Comparative analysis of commentaries and excerpts in English:
[惭奴谤迟颈, 笔谤补办腻艣补 and 膧苍补苍诲补 Cakras]
艢补办迟颈 is shining in the three cakras, wheels or states,鈥�
- 尘奴谤迟颈肠补办谤补鈥攐f form (惭奴谤迟颈),
- 辫谤补办腻艣补肠补办谤补鈥攐f brilliance or lustre (笔谤补办腻艣补), and
- 腻苍补苍诲补肠补办谤补鈥攐f bliss (膧苍补苍诲补);
Or in the three 尘补峁囜笉补濒补蝉鈥�
- Agni [补驳苍颈尘补峁囜笉补濒补],
- 厂奴谤测补 [蝉奴谤测补尘补峁囜笉补濒补] and
- Candra [肠补苍诲谤补尘补峁囜笉补濒补].
She as the 颁补苍诲谤补办补濒腻, moon-light, assumes a body constituted by the 础驳苍颈办补濒腻 defined as Bindu, having 办补濒腻蝉 or rays shooting upwards and by the 厂奴谤测补办补濒腻蝉, rays of the Sun, of Pr膩na 厂奴谤测补, twelve in number, according to the order of the Gurus, the preceptors. 艢补办迟颈 is the Guru as well as the Devata in the 厂颈诲诲丑腻 state.[1]
Bindu lak峁峁嘺
碍补濒腻蝉 of 笔谤腻峁嘺蝉奴谤测补; 笔谤腻峁嘺肠补苍诲谤补 and Siddaugham in 弄谤诲惫腻尘苍腻测补 are detailed. 艢补办迟颈 in Bindu form (础辫补谤腻产颈苍诲耻) with twelve digits (Refer shloka 36) moves upwards as 笔谤腻峁嘺蝉奴谤测补 and illumines the 笔谤腻峁嘺肠补苍诲谤补. The 闯墨惫腻蝉 endowed with the 笔耻谤测补峁ａ弓补办补 (顿丑墨尘补苍辞办峁) are guided by 艢补办迟颈 herself acting as Guruparampara (the 厂颈诲诲补耻驳丑补-笔谤补办腻蝉补尘腻迟谤补 vigraha) in the path of enlightenment[2]. The creation of 惫补谤峁嘺蝉 causes activities in 闯墨惫腻 and helps the 闯墨惫腻 as his life force.[3]
