Lalitā Sahasranāma ◆, Name 903 of 1000: कल्या · Kalyā

She is sound, unimpaired and always prepared, and the same feminine noun is used for the praise offered to her.

In the stotra the name is chanted as it stands, kalyā, as part of Shloka 167. In the nāmāvalī, the form used for arcana(worship with an offering at each name), it is turned to the dative, the case of offering: “to her”. Then it is framed by oṃ before and namaḥ, “salutation”, after.

Feminine of the adjective kalya 'healthy, ready'; Monier-Williams also records a distinct f. kalyā 'praise, eulogy'.

A single word rather than a compound.
