Soundarya Lahiri

Soundarya Lahari is a revered Sanskrit hymn traditionally attributed to Ādi Śaṅkara, praising Goddess Tripurasundarī or Lalitā. It combines devotional poetry, Śākta theology, mantra, yantra, and subtle yogic symbolism. The first portion is often associated with spiritual power, while the later verses celebrate the Goddess’s beauty from head to foot. The text is central to Śrīvidyā worship and devotional contemplation of divine feminine grace.
