Lalita Sahasranama # 93

Kulanthastha

1) Kulasyantah ( = matreyayoh madhye) (mitirupena) Sthita

She is residing in the middle of the kula

Kula, as explained, means the triad of matr, meya and miti. She is present between the measurer (i.e., matr, otherwise called perceiver) and the thing measured (meya). She resides in the form of miti, i.e., the measuring.

2) Kulasya (sastrasya) antah madhye (jneyatvena) sthita

According to this interpretation, the word kula means scripture.

She is standing in the midst of the scriptures in the form of the object of knowledge, i.e., jneya.
