Comparative analysis of commentaries and excerpts in English:

[antarbahi� sthitacakra dvayasya adhiṣṭātri śپ]

Śپ, in individual form (ⲹṣṭśī) of manifestation, is the commander through the vowel �i� (ś). In the aggregate form (ṣṭśī) she commands the sense of the same vowel. Thus in both inner and outer embodiments[1] she rules in her vowel (�i�) which equals the creative aspect starting from - and ī-kara of ṇḍ. Thus she commands the ٳ첹 and Arthātmaka Rucicakras.
