Oh one worthy of adoration! Oh eternal one! he who constantly meditates on you, who is surrounded by the light rays of Anima and others generated from your own body, as the self, to him (the devotee) who considers the wealth of absorption into Siva as equivalent to (but) a piece of straw, the great fire of dissolution performs the ceremony of waving lights. Oh how wonderful!
(The devotee of Sakti considers himself superior to Siva.
