This second Stabaka of Indrāṇī Saptasatī is a radiant meditation on Śacī Devī, Indrāṇī, as the all-pervading Cosmic Mother whose body is space itself. Śrī Gaṇapati Muni invokes Her inner smile to remove darkness and sustain all lights. The hymn begins with a prayer that the Mother may protect the distressed Ārya land, which is shaken by hostile forces, weak, and sorrow-stricken.

In these verses, Indrāṇī is revealed as the divine companion and power of Īśa in the creation and governance of the universe. She is called Māyā, the creative power of the Lord; Tapas of the Truth; Manīṣā, the wisdom of the Knower; Ājñā, the command of the Supreme Guide; Tejas, the divine brilliance; and Ānandarasa, the essence of bliss in effortless samādhi. Thus, the Stabaka presents Śacī not merely as a goddess of heaven, but as the living cosmic power behind knowledge, will, light, creation, and bliss.

A beautiful poetic vision follows: the Mother is described as ākāśaśarīrā, the one whose body is space. The sun shines like Her crown by day, the stars appear like flowers adorning Her at night, the moonlight anoints Her with cool radiance, and the red glow of dawn and sunset becomes the sacred beauty of Her face and feet. The whole sky becomes Her divine form.

The Stabaka also contains powerful healing and prāṇic prayers. The winds are described as Her breaths, capable of removing all diseases, strengthening prāṇa, calming sin, granting vitality, and removing inner heat and suffering. This makes the Stabaka especially significant as a hymn for health, vitality, purification, and inner strength.

Śrī Gaṇapati Muni then expands the vision to the entire cosmos. The countless worlds are like tiny hairs upon Her vast body. No one can count the stones of mountains, the sands of rivers, or the worlds that exist in Her cosmic form. She bears the universe while standing in the strength of Indra and is invoked to carry and protect the Āryas through the inspired wisdom of Vāsiṣṭha.

This second Stabaka is therefore a majestic hymn of cosmic vision, healing breath, divine beauty, and spiritual protection. It teaches the devotee to see the sky, the sun, the stars, the wind, the dawn, and the night as living expressions of the Universal Mother.
