āpīna stana maṇḍalāṃ smita-mukhīṃ dhyāyed dadhatīṃ kramād vedair bāhubhir-āṅkuśāsi latike pāśāṃ tathā kheṭakaṃ ॥

श्यामाङ्गीं शशिशेखरां त्रिनयनां सद् रत्नसिंहासने संस्थां रत्न विचित्र भूषणयुतां संक्षीण मध्यस्थलाम् ।

आपीन स्तन मण्डलां स्मितमुखीं ध्यायेद् दधतीं क्रमाद् वेदैर् बाहुभिराङ्कुशासि लतिके पाशां तथा खेटकं ॥

Meaning:- Let us meditate on the Divine Mother Sarvasiddhidā Mātaṅgī , who is of dark complexion with a crescent moon on the crown of Her head. She is three-eyed and seated on a jewel studded lion-faced throne. She is bedecked with various types of precious ornaments and has a slender waist and large breasts. She has a beautiful round face and holds in Her four arms, an elephant goad (Aṅkuśa), a necklace mālā of pearls, a rope (pāśā) and a club (kheṭaka).

Her dark complexion can be compared with the vast and infinite empty space and the state of pure consciousness alone. Mātaṅgi also represents the deep spiritually intoxicated state. The jewel studded lion throne signifies authority and power. The third eye signifies an activated ājñā cakra and kuṇdalini. The goad removes obstinacy and laziness in us. The rope reins in lost souls in the quest of spiritual bliss. The pearl necklace can be compared to the string of alphabet mātṛika signifying all the vibrations in the entire Creation. The club can pound the stubborn karmas and liberate us with Her grace.
