60.11

lokānatītya lālityāl lalitā tena cocyate
trailokyasundarīm enām upayeme pinākadhṛk //

That which was drunk by Dakṣa, the son of Brahmâ, the knower of Yoga, became his daughter, known as Satî (Pârvatî). Pârvatî, owing to Her matchless beauty, came to be known as Lalitâ; and that paragon of beauty was afterwards married by the Lord Śiva. The very Satî is called the Goddess who gives bliss (Saubhâgyamayî), and also prosperity and emancipation. Those men and women who worship Her with devotion may obtain everything.—10-12.
