Vijñāna Bhairava (विज्ञान भैरव)
अजरामरतामेति सोऽणिमादिगुणान्वितः ।
योगिनीनाम् प्रियो देवि सर्वमेलापकाधिपः ajarāmaratām eti so 'ṇimādiguṇānvitaḥ |
yoginīnām priyo devi sarvamelāpakādhipaḥ
The line
He goes to the state beyond age and death, possessed of the qualities beginning with aṇiman (अणिमन्). Dear to the yoginīs (योगिनीस्), O Goddess, lord of all the gatherings.
नेपालीमा
हे देवी, उनी अजरामर हुन्छन्, अणिमा आदि गुणले युक्त। योगिनीका प्रिय, सबै मेलापका अधिपति।
Where it sits
Minute-ness and the qualities that follow it are the verse's list. Age and death are what a (अ) takes off the nouns. The page stays with the sentence.
Split: ajarāmaratām (अजरामरताम्) + eti (एति) + saḥ (सः) + aṇimādiguṇānvitaḥ (अणिमादिगुणान्वितः) + yoginīnām (योगिनीनाम्) + priyaḥ (प्रियः) + devi (देवि) + sarvamelāpakādhipaḥ (सर्वमेलापकाधिपः)
