Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 111: Shri Bisu Tantu Taniyasi (OM bisatantutanIyasyai namaH)

With this Namam 111, the Divine Mother’s subtle Mantra-Rupam description is completing.

The Divine Mother is delicate and fine like a lotus fibre.

The auspicious and beautiful Kundalini, the soul, is like a lotus fibre also. It is residing in the Muladhara like a three and half circled serpent. It can be described as a point of rice, saffron and coloured radiant object. It resembles an atom.

Like a lotus stalk, the Divine Mother (Kundalini) is very slim. She is very bright as a lightening. For the yogi, She appears like a lotus stem, a pure whitish cool slim figure.

When awakened in Muladhara, the Kundalini acts like a young girl waking up from her sleep. Once she realizes the reason to move towards Sahasrara for unison with Lord Siva, she acts rationally.

Close enough meanings:

Tantu is a fibre, a rope or a thin piece of flash like a tread which is connecting the nerve cells in a human body

Taniyasi is having a body or form.
