Meaning
Another commentary: below the stalk, the asura women, tender in pleasure, are the creeper of the lotus stem, the seed of the beings of the nether world; and the heart of the lotus, reached by them, is the great seed, Meru and the other mountains, the life of the world. A difficult verse, built entirely of the lotus image.
