DAILY GODDESS DEVOTION – MOTHER OF THE WHOLE UNIVERSE
I call to mind the Mother of the whole universe,Who has created this world, both real and unreal, And who, by Her own power with its three guṇas,
Protects it, and having destroyed it, She then plays, Commonly is it said that Brahmā creates the universe,
Yet the learned in Veda and Purāṇā
Speak of His birth from the navel lotus of Murāri,
Although it is said He creates, yet He is Himself dependent therein. Even Murāri in the blossom of whose navel lotus, Brahmā was born–
Deeply sleeps upon his serpent bed at the time of dissolution.
Therefore Ananta with his thousand hoods is His support.
How can He who is Himself supported
Be called a leader in the creation of the world? Even the water of Ocean which is a liquid substance
Cannot exist without a container; therefore
I take refuge with Her, the Mother of all beings, Who exists in all things in the form of Power. Brahmā in the lotus,
Seeing that the eyes of Viṣṇu were closed in deep slumber,
Prayed to that Devī with whom I take shelter. So Mote It Be
