The Goddess loves Her dcvotees very much. She confers on them the

whole of Her own nature viz beauty, glory, righteousness, dispassion,

in fact complete sovereignty. She, like a mortal mother, fondles her

devotees like Children.

centre of the universe.

Being the source of creation and yet without a taint the goddess

is the most lovable and so the most beautiful. She as BrahmA comes out

of the BAbhi Padma of Visnu.

[ii] The naive of a wheel is the central power of all its spokes which

bear the whole burden of a carriage. Similarly the goddess is the

centre of all the universe. The speciality is that this center is

everywhere and circumference nowhere. Therefore SunAbhih.

[779] YAtanA : Who tortures even the hell.

The goddess is a terror for anti-divine forces which are so much like

tremendous strength, power, light. tapas and even knowledge of the

asuras. She creates tortures of hell and torments them. Indeed that

torture is She Herself.

egoism. cf DurgA Saptasati Chap III.
