Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 28: Shri Manda Smita Prabha Pura Majjat Kamesa Manasa (OM mandasmitaprabhApUramajjatkAmeshamAnasAyai namaH)



The Divine Mother has a brilliant radiant smile. This Divine Mother’s smile radiance causes the (Kameswaran’s) Lord Siva’s mind to be disturbed with Kama. This has been captured in writing this namam by the assistant Devi.

Kaman is the Lord of desire or love. Lord Siva had vanquished or defeated thoroughly the Kaman. One of the names for Lord Siva is Kameswaran for destroying Kaman.

The beautiful Divine Mother rose from Yoga fire set up the Devergal seeking her help to destroy Pandasuran, the evil force. The Devergal decided to make her the (lady) Emperor. But before that her marriage has to be done. Lord Siva was the correct person to be her husband. But Lord Siva was having snake around his neck, Ganges River was flowing from his head and he was having the moon also on his head. The Devergal were worried under such conditions with Lord Siva to get married to the Divine Mother. The Lord Siva turned himself into a handsome young man ready to marry the Divine Mother. The Divine Mother’s radiant smile was up disturbing the mind of the handsome young the Lord Siva or the Kameswaran. The assistant Devi had captured Lord Siva’s mind disturbance well in this namam.

·       submerge: Cause something to be under water or something. Here the Divine Mother’s  radiant smile is submerging the mind of Kameswaran

·       vanquish: defeat or destroy thoroughly. Here the Kameswaran is vanquishing the Kaman.

·       Kama: Kama means "desire, wish or longing". In contemporary literature, Kama refers usually  to sexual desire.
