2: Who is clothed by the directions; And (Whose severed Head) is joyfully drinking the nectar of blood flowing down from Her own Headless Trunk,
3: Who is having a Gem on Her Head which is bound by a Serpent; Who has three Eyes; And Whose Heart is adorned with Lotus,
4: Who is firmly standing above the tendencies of the mind to love attachments of the World (symbolized by a couple engaged in amorous love play) (signifying Her transcendental nature beyond the World); Who is to be meditated upon as having the bright Red colour similar to Hibiscus flower (due to blood streaming out).
