thousand names of lalitA: naKadIdhitisaMCannanamajjanatamoguNA

44. naKadIdhitisaMCannanamajjanatamoguNA

नखदीधितिसंछन्नम्ज्जनतमोगुणा

நக தீதிதி ஸம்சன்ன நமஜ்ஜன தமோ குணா

Through the brightness of her toe nails removes the dark character of those who prostrate to her

The brilliance of her nails outshines brightness of the crowns of the devas led by the trinity – this brightness drives the darkness inside them (darkness – ajnAna)

Similarly for those that seek refuge in her feet

Footnotes

1. dIdhiti: brightness
