Devi: The True Form

Woman is creator of the Universe, 
The Universe is her form, 
Woman is the foundation of the world, 
She is the true form of the body. 
Whatever form she takes, 
Whether the form of a man or a woman, 
Is the superior form.

In woman is the form of all things, 
Of all that lives and moves in the world. 
There is no jewel rarer than a woman, 
No condition superior to that of a woman.

There is not, nor has been, nor will be 
any destiny to equal that of a woman; 
There is no kingdom, no wealth 
to be compared to a woman; 
There is not, nor has been, nor will be 
any holy place like unto a woman.

There is no prayer to equal a woman.

There is not, nor has been, nor will be 
any Yoga to compare with a woman, 
No mystical formula nor ascetism 
to match a woman.

There is not, nor have been, nor will be 
any riches more valuable than woman.
