The meaning within

A small presence.
A profound meaning.

Śrī Śāstā is the ruler and bestower of desired boons — dark and smooth-bodied, with a high jewelled crown and curly hair.

अश्याम कोमल विशाल तनु विचित्र वासोवसानमरुणोत्पलदान हस्तम् ।उत्तुंगरत्नमुकुटं कुटिलालकेशम्शास्तारमिष्टवरदं शरणं प्रपद्ये ॥Dhyāna

I seek refuge in the Lord Śāsta, whose body is dark and smooth, whose form is vast and adorned with various garments, who holds a red lotus and boon giving gesture in his hands, who wears a high jeweled crown and has curly hair, who is the ruler, and the bestower of desired boons.
