As you totally destroyed the passions, you immediately “married,” as it were, the goddess of good fortune (in the form of omniscient knowledge; thus) you became the unparalleled enjoyer (i. e. knower) of the whole universe. (In doing this), you manifested to others (i. e. the oheists, etc.) the splendour of human endeavour. (6) [181]
आयुःस्थिति स्वामवसो (शो) पभोग्यां ज्ञानकपुञ्जोऽप्यनुवर्तमानः । प्रदर्शयन् वर्त्म शिवस्य साक्षाद्धिताय विश्वस्य चकर्थ तीर्थम् ॥७॥
āvuḥsthitim svām avas(s)opabhogyām
jñānaik apuñjo 'py anuvartamānah / pradarśayan vartma śivasya sākṣād
hitāya viśvasya cakartha tîrtham /17/1: Although now purely a mass of knowledge, you (nevertheless) waited out the duration of your life, which must be experienced. (During this period), for the benefit of the universe, you showed a direct path leading to the auspicious state (i.e. liberation) and thus established a fording-place [țirtha) (for crossing the flood of transmigration).(7) [182]
तीर्थाद्भवन्तः किल तद् भवद्भयो मिथो द्वयेषामिति हेतुभावः । अनादिसन्तानकृतावतारश्चकास्ति बोजाङकुरवत् किलाऽयम् ॥८॥ tirthād bhavantah kila tad bhavadbhyo
mitho dvayeşām iti hetubhāvah / anādisantānakrtāvatāras
cakāsti bijārkuravat kila'yam 1/8// Indeed, you follow the ford (that was established before, your time), and the (new) ford proceeds from you. Thus, there is truly a beautiful relationship of mutual causality here, like that of the seed and sprout, which has come down in a continuous tradition from beginningless time. (8) [183]
समस्तमन्तःस्पृशताऽपि विश्वं वक्तुं समस्तं वचसामशक्तेः ।। प्रत्यक्षद्रष्ट्राऽखिलभावपुजादनन्तभागो गदितस्त्वयकः ॥९।। samastam antah sprśatā 'pi viśvam
vaktum samastam vacasām aśak teh pratyak sa rastrā 'khilabhāvapuñjād
anantabhāgo gaditas tvayaikaḥ /19/1 Although you touched, within yourself, and perceived, by yourself, the entire universe, you nevertheless talked (i. e.' taught) only about an infinitesimal part of the aggregation of total reality, because of the inatility of words to express the whole universe. (9) [184]
