|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
I shall surrender to the lotus feet of
Goddess Sri Neelasaraswathi, I have no shelter other than you, I shall prostrate before Goddess Sri
Neelasaraswathi who is the provider of all kinds of auspiciousness and wealth,
I shall meditate upon Goddess Sri Thara who is placing her right foot on the
chest of Lord Shiva and left foot on his thigh with a smile on her lotus like
face, her eyes are resembles to fully blossomed lotus flower, she carries
dagger , skull , lotus and sword. She is Vachameeshwari/ who is the provider of
excellence in speech, she is wish fulfilling creeper to her devotees, she is
the provider of Sarvarthasiddhi/Dharma,Artha,Kama, Moksha, she is the provider
of knowledge in the construction of Gadhya/prose as well as Padhya/poetry and various kind of
supernatural powers, her eyes are resembles to blue lily, she is the ocean of
compassion, she is the provider of
nectar like auspiciousness, I shall earnestly pray to Goddess Thara to
shower your auspicious gaze on us. Oh!
Sarve, who is majestic and decked in serpents as ornaments, she is attired in
tiger skin, her beautiful thin waist line is decorated with waist belt
ornamented with bells, she is carrying head of demon soaked in blood, her waist is
decorated with the Mundamala/garland made of skull, Oh! Bheeme, kindly destroy
fears in us. I shall surrender to the
lotus feet of Goddess Thara, even the Vedas are incompetent to eulogize her
glories, and she is not easily attainable, she is a great illusionist and
amorous as well, she is decked in
crescent moon on her beautiful hair locks,
she has ‘ Hum and Phat’ as Beejamanthra, she is Manthrathmika, she is
safe haven to her devotees, she appears in threefold, she is the mother of the
Universe, she appears as Sthoola and
Sookshma and beyond perception as well.
I shall venerate the lotus feet of Goddess Thara and it is available
only to the fortunate people with abundance of pities in order to obtain her
blessing, in this manner attain liberation from repeated births. Oh! Muktha/provider of liberation from
worldly bondage, Oh! Parameshwari/Goddess of the Universe, Oh! Thrinayana/who
has three eyes, she is worshiped by trinities, she is the female force of
trinities, she is worshiped by Lord Indhra and deities who were shoved in to
the world of Samsara, eventually they were attained liberation after the
veneration of her lotus feet. Oh! Matha,
deities get their marvelous crown packed with pollen while prostrating before
your lotus feet, thereby ensure triumph over enemies in battle, who are
swollen with pride would embrace their destruction, chanting your sacred names
will drive off all the evil spirits such as Bhootha, Pretha, Pischa, Rakshagana, Yaksha,
Nagas, Dhaithyas, Dhanava, Gachara, Vyagrah/tiger like wild animals, Dakini,
and dreadful creatures.
Whoever undertakes veneration of your
lotus feet would attain wealth and various supernatural powers like the power to win over multitude of elephants in the
battle field, whoever worship your lotus
feet would be blessed with virtues, beauty, excellence in speech, whoever reads
or listen to the above verse of Tharaka Ashtakam with utmost devotion during
the hours of dawn, noon and dusk and follow austerities would be blessed with
excellence in construction of poem, knowledge in all Shasthra, all their
desires would be fulfilled and remain wealthiest forever. The worshiper would attain fame, beauty and
imperishable wealth; ultimately achieve liberation from the repeated births.
