe (viśvādhikā), yet also the very truth that the Vedas seek to reveal (vēdavēdyā). She is both transcendent and accessible through sacred knowledge.

As Vindhyācalanivāsinī, She manifests in sacred places, blessing devotees through tangible forms of worship. As Vidhātrī, She governs creation and cosmic order, while as Vēdajananī, She is the source of all spiritual wisdom and revelation.

Through Viṣṇumāyā, She becomes the divine power that sustains and governs the universe, and as Vilāsinī, She joyfully engages in the cosmic play of creation, preservation, and transformation.

Meditation:

This verse beautifully balances transcendence and immanence.

As Viśvādhikā, Lalitā reminds us that the Divine is infinitely beyond the limits of the universe and the mind. Yet as Vēdavēdyā, She assures us that sincere spiritual seeking can lead us toward that truth.

Meditate on Her as Vēdajananī when seeking wisdom, understanding, and spiritual clarity. Every genuine insight is a ray of Her light.

As Viṣṇumāyā Vilāsinī, She teaches that the world is neither meaningless nor separate from the Divine. Life itself is Her sacred play (līlā), and every experience—joyful or challenging—can become a step toward awakening.

This verse invites us to remember:

The Mother is beyond the universe, yet present within it; beyond knowledge, yet the source of all wisdom; beyond creation, yet joyfully expressing Herself through every aspect of existence.
