Translation
O Blessed One, you are Shiva’s body, with breasts like the moon and sun; I consider your self a pure, new self. Hence, the relationship of remainder and possessor exists in common between you two, equal in essence and intent on supreme bliss.

Meaning
The Goddess is Shiva’s body, her breasts symbolizing the moon and sun, embodying cosmic duality. She is a pure, new self (navātmānam), united with Shiva in a relationship where both are possessor (śēṣī) and remainder (śēṣa), sharing equal essence (samarasa) and supreme bliss (parānanda). In Śrīvidyā, this reflects the non-dual union of Shiva and Shakti, central to tantric philosophy. The verse emphasizes Shakta theology, portraying their equality in divine bliss.
