"Other than that," visionary speech, being the expansion of the supreme, "has the nature of the creation of the mere individual parts beginning with Vāmā," because it consists of the nine divine powers beginning with Vāmā and ending with Śāntā; for that reason, that Mother—the creatrix called visionary speech—"has become ninefold," that is, has manifested as the cakra of the ninefold womb, which is the cause of the appearance of the cluster of divine powers beginning with Vāmā and ending with Śāntā. Here, in connection with the divine powers beginning with Vāmā, a little is stated: among them, Vāmā is called the generatrix of the universe because she vomits forth the cosmic manifestation residing within the triangular seat; Jyeṣṭhā brings about all auspiciousness; Raudrī dispels all diseases; and Ambikā is the divine power who bestows all desires.
