Ś𳦳 (शिवेच्छा) (Cf. Śaṅkarecchā) refers to “Śiva’s will� or “wish� and is another name for Śiva’s illusion (ś), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.2.—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] O excellent sage, once the three sisters (i.e., Menā, Dhanyā, Kalāvatī) went to Śvetadvīpa (white island) in the world of Viṣṇu for sightseeing purpose. [...] Helpless by misfortune and deluded by lord Śiva’s illusion O sage, the three sisters did not stand up. Śiva’s illusion is weighty and capable of deluding the worlds. The entire universe is subservient to it. It is also called Śiva’s Will (i.e., ś𳦳). The same is also called an action that has begun to fructify. Its names are many. Everything takes place on Śiva’s wish (ś𳦳). There is nothing to be pondered over in this respect�.
