[764] BhoginI : Who is the Real Enjoyer.

ALl enjoyments are enjoyed on the basis of the inner power. The DevI

Herself declares this in the DevI SUkta [a]. The Upanisads further

illucidating this say : 'He [she] is the Ear of the ear, the Mind

of the mind, the Speech of the speech, the life of life etc. He

shining all these shine; through His lustre all these are variously

illuminated. Therefore the true enjoyer is the Atman, the goddess

Herself.

Foot Note:

[a] According to Tantra SAstra, the goddess Tripurasundari is known to

grant easily salvation as well as enjoyment even while the maxim is

that salvation cannot be attained where there is a desire for

enjoyment.

'He' and 'She' in the contect apply to the same Reality which is

one. Also cf. Lali Sah. 293.

[765] BhogavallabhA : Who is the beloved of serpents.

[ii] Who is eager to enjoy Her own creation.

Serpents are the emblem of unpolluted beauty. The goddess has

adopted this form to bring splendour to Siva who otherwise loves to

live at the cremation ground and in seclusion only.

[ii] According to Samaya Mata it is the inseparable nature of Siva and

Sakti to be in communion. The goddess who created this universe is

eager to preserve it and also to re-dissolve it into Herself. She is

infinitely vast and contains all that is and that is now. PArvati is

eternally involved with Her consort Siva.

[766] SarvasAstravatI VidyA : Who is the true knowledge hidden in

scriptures. All the sriptures speak of the same Truth but interpret it

in different ways suiting to their understanding and the level of

consciousness which they have been able to reach, as it declared by

the Vedas. It is evident therefore, the Samvit Sakti pervades all the

kinds of pious books containing the knowledge of Truth.

Complete grasp of the Truth is only graced by Sri VidyA. Knowing that

there remains nothing to be known.
