Guest guest Posted November 21, 2001 Report Share Posted November 21, 2001 54. svaadhina vallabhaa Salutations to HER who has HER consort, Lord shiva under HER control. This is the standard explanation given to this name. bhAskararAya gives this meaning and quotes few texts like the first verse of AchArya's saundaryalaharii and suuta samhita. He also adds that this name can be interpreted to mean that SHE helps women (those who worship HER) win over their spouses. To support this, there are quotations from devii bhaagavatam (book 6 - story of sachi and book 7 -story of sukanya). This name can also be interpreted (i think) as: SHE is the beloved of Lord shiva who has everything under HIS control. comments and corrections are welcome.
