32. ekabhogA

She whose is the unitary enjoyment.

 

"eka" means kAmeshvara and "bhoga" means SHE enjoys. SHE enjoys HER

identity with kAmeshvara.

 

Ignorance and its cause are but one. They are different only in the

form of cause and effect. SHE rules them by conferring HER own reality

to them. SHE being awareness limited by mAyA, rules as the cause of

birth, preservation and destruction. "ekAkI na ramate tataH patishcha

patnI chAbhavatam" [shruti] - 'Alone HE does not enjoy, hence he

became husband and wife'. Here it will be seen that the single

awareness of its own will, has become husband and wife for enjoyment.

So, in essence, it is only single enjoyment, i.e., "ekabhogA"
