Meaning
The commentary: thinking it over, Līlā understood the goddess's meaning and said, as you call my husband's world made of the space of memory, so I take this world too; in its being made of memory, that world seen in samādhi is the example. She has reached the conclusion herself: if his world is memory, so is hers.
