Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 347: Shri Vimala (OM vimalAyai namaH)

In Namams 275 to365, the Divine Mother’s  many forms providing benefits to Her devotees in great details are discussed. 

The Divine Mother is without any trace of impurity. 

If something is placed among non-similar items, it will be identified as a waste. The balance of food, what we take in after the bulk of the food gets digested, comes out as a waste (shit). If such human waste is buried in the earth, it can enrich the land for other plants to grow. What we discard as waste is converted into useful things by the Divine Mother’s actions.  All wasteful things thrown into land are turned into useful fertilizer through the Divine Mother’s actions. Her actions are happening continuously. 

From our ignorance we produce waste in all areas.  The Divine Mother does not have such wasteful things in Her; there are no such impurities with Her. She is Vimala deity and residess in the holy place Purusottama Shakthi Peetam in the palace called Vimala designed by Visvakarma. The Divine Mother is praised as Vimala. 

Maya is an impurity which produces two kinds of illusions. One, it hides the actual thing to show as nonexistent. Second, it shows one object as another vice versa to confuse us. This Maya cannot affect the Divine Mother in any way to distract her actions.  

According to Puranas, Vimala is one of the scared houses; Visvakarama had designed ten such scared houses namely: Dhanya, Dhruva, Jaya, Manorama, Nanda, Nidhana, Sumukha, Vijaya, Vimala and Vipula.

 

  The Divine Mother as Goddess Vimala.
