Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 124: Shri Sarvani (OM sharvANyai namaH)


From Namam 112 to 131, we will see the devotion aspects in the Divine Mother worship

Sarva is another name for Lord Shiva. The Divine Mother is the spouse of Sarva.

We saw Lord Siva’s eight forms (Ashta Murthy) in Namam 112 “ Bhavani”. In his earthly form Lord Shiva is known as Sarva.

Sages who have learned all the sastras call the Lord Shiva, who is the foundation or essence of the earth. In this form His consort is known as Sukesi.

 Angaraka is the son of earth (Mars or Mangala or Kuja). Kuja means the son of earth (Ku is earth). There is an astronomical belief that Mars had broke off from the earth thousands of years ago. Separately, it is possible for Pandits to judge that individual’s success related matters on earth, marriage issues and being in uniformed services such as in defense and police units, could depend upon, the strength of Mars’ influence in one’s astrological chart.


All such earth related benefits for the devotees, are coming from the Divine Mother.
