Devi Shakti - The Awesome Goddess Of Victory Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon

Devi Shakti - The Awesome Goddess Of Victory

Rating: 5.0


Devi Shakti! The awesome Goddess!
Full of glowing vitality,
Full of vibrant energy,
Divine manifestation of valour and strength!

Shakti shines brightly like thousand rising suns,
She glows with red brilliance covering the entire universe,
She creates the universe - a projection of her mind,
She shoots the five elements through the arrow of her mind.

Shakti holds various weapons in her numerous hands,
A trident, a spear, bow and the arrows,
A thunderbolt, a bell, a discus, a conch,
A noose, a string of beads and a pot.
She is blessed by Sun's brilliant rays of light,
A sword and a shield by the mystic hailed as Time.

Shakti has arrived seated on a magnificent chariot,
Sparkling with jewels like sapphires, emeralds, rubies,
Set to kill the evil demons - Madhu, Kaitabha, Raktabheeja,
Shumba, Nishumba, Chanda, Munda, and Mahishasura!
She is the Saviour! upholding righteousness, destroying evil,
Sensational and dynamic Goddess of victory and celebration!

So many heads and so many hands, everyone representing an unique property of the creator. Give any name to the creator but if it created all the best name can only be a mother. A poem to read and understand.
