नमस्ते अस्तु भगवति भवति मातरस्मान्पातु सर्वतः । सैषाष्टौ वसवः । सैषैकादशरुद्राः । सैषा द्वादशादित्याः । सैषा विश्वेदेवाः सोमपा असोमपाश्च । सैषा यातुधाना असुरा रक्षांसि पिशाचा यक्षाः सिद्धाः । सैषा सत्त्वरजस्तमांसि । सैषा प्रजापतीन्द्रमनवः । सैषा ग्रहानक्षत्रज्योतींषि कलाकाष्ठादिकालरूपिणी । तामहं प्रणौमि नित्यम् ।तापापहारिणीं देवीं भुक्तिमुक्तिप्रदायिनीम् । अनन्तां विजयां शुद्धां शरण्यां शिवदां शिवाम् ॥ १०॥<ref name=":3" />

Meaning: Divine mother ! Salutation to you; protect us '''in all possible ways.'''

Here, '''sarvatah''' may mean from all ie. from all dangers; but the commentator takes it, pregnantly, to mean sarvatmana, in all possible ways.
 +
 +
She, here, is the eight Vasus, the eleven Rudras, the twelve Adityas, She is the all-gods, (those) who drink soma and (those) who do not; she is the goblins, the demons, the evil beings, the ghosts; she also, beings superhuman, the semi-divine. She is sattva, rajas and tamas. She is Prajapati, Indra and Manu. She is the planets, stars and luminous spheres. She is the divisions of time and the form of '''primeval Time'''.

In these terms the Goddess is being proclaimed as the sole Reality. This passage may be taken as a formal comment on the Upanishadic phrase, sarvam khalvidam Brahma - Brahman being replaced by the Goddess.
 +
 +
I salute Her ever: Goddess who banishes distress Grants pleasure and deliverance alike, Infinite, victorious, pure, Shiva, Refuge, the Giver of good.<ref name=":2" />
