Meaning:- Let us meditate on the Divine Mother Rāja Mātaṅgi, who is parrot green in complexion and adorned with precious jewels of all hues. She appears in a spiritually intoxicated state. She is wearing a garland of kadamba flowers. She holds a musical lute called Vīṇā and adorned in red garments. She is sporting a musk mark on Her forehead and crescent moon on Her diadem. She is wearing earrings made of conch shells and displaying a sweet smile on Her lips. She is the doyen of all arts and holds parrots on Her arms on both sides. She bestows Her grace and fulfills all the desires of Her devotees.

The marks on Her forehead represent the vibrant ājñā cakra, the Vīṇā and the musical notes represent all the sound vibrations manifested in the universe, that can be used for activating all the spiritual channels (nāḍī-s) in the body. The Vīṇā 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. The parrots are reciting the Vedas and all scriptures and describing the various forms of art, to Her listening pleasure. She is Mantrini, the authority of all mantras manifested in the entire Creation. The crescent moon represents the descent of the super-consciousness into energy and matter with the crescent representing the receptacle. The conch shells represent the amplification of the vibrations of the mātṛikā śaktis.
