🛕 VEDIK GYAN

Lalita Sahasranama (ललिता सहस्रनाम), is a Hindu text from the Brahmanda Purana. The Lalita Sahasranama is the thousand names of the Hindu mother goddess Lalita. It is a sacred text for the Hindu worshippers of the Goddess Lalita Devi, who considered to be a manifestation of the Divine Mother (Shakti) and Lalitha Sahasranama was composed by 8 vaag devis (vaag devathas) upon the command of Devi Sri Lalitha. The 8 vaag devis are – Vasini, Kameshwari, Aruna, Vimala, Jayinee, Modhinee, Sarveshwari, Koulini. The Lalita Sahasranama tells us the truth that “One can worship Lalitha only if she wishes us to do so”.

The slokas are organised in such a way that, Devi is described from “Head to Feet” (Kesadhi Padham).
