कर्णेताटङ्ग तालीदलकृतसुमुखीं नील वस्त्राम्बराढ्याम्
लोकालोकसुरञ्जिनीं भगवतीं मातङ्गिनीमाश्रये ॥
Meaning:- Let us meditate on the Divine Mother Jagadrañjanī Mātaṅgī , who is adorned in dark garments and appears very beautiful, has well-rounded breasts and adorned with ear rings made of the tālī palm tree leaves (Corypha Taliera). She is playing the strings of the musical lute called Vīṇā in Her hands with mesmerizing musical notes with Her face turned towards the instrument in deep concentration. She captivates all the worlds with Her presence and may She offer Her grace upon us!
She is the holder of the musical instrument Vīṇā. This lute type instrument has 24 frets representing the syllables of the Gāyatrī mantra. There are four melody strings that represent the holy Vedas. Also, there are three drone strings on the side, that signify the three nāḍīs or spiritual channels in the body that facilitate the rise of the Kuṇḍalini. They are the central channel Suṣumnā, the right channel Piṅgalā and the left Iḍā. The stem of the Vīṇā itself represents the spine along which the Kuṇḍalini flows. The music from the Vīṇā signifies all the frequencies and wavelengths of the entire Creation. Her spiritually intoxicated state, is the highest spiritual state of super-consciousness. Her dark complexion or dress can be compared with the vast and infinite empty space and the state of pure consciousness alone. Mātaṅgi also represents the deep spiritually intoxicated state.
