117. Bhaktasaubhāgyadāyinī
She gives marital bliss to Her devotees.
The word saubhāgya means, according to the splitting of Sau + Bhāgya, the bliss of the Śakti as manifested. The word Bhāgya means that belonging to Bhāga. The letter bha stands for space. The letter gha stands for the verb to flow; that which moves in space is the meaning of Bhāga. Time moves in space. It has the characteristic of flow. Interacting with the matter in time, She creates the cosmic drama.
The word Bhāga also means the sixfold aiśvaryas of Devi. These six aiśvaryas are all the experiences through the five channels of communication namely that of: sound, touch, form, taste, and smell and also the sixth channel of communication, the mind.
The mind becomes a channel of communication when it is in the receiving state or in the transmitting state.
In the transmitting state the mind is involved in thinking a thought or in projecting an image.
In the receiving state the mind is necessarily silent. It is rarely that both the functions co-exist in time.
Since Devi is not only the devotee, but also the entire cosmos, She gives the bliss of the experience of the Sadguṇa Brahman to the devotee. That is the meaning of saubhāgya, of communion of the Nirguṇa with the Sadguṇa, of the communion of God with the individual soul.
