Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 SAdhvI denotes that She is a lady of pure character. Some [including the Bhaskararaya version used in this Shakti Sadhana series - DB] divide the name as: [711] sAdhu: She is the certitude that the sAdhak is One with Brahman. [712] I: 'I' is the 4th of the 16 vowels. I = bindu = iM = the Sakti- Svarupa known as KAma-KalA. The three Sakti Pranavas all end with this iM, signifying that She is the essence of these three Pranavas. - Dr. C. Suryanarayana Murthy, Commentary on the Sri Lalita Sahasranama, 1962 , "NMadasamy" <nmadasamy wrote: > > > sAdhu : Well done. > > As we see burning, etc. to be the [inherent] quality of fire, only, so > parAhamtA is rightly said to be the [inherent] quality of Devi. > > > > BhAskararAya's Commentary > Translated into English by R.
