Notes:
This song is in saptamI
vibhakti (locative case). The basic sentence unit (anvaya) is ahaM kamalAMbikAyAM bhaktim karomi
(I offer my devotion to the Goddess Kamalambika)
and all adjectives with the “yAM” ending refer to kamalAmbikAyAM.
The cakra for this song,
sarvarogahara cakra, consists of eight triangles. The five elements are akAsha
(space), vayu (air), tejas (fire), ap (water) and prthvi (earth).
The forms of speech are four
in number, according to the Indian grammatical tradition. First comes pure
sound (parA vAk), which then manifests itself to the speaker (pashyantI).
It then goes through an intermediate stage (madhyamA) of
transformation, and is finally being expressed verbally (vaikharI).
The eight shaktis, vashinyAdi
mentioned here are: vashinI, kAmeshI, medinI, vimalA, aruNA, jayinI, sarveshI,
and kauLinI. These shaktis are collectively called rahasya yogini-s.
The rAga name Sahana
appears as a mudrA in a slightly altered form as “shAnA” in the term “harIshANa”. |
