Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 173: Shri Samshyaghni (OM saMshayaghnyai namaH)

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

The Divine Mother eliminates all doubts in Her devotees.

A devotee will have various doubts. The Divine Mother eliminates such doubts in the devotee and helps to get appropriate response within him or her. This awakening of knowledge in devotee is the Divine Mother’s (Guru’) grace which will be faultless.  

She eliminates the doubts and generously gives Her blessings even to someone who only questions without worshipping Her. This shows Her kindness.

Doubts of the devotee will not go away until he achieves the knowledge of the Self. This Namam interprets that the Divine Mother provides Self Realization to the devotee. With Self Realization, all three knots in Kundalini’s path to Sahasrara is broken whereby the salvation can be attained. All the karma bonds disappear then. Please refer to earlier discussion in Namams 99 to 104.

The one who is having the total wisdom clears others doubts. It is essential for the Guru to be beyond all doubts. The Divine Mother is such a Guru in this universe to remove all doubts in Her devotees. She brings them to the knowledge of Supreme Self.

She is Guru Mandala Rupini (Namam 713 which we will be seeing later).


She is worshipped as Samshyaghni.
