Madhu-Kaitabha Vadha

त्वं स्वाहा त्वं स्वधा त्वं हि वषट्कारः स्वरात्मिका ॥ ७३ ॥

tvaṁ svāhā tvaṁ svadhā tvaṁ hi vaṣhaṭkāraḥ svarātmikā

Translation

"You are svaha, you are svadha, you are vashatkara; you are the very soul of sound.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

"तुम्हीं स्वाहा हो, तुम्हीं स्वधा हो, तुम्हीं वषट्कार हो; स्वर भी तुम्हारे ही स्वरूप हैं।

Commentary

Brahma begins by naming the sacred ritual syllables: svaha (said when offering to the gods), svadha (to the ancestors) and vashat. The Devi is the power that makes every sacred word work.
