Cluster of Saffron Flowers - Muka Panchasati



In the very first stanza of the Muka Panchasati, the kavi calls Devi as "Paracidrupa". The cit itself takes the form of compassion and Muka likens it to " kasmira stabakam", cluster of saffron flowers. Likening to a creeper than entwines Kanchipuram.
कारणपरचिद्रूपा काञ्चीपुरसीम्नि कामपीठगता
काचन विहरति करुणा काश्मीरस्तबककोमलाङ्गलता १॥
kāraaparacidrūpā kāñcīpurasīmni kāmapīhagatā
kācana viharati karuā kāśmīrastabakakomalāgalatā 1
