She pulls all the desires of Her devotees using this rope. Pāśa is a type of rope used to pull an object.
These Devi-s who assist Her are described in the next four nāma-s. These four arms represent Her ministers, through whom She administers. The physical appearance of Lalitāmbikā begins here. Kṛṣṇa says ( Bhagavad Gīta II.12) “If hundreds of thousands of suns were to rise at once into the sky, their radiance might resemble the effulgence of the Supreme Person in that universal form.” Caturbāhu-samanvitā चतुर्बाहु-समन्विता (7) She looks after Her devotees with great care and affection like a mother. From the next nāma onwards, Her physical form is being described. These forms and the associated red colour are for easier contemplation. Her supreme form is realised through mental worship. The prakāśa form of Her is said to be made of various mantra-s, the supreme one being mahā ṣodaśī mantra. She has three forms – the prakāśa form or the subtle form, the vimarśa form or the physical form and Her parā form or the supreme form. In the previous nāma Her prakāśa form was discussed and in this nāma Her vimarśa form is being described. Almost all the tantra śastra-s and ancient scriptures talk about Her complexion as red. The complexion of Lalitāmbikā is red as described in the dhyāna śloka of this Sahasranāma ( sakuṅkuma- vilepanām ). Lalitāmbikā appears as bright as thousand suns rising at the same time. Udyad – rising bhānu-sun sahasra – thousand or countless abh ā - light.
