She sits like Dakshinamurthy with same Chin Mudra, Japamala, Vedas. Generally Kanchi Kamakshi and Madura Meenakshi forms have Parrots. – The Destroyer Apr 01 '19 at 13:10

She is Sri Saradamba of Sringeri.
Dhyana Sloka of Saradamba: (which resembles Dhyana Sloka of Dakshinamurthy as Saradamba is feminine form of Dakshinamurthy)
मुद्रामक्षगुणं सुधाढ्यकलशं विद्यां च हस्तांबुजैर्बिभ्राणाम्।
mudrāmakṣaguṇaṃ sudhāḍhyakalaśaṃ vidyāṃ ca hastāṃbujairbibhrāṇām।

This Dhyana-sloka accirding to Tantra is of VAgdevi and VAhya-matrika. There is no mention of the bird – Apr 01 '19 at 13:25

And the Dhyana-sloka mentions Her as 'Trinayana' but here She has only two eyes! – Apr 01 '19 at 13:28

@Pratimaputra there might be another Dhyana Sloka. Even i don't know Dakshinamurthy form with Parrot, although there are 16 forms of Dakshinamurthy. – The Destroyer Apr 01 '19 at 13:29

All four hands except parrot and eyes identical.So these two i think are local alterations – Apr 01 '19 at 13:32

@Pratimaputra Looks like this is Dhyana sloka of VagDevata. http://aupasana.com/blog/2016/03/matrika.html – The Destroyer Apr 01 '19 at 13:41
