Lalita Sahasranama # 290

Sakalagamasondohasuktisamputamautika

1) Sakalasca te agamah (=vedah) sakalagamah tesam sandohah (=samuhah) = sakalagamasandohah, te eva suktayah, tabhih samputam (=putitam pratipaditam) mauktikam (=nasabharanam) yasyah sa tathoka

She has the pearl found in the shell casket composed of the collection of Agamas.
Here she is fancied as a pearl or with a pearl in Her Nose-Ring.

2) or the pearl indicates the nearest attributes, viz., Creation of the Universe, because when the scriptures describe the Brahman positively they use the method of approximation (Arundhatinyaya)
The Vedas describe her nose-pearl and not the real nature.

3) sakalagamasandohah eva sukitmayah samputah tatra mautika iva
She who is like a pearl in the samputa of the conch-shell, which is the multitude of all the Vedas
