Adi Shankara, after having extolled the beauty of Jagadamba’s eyes, now moves on to poetically describe Her cheeks in the fifty-ninth shloka of Soundaryalahari. The divine Mother’s cheeks reflect the brilliance of Her circular earrings - the earrings and their reflection together resemble the wheels of Manmatha’s chariot, describes Adi Shankara.

Listen and meditate on this shloka set to the vibrant raga Desh. Learn how the inseparable union of Shiva and Shakti is reinforced through this shloka.
