Majestic Radiance^*
Vera Vandendries © [2006]

Enveloped within the thousand-petal lotus of our mortal crown,
The sovereign jewel of radiant light shines eternally and free of birth,
Experienced by sages to be the Ultimate Truth of rare majestic worth.

Of cerulean blue, yet cast in rosy and purple iridescent hues,
Ruled as supreme and guarded by regal empowered elephants,
The shimmering splendor is praised by devoted melodious chants.

Ancient people endowed with innate wisdom of the land,
And sensitive souls in tuned with the ethereal and mystical call
Name the luminous energy thee Goddess - Supreme ruler of all.

The origin of spiritual and worldly power her devotees bow,
The governing source of power for those who rule mankind,
Her supremacy is the foundation for saintly enlightened mind.

The wise one knows, the inner and outer wealth grow interlace,
Blessed are those who have been showered with your grace.
Oh Salutations! Goddess of Majestic Radiance
