Soundarya Lahari - Sloka 34 - For mutual liking

Sanskrit Text :

शरीरं त्वं शंभोः शशिमिहिर वक्षोरुहयुगं

तवात्मानं मन्ये भगवति नवात्मानमनघं 

अतः शेषः शेषीत्ययं उभयसाधारणतया 

स्थितः संबन्धो वां समरसपरानन्दपरयोः  

Transliteration :


sharIram tvam sambhOh shashi mihira vakshOruhayugam
tavAtmAnam manyE bhagavati navAtmAnamanagham
atah shEShah sheShItyayam ubhaya sAdhAraNa tayA
sthitah sambandhO vAm samarasa parAnanda parayOh

Meaning :

[ O mother!], in my mind's eye I see you become the body for the blissful happiness of Shiva. In your body with the sun and the moon as busts, I see Lord Siva. In His body surrounded by nine moats (that one must cross to achieve him, namely काल, कुल, नाम, ज्ञान, चित्त , नाद, बिन्दु , कला , जीवन् ) is your body.  Due to this reason, there is no differentiation between Devi and Shiva and the relationship between both of you  the relationship of 'the possession' and 'the possessor' becomes a perfect and eternal one and you become the essence of the perfection and eternity.

Pooja Vidhi and Proposed Result

If one chants this verse 1000 times a day for 45 days, offering honey and black peppers in clarified butter, one would be able to develop mutual liking in partners.
