As the First Planetary Hour Ruler is Saturn and Mandasthu Sastamaya..................
Worship I the son of both
Destroyer and Preserver
Seated on the throne royal
Who captivates the worlds triune
Who indulges in Cosmic Dance
Vanquisher of enemies
I take refuge in Thee !
Harivarasanam Vishwamohanam
Haridadhiswaram Aaradhyapadhukam
Arivimardhanam Nithyanarthanam
Hariharatmajam Devamashreye

The Eightfold Verse about the Mother Divine
Like Socrates who said " I know nothing, not even my own ignorance", Sankara
was also known for his humility.
"I know not Philosophy, Literature or Science " , he says in his poem, Bhavani Ashtakam. I am
one of the worst beings and my only refuge is Thee ! Neither do I know how to donate, Nor Meditation transcendental Neither do I know Tantra, Nor the stanzas of prayer great, Worshipping is unknown to me , Nor do I know the art of yoga,
Thou art my only Refuge , O Mother Divine ! http://www.eastrovedica.com/html/eightfoldverse1.asp

Ashtapadi VII - Sa Virahe Tava Deena - Ode to the Lord
The Lord was pining
For his beloved Prakriti
He was observed
Sitting with melancholy
Grief due to separation
From his beloved Radha
Had devastated Him
Radha's confidante
Tells Radha's state of mind
To the Merciful Lord !

SlOkamyamunAteera vAneera nikunjE manda mAstitam

Asthapadi VI, Sakhee He Kesi Madhana - Ode to the Lord.
As per Indian Philosophy, the Union of Purusha and Prakriti, Being and Nature, brought forth the Universe. This poem is symbolic of the Cosmic Love, not Eroticism !
How strangely is my mind
Functioning, O friend !
Radha tells her confidante
I cannot get angry
With my beloved Krishna
Even though
He sports
With the Upanishads or Gopis !
Am I not Nature Personified?
I yearn for my Lord
That He may clasp
Me to His bosom !
I am perplexed !
sakhee hE kESi madhana - guNa kriya -

SlOkamgaNayati guNa grAmam bhAmam bhramadapi nEhatE

I worship Her
Who has a Terrible Form
As She is Time Personified
And Mother's Fourth Aspect !
