In plain words
The term 'bhīkṛtam' is used here to convey the unimaginable majesty of Her true nature, meaning She who enjoys the sovereign delights of a supreme ruler. Om, bow to Her whose breath, fragrant with camphor-infused betel, sweeps across the horizons like a wave. She dissolves the stains of the dark age, Her eyes are wide and beautiful like lotuses, and Her form is pure grace. She is the silent witness of all deeds, the inner prompter of action, and the one who brings all actions to their natural fruit. (4) 'She who dissolves the stains of the dark age': The corruptions and spiritual darkness that inevitably touch human beings simply by their being born in this age of Kali are completely washed away when She is beheld, heard, praised, worshipped, or meditated upon. Furthermore, the dark age breeds endless intellectual friction—sectarian minds locked in bitter disputes over whether the Supreme Reality exists or does not exist, whether it is separate from the body, different or non-different, qualified or unqualified. These dogmatic battles, fueled by fallacious logic and distorted scriptures, breed anger, pride, and hostility. She dissolves all these mental distortions by granting the ultimate liberation: the direct, non-dual realization of Brahman. Thus She is called the destroyer of Kali's stains. Om, salutations to Her who clears away the darkness of Kali. 'She whose eyes are like lotuses': The word 'kañja' means that which is born of water, referring to the exquisite red and blue lotuses. She whose eyes hold the beauty of these lotuses is Kañjalocanā. Alternatively, 'kañja' refers to the cosmic egg of creation, for the ancient scriptures declare: 'In the beginning, He created the waters, and cast His creative seed into them...'
Close to the Sanskrit
The word 'bhīkṛtam' is a figurative exaggeration of Her nature suggested in this name, meaning She who has the enjoyments of a great king. Salutations to Her who has filled the directions with the fragrance of camphor-betel rolls. She who destroys the defects of Kali, who is lotus-eyed, who has a lovely form, who is the witness of actions and so forth, who is the prompter of actions, and who is the giver of the fruits of actions (4). 'Kalidoṣaharā': The blameworthy defects and sins that come to men being born in the Kali age by mere birth, She removes them when She is seen, heard, praised, extolled, worshipped, or meditated upon. Or, the manifold defects of the Kali age arising from the disputes of mutual disputants due to dogmatic attachment to their respective doctrines—such as the tolerance of mutual abuse, anger, and lust born of obstinacy in distorting the meaning of scriptures and using fallacious arguments regarding the existence, non-existence, body-transcendence, difference, non-difference, or attributes of the Supreme Brahman—She removes them in the form of liberation which is the means to non-dual knowledge of Brahman; thus She is 'Kalidoṣaharā'. Salutations to Her who destroys the defects of Kali. 'Kañjalocanā': Those born from water (kam) are 'kañjāni'; by the word 'kañja', red and blue lotuses are indicated; She whose eyes are those (lotuses) is 'Kañjalocanā'. Alternatively, 'kañja' means the cosmic egg (Brahmāṇḍa), as in the scripture: 'He, having first created the waters, cast His seed into them...'
