Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 kAmadAyini : Fulfiller of desires The BrahmAnda Pr. Says, "Omniscient, she fulfils all desires through her aspect as the witness. BrahmA the grandsire of the world, seeing these doings of Devi, gave her the name kAmaksi and KameSvari" Or, she who bestows [da] KameSvara on her worshipper, in the sense of bestowing identity with Siva. Or she who destroys [ dya, to kill ] KAma, Manmatha [ the god of love] or kAmada Siva and ayini, endowed with good fortune; hence Siva endows her with good fortune; and dAya, inheritance, she whose inheritence is Siva – that ownership is hers, inseparably fixed from time immemorial.
