Slokam-25. (Getting higher posts and power)

"Trayanam devanam thri-guna-janitanam tava Sive

Bhavet puja puja tava charanayor ya virachita;

Tatha hi tvat-pado'dvahana-mani-pithasya nikate

Sthita hy'ete sasvan mukulita-karottamsa-makuta."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Translation :

Tava - your

thri-guna-janitanam - Oh Sivaa ! (Sakti)

Bhavet puja - becomes homage

puja - homage

tava charanayor - to your feet

ya virachita - that made

Tatha hi - this is appropriate

tvat-pado' - your feet

dvahana-mani - supporting

mani-pithasya - of the gem (studded) pedestal

nikate - in proximity

Sthita - (they) stand

hy'ete - indeed these (gods)

Sive! - eternally

mukulita karot - hands held together in the shape of a bud

tamsa-makuta - cresting (their) crowns

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Tatvam of the Slokam :

Oh Sivaa ! that homage made to your feet becomes homage to the three gods born of your three properties. This is appropriate (for) indeed these stand in proximity to the gem (studded) pedestal, supporting your feet, with hands held together in the form of a bud, cresting (their) crowns eternally.

(Sakti is worshipped by Brahma and others. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion :

Consort of Shiva, The worship done at the base of your feet, Is the worship done to the holy Trinity, Born based on your trine properties .This is so true, oh mother, Because don?t the trinity, Always stand with folded hands, Kept on their crown Near the jeweled plank, Which carries thine feet.

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.
