In every Kalpa she is the great cosmic intellect, mother of wise men (ñԾᲹԲī�jñāninā� jananī parā). She is victorious always in the form of Siddhā, the bestower of Siddhi (achievement) and is Siddhi personified. Śiva carefully preserves the bones and ashes from the funeral pyre of Satī. Hence, you give your daughter, this gentle lady to Śiva out of your own free will. Otherwise she will herself go and surrender herself as his beloved wife. [...]�.
