(522) Paramaanandaa परमानन्दा- Immeasurably happy.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 252
Mother is Paramaanandaa because She is the giver of supreme bliss.

(523) Saavitri सावित्री - Creator of universe. the Energy of Brahmaa. Also energy of the Sun. Also energy of the purity and chastity. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 699

(524) Paraa परा - Causal and unmanifest form of speech. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 366 

(525) Pashyanti पश्यन्ती - Manifest form of speech. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 368

(526) Madhyamaa मध्यमा - Preparatory form of speech. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 370

(527) Vaikhari वैखरी - Finally the spoken form of speech. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 371
These are different stages of sound and speeches :
Though there are four kinds of speech, superficial-minded men do not know the existence and do not understand the working of the first three.
Thus, if one uses an expression as "He speaks from lip, tongue, throat or navel, it is not a meaningless jargon." Speaking through lip and tongue is most physical, that through throat is mental, that through the heart is emotional and that through the navel is causal. An outflow of love is sometimes stated to proceed from the navel. Speaking through eyes is not only communicative as through the tongue but is actuated by the desire of convincing.
It is the energy of the desire of the communication, that turns itself into the energy of speech. Some speak little and yet convey much. Some speak nothing and yet strike a much stronger hammer, than the vocal speech itself.
The fact is Vaikhari is not only the speech, and the lesser evolved forms are often more intense and more pregnant with energy. This explains how the heart speaks and the eyes speak more than intensely than the tongue.
Intense prater is often speechless and intense love is similarly speechless. Speechless repetition of Mother's Sacred name is, for the same reason, more effective than speechful.

(528) Manuvidyaa मनुविद्या-The Mental evolutionary Path to the attainment of Mother. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 238

(529) Chandravidyaa चन्द्रविद्या - The emotional evolutionary Path for attaining Mother. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 239

(531) Mahaavidyaa महाविद्या - The All Combined evolutionary Path of attaining Mother. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 584

Shree Vidyaa in the Holy Hindu Scriptures is described to be of twelve kinds, with regard to the differences in the methods of worship, by twelve principal devotees of Mother, who are Manu, Chandra, Kubera, Lopaamudraa, Manmatha, Agastya, Agni, Surya, Indra, Skanda, Shiva and Durvaasa.

The twelve different Vidyaas looked at from the point of the science of Mantras, are different sacred words, formula and are different permutations of the several sacred letters of the Panchadashaakshari Mantra.
Thus, for instance, Lopaamudraa's Vidyaa or Haadi Vidyaa is 

Ha ह, sa स , ka क, la ल, hrim र्‍हीं |,  Ha ह, sa स, ka क, ha ह, la ल, hrim र्‍हीं |,  Sa स, ka क, la ल, hrim र्‍हीं ||. 

For Mai-ists, Manuvidyaa may be taken to mean the science of attaining Mother through knowledge and Chandravidyaa through heart or emotion or devotion. Nandividyaa through service and Mahaavidyaa may be taken to mean putting into practice and realising the above Vidyaas.
According to Mother's Lodge Ideals, "Love all" is Chandra Vidyaa, and "Serve all" is Nandi Vidyaa. "Meditating on Mother' which means Devotion, is Manu Vidyaa, and "Self-surrendering and living cheerfully in any circumstances, in which one is placed", is Mahaa-Vidyaa.

(532) Shree-shodasha-akshari-vidyaa श्रीषोडशाक्षरीविद्या - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 587
The science of meditation of Mother, through the repetition of the Mantra of sixteen syllables, is this. This Mantra is obtained by adding Aim to the fifteen-syllabled Mantra and therefore runs as under:-
Ka क, e ए, i ई, la ल , hrim र्‍हीं, |  ha ह , sa स, ka क , ha ह , la ल , hrim र्‍हीं , | sa स , ka क , la ल , hrim र्‍हीं, Aim एें ||

(533) Trikutaa त्रिकूटा -Three-peaked or three grouped. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 588
The three peaks (of a mountain) may be taken to be Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh and She is the one mountain of which, those are the peaks. Kuta also refers to the group of the fifteen syllabled Mantra. She that is worshipped by three groups.

(534) Kutasthaa कूटस्था - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 896  Residing in the groups of the mountain. Kuta also means deception, ignorance, iron anvil and a multitude of universes. She veils Her own nature, none knows Her and therefore people are after other deities. She is firm as a mountain, in the matter of achieving the welfare of Her devotees. Her miraculous power is to be seen, in that She stands like a mountain, behind the shadow of a straw, and yet none is able to see the mountain. She makes Her devotees able to bear miseries and tyranny of the world, as on an iron anvil. She is the one, the unchangeable and the same, permeating and present during all the multitudes of universes. She resides even in the midst of deception and ignorance. This means that She liberates even those who are always full of tricks and deceptions and ignorance if they resort to Mother. If their surrender is sincere, She brings them back to the right path by a miraculous change of the outlook, angle of vision, and mentality.
She makes them pass through wonderful experiences and reclaims them as Her children, though wayward to start with.

(535) Vindhyachalvaasini विन्ध्याचलनिवासिनी - Residing in the midst of mountain. (Similar to above). ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 335
Considering the geographical situation of Himalaya and Vindhya, we may take the two Vaasinis(Residents of), to mean highest head energy and highest heart energy. This view gets support because Vindhyavaasini is again described as Nanda- Gopa-Grihe-Jaataa. Born in the house of Nanda, i.e., the energy of Blessed Lord Krishna, who was master of the hearts of the whole universe.

(536)  Saraswati सरस्वती -  Goddess of Learning, music and fine arts. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 704
This and the following names are more closely related to Mother, as Learning and Scriptures.

Saraswati presides over knowledge and is an ocean of knowledge. The name also means possessor. Vati of Saras, i.e., the stream of sense-impressions. She is supposed to be residing on the tongue of Her devotees. She imparts knowledge to Her devotees, but that is always parrotic knowledge. It is only when there is Divine Grace of the Finalmost Mother, that the true knowledge, with its bliss and power, dawns. Very often, the knowledge given by Saraswati, unaccompanied with Mother's Grace, turns out to be one that bewilders. Such knowledge deludes others, in the first instance, by its dazzling glamour and then the possessors of such knowledge, themselves.
Persons devoid of Divine Grace get confused, and the knowledge of non-duality, with the practice of love, service, devotion and self-surrender, which removes all sorrows, remains forever concealed from them, although they are extremely learned. Scriptures also form a labyrinth. One who enters therein once, does not find his way out, unless he constantly keeps his eyes set, on the Directing Mother, and strictly follows Her instructions, without any interference of his own will and wisdom, and with full faith. Scriptures should not be studied, without simultaneously doing all the needful, to be continuously under the showering of Her Grace. 
It is Grace, that makes all the difference. Rainwater is only distilled sea-water, and the most wholesome and pleasant dish is only a mixture of several ingredients, cooked together. It is Grace that fulfils the distilling and the cooking process. 

(537) Shaastramayi शास्त्रमयी - She, that is one with scriptures or She whose different limbs are scriptures.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 705 
From Her breath, often through Her realised devotees, mantras and truths recorded in the scriptures originate, though often understood or misunderstood. From Her words, flow poetry and dramatic speech. From Her throat proceed medicine and archery, and from Her heart, love and devotion deluge. 
What is meant is, that scriptures or scriptural portions, which refer to Mantras and truths, poetry and dramatic speech, medicine and archery, love and devotion, are all from Her and by Her Grace.

(538) Chatush-shashti-kalaa-mayi चतुःषष्टिकलामयी- ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 236
Possessing the knowledge and art of sixty-four sciences. There are several sciences and arts, treating subjects as under:-
The science of Letters, Reading and Writing different Languages, Religious knowledge, Poetry,Rhetoric, Drama, Magic, the art of Pacifying, Controlling, Attracting, Subjugating and Ruining others, the art of Nullifying the actions and effects of emotion, force, water, sight, fire, weapon, poison, speech and semen etc., the art of Training of animals and men, the arts of Divination through Astrology, Palmistry, Phrenology, Geography etc, art of Gambling, the science of Gymnasium, Cooking, Snake-charming, Hypnotizing, including deluding and stealing, Alchemy, Singing and Dancing, Diagnosing by pulse, the art of valuing Jewelry, the art of Disappearance and Changing Forms, Sizes, Shapes etc. 

(539) Nijaajnaa-rupa-nigamaa निजाज्ञारूपनिगमा- ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 287
Whose commands are explained in scriptures? Scriptures are the collection of truths which gives insight into the finalmost object to be attained, and the means and the practical directions for the attainment of the finalmost Beatitude and oneness with Mother.

(540) Shruti-simantaa-sinduri-krit-paadaabja-dhulikaa श्रुतिसीमन्तसिन्दूरीकृतपादाब्जधूलिका - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 287
She, the dust of whose Lotus Feet forms the vermilion dust, spread on the different pathways, formed by different partings of hair in the heads, of the deities representing different Shrutis and Smrutis i.e. parts of the Vedas.

This means that Scriptures-deities use the dust of Mother's Lotus Feet to serve as vermilion in the different hair-partings. What is conveyed is, that Scriptures personified as deities, not only hold Mother as Saviour, but they cling to the Mother's Lotus Feet, and place their dust on their heads, most reverentially and worship-fully. Scriptures also are incapable of expressing Her directly and describe Her by negation "Not this, not that" etc.
The negation can be poetically described thus: A prince who ascended the throne decided to find out his mother, who was reported to have escaped and remained incognito, to avoid danger from an enemy. Possible Mothers were being introduced to the prince, and he went on saying "not this, not that" till finally, at once there was a dead silence. There was the ceasing of even such words, as "not this" or "not that". Outside people concluded that the prince had found his mother.

Names 501 to 520

(501) Daityashamani दैत्यशमनी - Vanquisher of Demons. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 696

(502) Daityahantri दैत्यहन्त्री - Killer of Demons.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र ,नाम क्रमांक 599

(503) Raakshasaghni राक्षसघ्नी  - Killer of Raakkshasaas. ललिता सहस्रना स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 318

The difference between a Daitya and a Raakshasa is a subtle one. A Daitya or a Raakshsa is one of undivine tendency, but Daitya is so, not out of Ignorance of higher knowledge and occult practices, but out of a hereditary revenge to the Deities, or out of the passion of personal aggrandisement. In fact, Daityas often did much more severe and hard penance than the Devas. Even the art of Sanjivani or life-restoring was known to them. The difference between Deities and Demons can be well expressed by opposite pairs of softness and hardness, moderation and extremity, God in the long run and self in the long run. Mythologically , Demons and Deities are children of the same father but different mothers, viz., Diti and Aditi. They are the manifestations of the same force , but put to contrary uses and spent in contradictory fields of thought, desire and action. Raakshasa is only a species with inherent nature which is just the reverse of godly and divine nature.

(504) Veeraa वीरा - Valorous. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 899

(505) Veeramaataa वीरमात्रा - Mother of warriors.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 836
Veera also means chief among devotees. Veera-Dikshaa is one of the initiations in one of the schools of the old Shaaktaas.

(506) Dheeraa धीरा- Possessor of endurance and power in the battle-field. Dhi धी also means knowledge of non-duality and raa रा means giver. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 916

(507)  Swasthaa स्वस्था - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 914
Abiding in Her own Majesty. How is Mother ? She is in Her own majesty as ever, even in the battle field. She is not disturbed or anxious as to the result or agitated due to the arrows from the demons, etc. All these things appearing to others, as a matter for the most terrible consternation, are to Her merely a  sport, only of a different nature. 
It must not be forgotten that all such names are to be interpreted as indirectly referring to the devotees. Substitute "She whose devotees" for "She" and "Her devotees" for "Her" etc., as suits the context.

(508) Chaturangabaleshvari चतुरंगबलेश्वरी- Ruler of armies.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 691
Chaturanga means army consisting of four kinds of military arrays, viz., infantry, cavalry, elephants and chariots. 

(509) Vaarunimadavivhalaa वारूणीमदविव्हला - Perturbed by intoxicating liquor.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र ,नाम क्रमांक 333
This name and similar others are quoted by some followers of Hindu Mother, as a justification for drinking. In Sapta Shati there is a mention of Mother saying to the demon,"Roar and Thunder, you fool, so long as I have not drunk wine."
There are other interpretations that can be given to such references. In this particular name, Vaaruni वारूणी means belonging to the regions of Varuna वरूण, i.e., referring to Adishesha आदिशेष, the thousand-hooded serpent, who supports the world.
Avihvalaa अविव्हला means undisturbed. The name means "She by whose Grace and Devotion, the Adishesha is not fatigued, although crushed with the weight of the sinful world and responsibility of holding it intact, and remaining fully equi-minded. 

(510) Pashulokabhayankari पशुलोकभयंकरी - Filling the sinful with fear. The beauty is that the very same Mother, in Her same facial expression and attitude, and at the same moment, looks most charming to Her devotees and most terrible to the sinful. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 482

Who is a Pashu ? Pashu literally means an animal. Let the big talk about deep knowledge and no knowledge, go. In the ordinary walk of life, Pashu-ism has been increasing day by day, at least in India. Pashus are there, in best dresses, best speeches, quite in happy and royal conditions. Pashu is, as Mother's Lodge understands, one whose only life ambition is to get maximum pleasure, without any consideration of others and without least consideration, as to how he secures it,who proceeds only a few steps in the path of goodness and righteousness, just when he is in distress and again stops, who has no sense of gratitude or returning any good act, and no visualization of his own level and plane , who does not know the source of his true happiness, and has no foresight as to what will make him happy or unhappy, in the long run. In a word, Pashu is one in whose case, the only prominent note and the king of his feeling and thinking is "My happiness and my comforts and my conveniences and my desires, first." 
A Pashu has nothing like duty or a consideration of good or bad, or a consideration for others. He only fears the cudgel. Similarly, a man who acts well, only because of the fear of being scolded , dismissed, starved or punished or being rendered unhappy, on the withdrawal of assistance, sympathy, etc., is a Pashu. 
All men, to whom gratefulness and goodness are not known, who live in the satisfaction of senses, and who place their happiness in advance of that of others, and who have no hesitation to secure that happiness by any means, and at the cost of any other people , and therefore whose discriminative senses are blurred, are all so many two legged Pashus.
If man's gratitude to God is also getting less and less, he is similarly a Pashu. Faithlessness to God , guru, parents, husband, master, bread-giver, protector king, donor, patron, benefactor,etc., results mainly from placing one's own happiness above others', and absence of the idea about one's plane, fitness and gratefulness.

Let the class of Pashu-ism, which is largely on the increase, first disappear, and then the Pashu-ism in contrast of Pashupati-ism, i.e., Jiva-condition in contrast of Shiva-condition, be considered.

One well-known aphorism is this :

Eating, sleeping, fear and sexual enjoyment are common to human being and animals. There is one distinction between men and animals , and it is that men have Dharma (Religion).Those without Dharma are really animals. Dharma should be taken to mean Righteousness and Right-understanding in the first place , and thereafter,the technique of an individual religion.
If for your goodness, the other man, equally shows goodness, he is a man. If for one act of your goodness, he shows ten, he is an angel. If for no good act of yours or even if you have badly acted, one does good acts, he is saintly. On the other hand, as a result of more of the goodness of yours, more he sits on your shoulders, he is a Pashu. Those who act well and better, only on being cudgelled, are Pashus. Those who are ungrateful are Mahaa Pashus (big animals), as animals are generally, not so ungrateful as many persons.

Pashus are they, the Summum bonum of whose life and living is wine, wealth and women. The psychology is interesting to know. Jiva or Shiva, Pashu or Pashupati is a soul. The difference is in imperfection or perfection, ignorance or knowledge, desirefulness or desirelessness, etc.
All selves are characterised by three qualities, by existence, knowledge and bliss. The unevolved ignorant and the deluded, in view of their natural characteristics, want to live, i.e., to exist, want to be as much as they can, and to be as many as they can and thus they are naturally drawn to Wine (best bodily tonics nutritives and delicious diets), dinners, etc., to Wealth (means for getting as much as they desire) and Women (means for multiplication and fountain of temporary consolidated sensual bliss).

The difference in evolution is primarily, the difference in understanding. The higher soul wants to live , not by his own bodily comforts or through children, but love and fame, in people's hearts, by goodness, benevolence and useful service. He wants to be of a greater dimension by knowledge, for to him knowledge is power and superior to wealth. He derives bliss, not from women, but from devotional and spiritual living.
He does not desire to multiply himself by producing children, but by increasing the circle of devout followers of Mother.
The sexual energy in the case of higher souls is transformed into the creative energy, which enables them to create noblest characters and noblest institutes. 

(511) Durlabhaa दुर्लभा - She who is difficult to attain. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 188

(512) Durgamaa दुर्गमा  - She who is difficult even to be approached.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 189

(513) Dushtaduraa दुष्टदुरा - She who is far away from the sinful and wicked. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 193
Those who practice worship mechanically without practicing Love and Service to others, and self-surrender to Mother, which Dushta or wicked people can never do, never attain Mother, who is merciful and therefore just the reverse in nature.

(514) Shaantaa शांता - Mother is Shantaa, i.e., peaceful while She appears before Her devotees. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 141

(515) Shaantimati शांतीमती  - Mother is Shaantimati because She confers on Her devotees a mentality which leads to, and is creative of, peacefulness.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 131 

(516) Shaantyatitakalaatmikaa शान्त्यतीतकलात्मिका - Mother is the giver of the art of attaining peacefulness and going , beyond it, into the ecstatic bliss. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र ,नाम क्रमांक 853

(517) Shaantih शांतीः - Peace. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 447
Mother is peace itself. Peace or peacefulness is nothing of a man's making, Best balanced brains will get agitated in no time. Hence peace is Mother Herself. Peace is an effect and not a cause.
That which gives peace to a man struggling with the flood of his impurities, illusions and tossings to and fro, as a result of his actions , is something which proceeds from Mother, as Her Grace. This is Shaantikalaa, the art of peacefulness and mainly consists of realising one's inability to remedy any matters anyway, and renouncing oneself to Her, with unconditional self-surrender to Her Divine Will.

She that quiets down the soul. The disquietude is due to the agitation on account of the mental confusion. Duality is the cause of fear and loss of peacefulness.

(518) Padmaasanaa पद्मासना - Lotus seated. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 278
For the attainment of peace, Mother should be meditated upon, as Padmaasanaa, i.e., She that is meditated upon by Yogis. Padmaasanaa is a yogic posture, resulting in the gradual extinction of the delusion of Duality, which is cross-legged sitting with toes caught by hands.
Padmaasanaa means She, who is pleased with the most common cross-legged yogic posture, or who sportively likes to sit or stand on the lotus of  spirituality, on a lotus. The stalk of this lotus is divine knowledge, its filaments are the different categories and the leaf portions are prakritis, i.e., different combinations of fundamental elements.
"The Padma" also means Lakshmi, "sanaa" means distributing. Mother distributes wealth and prosperity amongst Her devotees of a particular class. Oh, Mother, with whom Thou art pleased, that man receives prosperity, carrying therewith, the enjoyment of supreme material happiness. His house becomes beautiful and is a house of relief and refuge to so many, and he lives therein, fondling his wife and children, and seeing that none returns from him, unsatisfied.

(520) Paramodaaraa परमोदारा -Taking the most charitable view.
Mother is Paramodaaraa, i.e., supremely generous. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 939 

Names 481 to 500

GROUP P

Under this group, the names dealt with, are with reference to the worship of Mother through Saptashati, popularly known as Chandi paatha.
Some of the names, akin to the names in Saptashati and Dash Mahaa Vidyaa to be read in the Lalitaa Sahasranaam are as follows :

(481) Maataa माता - Mother ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 457
Mother of all souls, of all mantras and all letters.

(482) Ambaa अम्बा - Mother. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 985

(483) Maayaa माया - Illusion-creator. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 716
The energy which obscures what is plain. She causes marvellous actions, producing unheard-of results, like dreams, miracles or juggleries. At one moment the universe looks flooded, at another, it appears desert-like dry. Once the moon is bright Full Moon, next to the same moon is a dark New Moon. The destroyer becomes in its turn again the destroyed. This is the Maayaa of the universe. Maayaa of humanity is previously explained. Mother is Mahaa Maayaa, i.e., juggler even to Maayaa, in the matter of Her devotees. This has been explained. Maayaa tries to delude the devotees, but Mother deludes Maayaa, making Her think, that She would be successful, but, in the end giving Maayaa a humiliating defeat.

(484) Mahaakaali महाकाली - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 751 
Mahaa means "great" and Kaala means "Time-Destroyer" or "Fate". She is called so because She is greater than even Time-Destroyer, and Fate.

(485) Mahaagraasaa महाग्रासा - The great devourer.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 752

(486) Mahaashanaa महाशना - The greatest eater, absorbing both the animate and inanimate universes within Her. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 753

(487) Umaa उमा - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 633
According to Hindu Mythology; Shiva's wife Paarvati is called Umaa because when Umaa's mother heard of Her determination to undertake most severe penance, refusing to take not only any food but even a fruit or a leaf, to get Shiva as Her husband, Her mother was shocked and shouted out, " Oh! do not."  U " उ " means Oh, and Maa " मा " means don't.

Mother residing as fame and brightness in all creations and energy of desire and essence of all mantras is Umaa the end and essence of Aum. Aum by a slight transposition, of letters , becomes U.M.AA. Umaa is the supreme experience, which destroys the noose of earthly experience, and is the best purifier, producing bright mental states and manifestations in so many beneficial forms. Umaa is the Ichchhaa-Shakti इच्छाशक्ती, the Energy of desire. Umaa is golden coloured and through meditation of Umaa, the devotee, as it were, receives golden currents from Her, which transforms the iron within him and turns him most precious, most dear and most unchangeable, and makes him proof to all atmospheres and degenerating forces.

There is a great psychological importance in the fact that She is desire. It is the desire which brings many things into being, maintains many things in position and finally brings salvation.

 The psychological emotions, which are most important in the matter of hastening evolution are desire, fear, hatred, relationship, love and devotion. All of these automatically bring about meditation and unification.
Through the emotion of desire, Mother is attained as a result of various experiences, leading one to conclude that the only thing worthy of being desired, is Mother. Through the emotion of fear, the devotee attains Mother by acting most obediently up to the requirements of scriptures, as a result of the conviction that every waywardness he indulges in is seen by Mother and he shall have to answer for all such indulgences. Through the emotions of hatred, the demons gained salvation much quicker than the lukewarm devas, the so-called devotees. But best of all, through the emotion of relationship, Mother is attained by establishing the relationship of yourself with Mother as Her child, however wicked, (please read theory and principles). Love and devotion are great sublimating forces, for the attainment of Mother.

(488) Shailendratanayaa शैलेन्द्रतनया Daughter of the mountain Himalaya.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 634

(489) Gauri गौरी - Having the colour of conch, jasmine and moon.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 635

(490 ) Paarvati पार्वती - The Mountain daughter. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र नाम क्रमांक 246

 Mother is at times extremely hard-hearted and in that sense, She is the daughter of a mountain- a rock, a stone. Paarvati is an ideal of chastity, and She is extremely severe to those devotees of Her, who are loose in their sexual behaviour and character, though of course, She is severe, with a view to give a tremendous moral lift.

No person should, therefore, be a special devotee of Mother in the Paarvati form, unless he is extremely staunch and firm and perfectly pure in morality. There are instances of devotees having turned lunatic, who had no control over their morals and worshipped Mother as Paarvati.

The same idea of exemplary chastity and austere celibacy is seen in Parvati's first son Kaartikeya. If any lady worships or enters a Kaartikeya temple, it is believed that she would shortly be a widow.

 Parvati is known for Her unbounded anger in cases of breach of chastity, so much so, that she has not desisted from kicking Her own husband Shiva, at the slightest suspicion of a breach of chastity.(Please vide Shloka 86 of Saundarya Lahari).

(491) Sati सती - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम  क्रमांक 820 

This is the name of Paarvati and means chaste and faithful spouse. Even in imagination, a true wife should not think of any other person as her husband or lover. When Rama was roaming like a madman after the loss of his beloved wife Seetaa,  Paarvati suspected if Rama, who appeared to be so much entangled in the love of his wife could be the incarnation of one of the three deities. So, She with a view to test him, took the form of Seetaa and approached Raamaa; but Raamaa at once bowed down to Her and said, ' Oh Mother wherefrom you here? Is my Lord Shiva happy?"
Parvati was stunned on being detected, and She had just the reactionary idea. "Even for the sake of testing Rama, I acted and personified as his wife. I am no longer, therefore, fit as a chaste spouse to Lord Shiva."
Extremely repentant and unable to bear the idea of her moral degradation form the idealistic plane, she left her body. In the Kshatriya dynasty, period-faithful queens died after their husbands in war, and they were called Satis. 
Sati means the energy which enables chaste wives to make highest sacrifices for their husband.

(492) Ganaambaa गणाम्बा - Mother worshipped by Ganesh, who is an emblem of determination and discrimination.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 719

(493) Kumaargananaathaambaa कुमारगणनाथाम्बा - ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 442 
 Mother worshipped by Kumaar the deity of war(Mars) and Gananaath, the deity of success. Kumaar psychologically means celibacy. The mother that is attainable by supremacy over discrimination and determination, and with the perennial reservoir of the most carefully preserved sexual energy. The highest and most efficient energy is the sexual energy, which can be utilized to do the most wonderful work. It is therefore why I have often most emphatically stated "Very little practical work can be done by institutes of selfish, self-contained, unenergetic, motionless, ever anxious, pulled out and child-producing people, of wise talk, no leisure, no work and no usefulness. ( Page 38, Theory and Principles of Mother's Lodge.)
Any institution that wants to do solid work shall be required to have quite an appreciable number of unmarried workers, of both sexes. The fright of unmarried life and the social, wicked and suspicious mentality about the unmarried life shall have to be wiped away, as soon as any such institute gains strength.

There can be nothing more foolish than to presume that it is impossible for a man or a woman, to remain chaste in the unmarried stage. There is nothing more suicidal than succumbing to a lifelong bondage of married life , for one who has the aspirations and capacities of higher life , of Service, Love and Devotion, simply because there is the fear or even the extremely remote possibility of a once-in-life failure in some accursed weak moment, or because there is no provision of  maintenance made by society, or parents or relations  or religious institutes.
When married life becomes selfish to the core , when none is free to consider, watch and serve the general weal and welfare, and when each married couple lives simply for adding to the poverty of the already half-famished populace of a country, unmarried life shall be welcomed as a boon to the individuals, who are out for Mother's work and society.
There are dangers, no doubt, of unmarried life as well, but no doubt, unmarried life is a boon to them that are really great and have a higher ambition and goal than that of sense-living and who almost dedicate their life to doing service to humanity. The Founder's first question to every youngster (thousands of whom have approached him) is, " Are you married? "
Mostly married people seek protection for being saved themselves, with absolutely no possibility of being useful to save others. 
In the opinion of the Founder, the salvation of India does not lie in political game-playing or warfare, but in the building of character, for one and all of the nation, through the religious revival in new form with the Mai-istic Life Maxims of "Love All, Serve All, Devote yourself to Mother (or Father) with unconditional cheerful self-surrender," sharpening the thirst for higher happiness which once tasted kicks out material happiness, through celibates of both sexes in thousands with their life dedicated to Mother of Humanity, their wide-spread religious education, under the guidance and the supervision of the world-renounced high souls (not diplomatic agitators) and through ample provisions by Religious Institutes for helping the poor and destitute, and through affording protection to the needy, etc. 
Those that have been suckled by Mother with Her breasts of nectar ever remain to be children, and as innocent of sexual pleasure as children. As an instance of this, Kumaar or Kaartikeya, who remained celibate, may be quoted. 

(494) Guhajanamabhooh गुहजन्मभूः - Mother of Kaartikeya, who is also called Guha. The word can also be taken to mean "Mother of Jivas ", as Guha means what is covered and refers to the soul, as it is covered by Avidyaa (ignorance).ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमामक 606

(495) Daakshaayani दाक्षायणी - Daughter of Daksha. We take it, also, to mean extremely clever in saving Her devotees. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 598

(496) Dakshayajnavinaashinsi दक्षयज्ञविनाशिनी -    ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 600 The breaker of the sacrifice of Her own father, Daksha. Daksha means clever and may also be taken to mean, proud of one's capacity position and powers. If you have every good achievement, but pride has not left you, all your best work of sacrifice gets over-toppled. Mythologically Daksha insulted his daughter Sati, by not inviting Her husband Shiva. She threw Herself in the sacrifice-altar and Shiva on hearing this, broke the sacrifice and the universe trembled, thinking of its fate, as a result of the wrathfulness of Shiva.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 600

Names 458 to 480

(458) Shaambhavi शांभवी - Mother of the devotees of Shambhu.ललित सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 122

There are so many names allied to Maheshvari, i.e., having the popular meaning of "Wife of Shiva".The Mai-istic meaning is "The Shakti or Power and Energy of Mahaadev". Some of these names are given here below. Maheshvari has been described as the door-keeper to the South and is the controller of wrathfulness or wrathlessness.

(459) Sharvaani शर्वाणी - Mother earth. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 124
Taking Shiva to be soul of Earth or rather Shiva's body to be Earth, Sharvaani is his beloved, and so it means, Mother Earth.
An average man has seldom thought of his indebtedness to the Earth. He is rich because of the gold from earth, he is a king because he has a large dominion over earth. He is white skinned or black-skinned because of a particular earth. He is the owner of mines, owner of lands and palaces, made of materials from the earth. He is created out of food and lives on food , which comes from earth, lives and finally lies on earth, and is in due course, reduced to earth. Dust he is and to dust he returns.

(461) Shreekanthaardhasharirini श्रीकण्ठार्धशरीरिणी  - Possessing the body of Shreekantha. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 392 
While the ocean was being churned, all the best things came out, and last came poison, which began to destroy the universe. Shiva then came forth to control it, and swallowed up all poison, and hence Shiva's throat became blue. Mahesvari forms that half body of that Mahesha or Shiva. The worldly meaning may also be noted that She is a true wife who shares the full miseries in all conditions and all circumstances.

(462) Aparnaa अपर्णा -Removing debts of Her devotees. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 754

She never remains a debtor to  Her devotees.

Apa means removing and rina means debt. Thus says one devotee, while making a claim to Mother as the mother,"When you have not discharged your debt to me, though I have been repeating your name, O Mother, why are you not ashamed, to bear the name of Aparnaa (The dis-charger of debt) ?"
Aparnaa means without leaf and is the name of Maheshvari because She made penance to get Shiva as the husband for centuries together, without taking even a  single dry leaf as food.

(463) Bhagamaalini भगमालिनी - Wearing the garland of prosperity. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 277

Bhaga means six attributes, the Scriptures state as under. The full supremacy (Aishvarya), righteousness (Dharma), fame(Yasha), prosperity (Shree), wisdom (Jnaana) and dispassion(Vairaagya), these six are called Bhaga. As per Kosha i.e. dictionary, Bhaga means supremacy, magnanimity, wisdom, dispassion, womb, fame, power, effort, desire, righteousness, prosperity and success in worldly concerns.
Bhaga-maalini is the name of one of the fifteen Nityaas, referred to in this group. Bhaga is also a female emblem and Bhagmaalini may be construed to mean the flower garland, made of the best that is appreciable in the fair sex, viz, mercifulness, innocence, a readiness of sacrifice, amiability,bewitching-ness, etc.

(464) Bhagavati भगवती - Possessor of the six attributes.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 279
As Mother wills, controls and brings about, the origin and dissolution of universes (Utpatti and Laya), as She is the Final Dispenser of the coming and going of  beings and as She is the bestower of Divine knowledge and the highest beatitude (Vidyaa and Uttamagati) raising Her devotees from ignorance and lowest position(Avidyaa and Adhogati), She is called Bhagavati.

(465) Rakshaakari रक्षाकरी  -Protector. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 317
She that protects Her devotees from miseries, temptations, sins etc. Rakshaa also means ashes, She that reduces the sins of Her devotees to ashes.

(466) Kaamyaa काम्या - The Desideratum.ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 321
Those who desire liberation and find that they are not sufficiently suited to follow the other routine paths of evolution, desire to approach God as Mother, whose Grace alone, is powerful enough to do the rest.

(467) Vardaa वरदा - Granting boons. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 331
Mother's hand is ever uplifted hand. She is the giver of the boons to all Devas, Daityaas and Devotees. As known to all, the hand is the instrument and emblem of giving. 
Mother's Devotees have stated, "Mother, Thou art an exception. Other deities raise their hands only when they desire to confer gifts, achievements, protection and demands. Thy one hand is ever raised. The order of happening in the case of Thy Devotees is not first their propitiating Thee and thereafter Thy permitting them to ask the boon and then Thy granting the boon. That ceremonious part is not there because Thou art Mother. Thou findest unnaturalness in all that procedure as Mother. Thou considerest that process to be a silly one as if Thou wert unable to know what Thy devotees stand in need of. What mostly happens is that Thou removest the cause of sorrow, pain and misery before they demand."

In Gujerat, there is a well known paradoxical saying, " Mother does not see the face of anyone hungry,". The explanation is, that as soon as the hungry person thinks of going to Mother, one gets one's food through someone. Similarly here too, asking and granting of the boon is dispensed with. What other deities do by hands, that is done automatically by resorting to Mother's Lotus Feet.

(455) Sampradaayeshvari संप्रदायेश्वरी -Fount and protector of traditional wisdom. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 710
Sampradaaya is the wisdom, regularly imparted by the teachers to the disciple; Ishvari means ruler. Knowledge is gained by reasoning, through traditions, faith in Guru and intuition. Mother tries to see, that so long as a particular school of religion with certain beliefs and practices of the divine path to reach Her, is not tainted with vice of greed, adultery, hypocrisy etc, it progresses with Her full help and blessings. The secret of success of the initiation ceremony and rituals should be , the intense devotion with which the Guru requests Mother to create a replica of all his powers, knowledge and wisdom to be conferred on the disciple. When however the Guru becomes the usurper of God's powers and the Guru's homages, when he gets deluded that the powers belong to and vest in himself, and when disciples attach more importance to rituals thdn to the actual faith and devotion (in and to God and Guru), the whole institute becomes a soul-less skeleton. Further, as by several leakages of vices the joints get loose, the whole frame work begins to crack, the vitality gradually vanishes, and the whole body begins to give a stinking smell like a corpse, and the whole institute finally gives way, by its own weight of sinfulness and weakness of perverted notions , ignorance and meaningless mechanical practices.

By Mother's Grace, as soon as one institute gets too old, another is brought into being. Mother is concerned with keeping up the religiosity of the universe and not with the superiority and inferiority of a particular institute or religion or the fame of an individual founder. That fighting and quarreling is all man made and meaningless and by half baked people, bigots or fools. 

(456) Sarva-apadvi-nivaarini सर्वापद्विनिवारिणी -Remover of all misfortunes. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 913
This name proceeds to show that, even if one falls while following one path or another, Mother removes all misfortunes, by compassion, on hearing them repeating Her sacred names. This is true , even in cases of those who have fallen as a result of wrongly following the Vaama Path and have already sunk into the most miserable state. It is true even of those who knowingly or unknowingly have misunderstood Her religion and even abused it.
The idea is, once you have enrolled yourself as a Mai-ist, with the belief of God as Mother, and the whole Universe being Her family, and the belief of securing your welfare by Universal Love, Universal Service, Devotion to Mother with unconditional self surrender, even though you may be deluded into hundreds of complications , and are pulled and plunged into viciousness, you will be saved as soon as the remembrance about your original belief, life maxim, and devotion with unconditional cheerful self surrender to Mai, returns.
This name is suggestive of Reclamation by Her on Repentance.
In the Kurma Puraan a reference is made thus, "Those who, forsaking attachment, take refuge in Me, and ever worship me with devotion, who have compassion on all beings , who are tranquil, self-controlled, free from envy, humble ,wise, ascetic, and who keep their minds fixed on Me , and live in Me, and delight in outspreading My mercy and glory, are blessed. It is immaterial , who and what they are. Their darkest ignorance , it is I who dispels ". Still further Mother states, " Those who are devoid of the above stated characteristics , but repeat my name, and are devoted to me , are blessed. I quickly destroy their misfortune, their Karmikc liability and sinfulness, even though in heaps and mountains, by the lamp of wisdom and fire of Grace, in the same birth".
In Harivansha, Vishnu says to mother, "The misery of men proceeds from death, difficulty, separation of relations, loss of wealth,etc. In all these misfortunes, it is Thou alone who protects."
In Varraha Puraana Brahmaa says,"O Mother, for Those who attain Thy Supreme refuge , no misfortunes or dangers arise. The wise also know the remedy, as to what should be done in misfortune . It is, that one should remember the Lotus Feet of the Mother."
"What does that remembrance do ?" " It makes even Brahmaa and other deities to help him, and completely fulfil all his desires , as Mother's Servants to the new surrender".

(457) Maheshvari महेश्वरी- Goddess of Mahesh, i.e., Shiva. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 750
There are two words in the list of names ,viz., Maheshvari and Maaheshvari. One name has proceeded.
For Mai-ists, the happy way of understanding distinctions of several names of mother, referring to the relationship of Mother and Shiva, is as under.

That power energy of Mother, which has created Brahmaa, Vishnu and Mahesh to be what they are, is Mother energy of theirs.
That power or energy which they enjoy, and a result of which, they are able to do their duties and maintain their positions is the Wife energy, where as that power or energy which proceeds to the devotees, on their propitiation, is their daughter energy. The meaning should be taken as  suits the context, but generally all the three conceptions should be before  the mind.

Thus the shortest name Maheshi may be taken to mean Mother Energy. Maheshvari may mean Wife Energy  and Maaheshvari may be taken to mean Daughter energy proceeding to the devotees. This difficulty does not arise in case of Vishnu and the name Vaishnavi, in the simplest manner, means the Power of Vishnu, the protecting power, without the complication of the wife or the daughter aspect as in the case of Mahesha. This is so , because Vishnu's wife has not attained that stage of accepted motherhood for devotees, as Mahesha's wife Paarvati, as stated in the introduction.

 Besides taking the innermost view, Vishnu or rather Krishna is more like Mother Herself, in the male form and Mahesha is the highest devotee or worshipper of Mother. While one of the names of Mother is HRIM, that of Vishnu is Hari. Between  Mahesh and Vishnu, the former is manlike and husband like and the latter womanlike and wifelike. While reading this remark, which contains view corroborated some times in scriptures and traditions, it should not be forgotten, that under Maiism, husband means the worshipper and wife the wholesale self-sacrificer.A Mai-ist should never harbour any idea of superiority or inferiority between the husband and wife, or the worshipped and worshipper.
