Telugu-Vigananam keeps its printed spellings, hyphens, and variant readings; the English follows the base Sanskrit unless a note explains a difference.

04 / DETAILED MEANINGShownHidden
How the verse unfolds.
The first statement identifies worship at her feet with worship of the three gods arising from the three guṇas. The relation is then made visible rather than left abstract.
The gods stand beside the jewelled support for her feet, their folded hands raised above their crowns. Their posture explains why the one act of worship can encompass them: the scene places their own reverence within hers. The three remain distinct participants in the same act.
