Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 516 Shri Asthi samsthita (ōṃ asthisaṃsthitāyai namaḥ)

Namams 475 to 534 represents the Divine Mother’s Yogini forms.

 

The Divine Mother as Sakini yogin in the Muladhara chakra in four -petaled lotus. She is living in the form of Medhas (Bone Marrow) of living beings.  She is the presiding deity of the skeleton (bones) in living beings. Sakini Devi considers bones as Her responsibility as She had chosen to live in the bones of living beings. 

In a bird’s egg, there is no hardened substance. However, when the egg is hatched into a small bird, it has bones in it. Living human’s bindu when turns into a child, bone is created. In human body, citshakti is there for sensing purposes and jadashakti for nonmoving states. Skin and fat have senses. Jadshakti based bones have no senses. When the body grows, the bones also grow; broken bones can be joined together. So, there is little difference between citshakti and jadashakti in a human body. 

The body when used for pleasure faces the detriment, whereas the body used for penance or meditation starts to grow. The humans can convert their body as equal to vajrautha, a strong weapon. The bone can be strengthened with meditation. Sakini Devi is in the bone form.

 

The Sakini Devi is the Divine Mother in Muladhara chakra.
