BhavAnI nAma Sahasra Stutih : 847, 848, 849 & 850

[Guest guest]

[847] UdIcI [dik] : who rules the North for bestowing prosperity.

Kubera is given the lordship of oceans, rivers and streams for

maintaining the treasures. By adoring the Divine Mother PArvati,

Kubera became the Lord of treasures and regent of the North. He

became friends of Rudra and chose KailAsa as his abode. The Mother

works Her grace through Kubera, the protector of the North.

 

 

[848] VidigdisA : Who is the intermediate point of the compass.

The central pivot between every two opposite quarters is the power

that controls all the quarters. This central force also is the

goddess herself as it is She who gives movement to all the quarters.

 

 

[849] Ahankrtih : Who is the ego in Jivas.

The I-consciousness possessed by every living creature makes it

stick to body and love of its environment. It is the little " I "

which creates false pride in a thing which is but a means and not

the end. It is the supreme consciousness that has by coming into

contact with ignorance, condensed into little fragments. That is too

be realized with the grace of the Divine Universal Mother. It is

ignorance born I-ness, a proof of nothing but our own existence.

 

 

[850] AhankArA : Who is the supreme I-consciousness.

The I-consciousness that aspires to its height and wants to merge in

the supreme source of purity and beatitude is the power of the

Divine Mother that is termed PUrnAhantA, the transcendent I-

consciousness where the Mother and the Lord, PArvati and Siva,

Laksmi and Visnu are one supreme bliss. That is termed monistic

induality in Sankara VedAnta, Kashmir Saiva and SAkta doctrines. It

is knowledge born I-ness that aspires to its perfection.
