Slokam-14: Avoiding famine, dacoity and epidemic.

"Kshitau shat-panchasad dvi-samadhika-panchasadudake
Hutase dva-sastis chatur-adhika-panchasad anile;
Divi dvih-shatrimsan manasi cha chatuh-sashtir iti ye
Mayukhastesham athyupari tava padambuja yugam."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Translation of slokam :

Kshitau - in the earth element (of the Muladhara cakra)
shat-panchasad - fifty six
dvi-samadhika panchasad - fifty two
udake - in the water element (of the Manipura cakra)
Hutase - in the fire element (of the Svadhishthana cakra)
dva-sastis - sixty two
chatur-adhika-panchasad - fifty four
anile;- in the air element (of the Anahata cakra)
Divi - in the space element (of the Vishuddhi cakra)
dvih-shatrimsan - twice thirty six
manasi cha - and in the mind element (of the Aangya cakra)
chatuh-sashtir - sixty four
iti ye mayukha - those rays that are thus (disposed)
tesham athyupari - even above those
tav - your
padambuja yugam.- pair of lotus feet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Essence of Slokam :

Your two holy feet are far above,
The fifty six rays of the essence of earth of Mooladhara,
The fifty two rays of the essence of water of Mani pooraka,
The sixty two rays of the essence of fire of Swadhishtana,
The fifty four rays of the essence of air of Anahatha,
The seventy two rays of the essence of ether of Visuddhi,
And the sixty four rays of the essence of mind of Agna chakra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 Conclusion :

Your pair of lotus feet are even above those rays that are thus (disposed) :
fifty six in the earth element, fifty two in the water element, sixty two in the fire element, fifty four in the air element, twice thirty six in the space element, and sixty four in the mind element.

Sakti is both immanent and transcendent. Siva visualised as the relative of the devotee is immanent.

5. Mutual attraction between male and female:   Haris tvam aradhya pranata-jana-saubhagya-jananim Pura nari bhutva Pura-ripum api ksobham anayat; Smaro'pi tvam natva rati-nayana-lehyena vapusha Muninam apyantah prabhavati hi mohaya mahatam.        You who grant all the good things,  To those who bow at your feet,  Was worshipped by the Lord Vishnu,  Who took the pretty lovable feminine form,  And could move the mind of he who burnt the cities,  And make him fall in love with him.  And the God of love , Manmatha,  Took the form which is like nectar,  Drunk by the eyes by Rathi his wife,  After venerating you,  Was able to create passion ,  Even in the mind of Sages the great.
