Those who seek the trunk faced Lord with red-coral like complexion and worship his feet with flowers without fail will be blessed with good speech (literary ability, knowledge), good heart (good thoughts). They will also have the favourable looks of the Goddess seated on lotus (Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth) and their bodies shall not be afflicted with diseases.

Wealth is knowledge, material and also good health. These are ensured if one is devoted to Lord Ganesha. The subject text begins after this four-liner.

O! Mother! Ever fascinating are Thy stories! The lovely swans in your ponds near your palace continue to practice the art of walking elegantly, though they miss the step and trip now and then. While you walk, the precious gem studded anklet bells generate jingling musical sounds. These sounds are perhaps, the teaching instructions of dance to the practicing swans. 91

O! Mother! The celebrities, Brahma, Vishnu, Rudra and Indra are functioning as the four legs of your resting cot (the world). Lord Parama Siva is the white lustrous pseudo blanket (sky) covering Your body. Though He is pure white and crystalline in colour, He appears red due to the reflected red lustre of You from underneath. With this red hue, He gives the exciting impression as if he is the manifestation of Sringara rasa. 92

That is the reason surely, evens the celestials such as Indra etc., though endowed with matchless super human powers, are made to stay near the gates of your palace with no permission to be admitted in side. 95

Some how, with acquisition of wealth of all sorts, who does not become Lakshmi pati (lord of the goddess of wealth)? But, Mother, You are truly the Sati indeed! Your heart is only adored by Maha Deva. None can ever boast of being intimate to You - not even the inanimate Kuravaka (gorinta) tree. There is only one Parvati pati. 96

O! Bhagavati! Thou art the origin of all speech! This hymn praising Your glories is done by your own words. This is like the performance of Harati (the oblation of lights) with the flame of a lamp to the Sun God; or the performance of Arghyam (oblation of sweet juice) with cool drops of water from marble stone to the Moon; or like performing Tarpanam (oblation of water) to the ocean with its own waters. Thou art the whole & part too! I am insignificant.

O! Mother! Manmadha, fighting with his five flower arrows, hopelessly lost the battle with Siva. With a master plan to some how defeat Lord Siva, he then assuredly made your two ankles as his quivers to house double the number (ten) of arrows within. Your ten digits of the feet are made the ten arrows. The tips of your nails, sharpened due to constant friction on the whetstones of the crowns of all celestials (bowing at your feet), are used by him as the arrow heads. (Should we say who won the battle with this special equipment?) 83

He is, perhaps, envious on the Asoka trees in the celestial garden of Joy, because your feet frequent that place. This pair of feet is brilliantly lustrous with the red lac dye.

O! Mother! When Siva (teasingly) called You names, You pretended anger and suddenly with drew yourself. In the process your lotus foot touched the fore head of the Lord who is apologizing to you. At that time, in the jingling sounds of your anklet bells, one hears the sounds of joy made by Manmadha, who after a long wait finally, thinks he could settle scores with Siva who annihilated him. (This is as if you have struck the Lord intentionally with your foot.) 86

O! Mother! Thy feet lotuses are capable of residing on the deadly snow mountains. They are ever open (to the needy), be it at night, in sleep or in small hours of the day. They bestow in time all prosperity to the seeker. In every aspect, thus, they triumph over the so called lotus flowers (they perish in snow, they are closed at night, and they are only a passive abode of Lakshmi.) Where is any wonder in this? 87

O! Mother! Your fore-foot is the abode of fame, it is free (makes us free) from all calamity. Such a tender one – How did the wise poets equate it to the hard shell of a tortoise? – How did Lord Sankara place it, mercilessly (He is acknowledged for his merciful heart!), on the hard millstone at the time of marriage, having appreciated it (its tenderness) with his hands. 88

O Mother! Chandeeswari! Your gleaming moon like toe nails cause closure of the lotus hands of all divine ladies (They are praying at your feet). Your toe nails instantly grant ever lasting prosperity, safety and security to the impoverished. The much celebrated celestial trees (kalpa vriksham etc.,) give desired fruits through their tender tips of their shoot like hands. Thus, Thy nails are shiny as though smiling with superiority. 89

O! Mother! I strongly intend to surrender my life, composed of my mind and my five sense organs, to your lotus feet and be drowned in that lotus for ever, like a six legged insect (bee). Thy feet are the auspicious floral bouquet from the Kalpaka tree. They dole out the honey of prosperity in their bunch of beautiful flowers. Thy feet incessantly grant what all that is desired by the poor and miserable souls. 90
