O divine one, (I who am) respected and called ‘Supreme’ in the Kula rite should worship you. Having worshipped the entire Wheel, endowed with supreme bliss, (I am) seated in the middle of it. O goddess whose nature is divine bliss, your nature possesses (divine) qualities similar to my own (nijasadṛśa). [...]”.
