The Soundarya Lahari is not only a poem. It is a tantra textbook, giving instructions on puja and offerings, many yantras, almost one to each shloka; describes tantric ways of performing devotion connected to each specific shloka; and details the results ensuing.
Soundarya Lahari, meaning waves of beauty consists of two parts, Ananda Lahari meaning waves of happiness (first 41 stanzas) and Soundarya Lahari(the next 59 stanzas). It is believed that Lord Ganesha himself has etched the Ananda Lahari on Mount Meru.
These 100 stanzas are supposed to be the foremost among Manthra literature. It is also believed that by Making suitable Yanthras and reciting particular stanzas and worshipping the yantras almost anything can be obtained in the world.
"Bhruvau Bhugney Kinchid Bhuvanabhayabhangavyasanini
Thvadeeye Nethraabhyaam Madhukararuchibhyaam Dhruthagunam!
Dhanurmanye Savyetharakaragruheetham Rathipathehe
Prakoshtey Mushtau Cha Sthagayathi Nigootaantharamumey!"

Literal Meaning : O Uma! You are bent on dispelling the fears of the world! I take Thy two slightly bent eye-brows to be the bow of the Kama-Deva provided with Thy beetle-like pair of eyes as the bow-string while its middle portion is hidden by the nasal ridge, as if it were, the clenched fist and forearm of Kama-Deva holding it.
Mode of Worship : Yantra to be made on gold plate or holy ashes.Sit facing East. Chant this sloka 1000 times daily for 25 days.
Goddess of this Slokha : Shri Pratyangira Devi
Archana : Chant Lalitha Thrishathi offering red flowers.
Offerings: Cooked rice, coconut, honey and fruits.
Beneficial Results : Obtaining grace of God and all round success. Blessings of all gods and deities. Victory in all action.
