Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 138: Shri Nirakula (OM nirAkulAyai namaH)



In Namam 132 to 187, the Divine Mother’s Japarupam or Formlessness will be the described.

The Divine Mother is without any confusion and agitation.

Akula can mean as having confusion. Nirakula is without any confusion.

In a still and motionless lake, one can clearly see his image. However, if there are waves or the lake has become dirty, image is distorted and it cannot be seen. With the waves of agitation, one loses his happiness of senses.

The Divine Mother is in total calmness without such confusions. Though, She represents the universe of confusion, She is still without any confusion. For Her, as Her calmness is a benevolent experience. She appears to Her devotees as Nirakula, free from confusion.

Ignorance leads to agitation and sorrow. For a matured soul or a devotee with wisdom, there can be no sorrow. Such a person would have a free mind, without agitation from his profit or loss, victory or defeat, honour or dishonor.

The Divine Mother is established in Awareness; free from agitation, even while destroying the Bhandasura or later blessing him; while playing with Lord Siva or even when She is in unison with Him.  

This universe was created, stabilized and dissolved by the Supreme Self. The Divine Mother is behind all these.


Thus She is ever Nirakula without any confusion.
