Sarvaśaktimayī (सर्वशक्तिमयी, IAST: Sarvaśaktimayī) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She who is pervaded by all divine powers”. From sarva (all), śakti (power, energy), and mayī (full of, consisting of), this name reveals Lalitā as the living sum of every cosmic force and divine energy.

Meaning, etymology & significance

The suffix mayī in Sanskrit indicates pervasion or constitution — something that is entirely made of, or saturated with, a quality. Śakti is not merely strength but the primordial creative and sustaining energy of the cosmos. Sarvaśaktimayī thus declares that every power that exists — from the gross forces of nature to the subtlest spiritual energies — has its source and substance in the Devī.

Sarvaśaktimayī is an exalted title of Lalitā Tripurasundarī and appears in Śākta tantric texts that enumerate the sixty-four śaktis as her emanations. The name Śaktimayī can serve as a more practical given name while retaining the essence of this epithet.
