Translation

Verse 1

When, gazing at each other, embracing, and serving each other with love, the divine couple feet ecstatic joy, and when the personified deity of rasa becomes splendidly manifest in Their hearts, that attainment is called sambhoga.

Verse 2

Sambhoga is of two kinds: direct and indirect. These two kinds are again manifested in four ways: saṅkṣipta (brief), sankīrṇa (narrow), sampanna (fortunate), and samṛddhimān (opulent).

Verse 3

Saṅkṣipta-sambhoga occurs after pūrva-rāga. Saṅkīrṇa- sambhoga occurs after māna. Sampanna-sambhoga occurs after a short journey (pravasa). Samṛddhimān-sambhoga occurs after a very long jounrey.

Verse 4

Sampanna-sambhoga is of two kinds: āgati (planned arrival) and prādurbhāva (accidental appearance). In this way sambhoga charms the heart. Avirbhāva sometimes occurs in a dream. Then the samobhoga is indirect.
