Mantrininyastarajyadhur (मन्त्रिणीन्यस्तराज्यधुः, IAST: Mantriṇīnyastarājyadhur) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She who has entrusted royal governance to Her minister Mantriṇī”. Mantriṇī is the Goddess's divine counselor and commander Śyāmalā, nyasta means placed or entrusted, and rājyadhur means the burden of kingdom; the name describes Lalitā's serene sovereignty expressed through gracious delegation.

Meaning, etymology & significance

In the Śrīvidyā cosmological court, Lalitā reigns as supreme queen and appoints Mantriṇī (identified with Mātaṅgī or Śyāmalā) as her prime minister to govern the affairs of the cosmos. This name conveys Her quality of effortless, transcendent rulership—She is so fully sovereign that the very business of the universe can be entrusted to her divine ministers. It reflects the Tantric idea that the Goddess's will operates through a perfectly ordered hierarchy of śaktis.

This extended compound is a liturgical epithet suited to the Sahasranāma recitation rather than a personal name; devotees meditating on it contemplate the Goddess as the all-delegating, serene sovereign whose power flows without strain.
