Her Feet instantly grant self-realisation to Her devotees! The reddish-hued One; The eternally Auspicious One; Consort of Sharva (Lord Shiva).
The very form of the four Vedas, that arose from the Vaagbhavakoota. She pervades the Universe as the Maya (Shakti) of Kamarajakoota.

One Who delights in Bhava, Raga and Tala; One Who grants all that Her devotees wish for; Mother of Subrahmanya (Lord Muthukumaraswami), Protector of devotees!
