[Guest guest]

kAmarUpini : The desire.

 

KAma, the supreme Siva. The Kamesvara is he who desires to create the

universe as described in the Sruti [Tai, Up., II. 5], "He desired, let

me become many, let me create beings" About whom the Br. Up., {III. 9.

II] speaks "He is the Person consisting of desire, it is He, O

SAkalya, who is His deity? He replied, woman is His deity"

 

Or Kama, at will, rUpa, forms - she assumes any form at will [ or her

forms are very agreeable].

She takes the form of Will -- icchA sakti -- to create the Universe.

Alternatively, She is the One who can assume any form at will.
