Comparative analysis of commentaries and excerpts in English:

[Sixty-four ղṇa Śپ in ṛṣṭi and ṃh]

Ѳṅg Śپ in her ūṣm form governs the forty-nine syllables (16 vowels and 33 consonants). She expands as sixty-four[1] rays while assuming the ٳū form in ṛṣṭi. She again deposits them in the womb of 𳦲ī Śپ at the time of involution.
