It frames creation as arising from the Pati–Śakti dynamic: the Goddess enters the Lord’s divine sphere by his command, indicating that manifestation proceeds from Shiva’s sovereignty and Shakti’s productive power—an essential theological basis for Linga as the sign of the transcendent Lord who enables creation.
Shiva-tattva is shown as the supreme Pati whose mere word initiates cosmic unfolding; he remains the Lord (devasya) while Shakti operates as the generating instrument, implying Shiva’s transcendence and governance over the process of becoming.
