Śrī Mātā

The 133rd name of the Mother Goddess in the Lalitā Sahasranāma is Nirañjanā.

Nirañjanā means spotless, stainless.

When I sat with this name, an image arose in the mind. I painted it. That image is the featured image of this blog and is also below.

There is also a bhajan, a devotional song, Nirañjanī Nārāyaṇī, sung by Pandit Jasraj. You can listen to it here; this one is transliterated and subtitled by Swamiji.

You can listen to it quietly, with full attention. It has the capacity to move the mind into a state that is difficult to put into words.
