One should not mention (their) caste if men are worthy of worship by the lord’s Command. She resides within the sequence which is such and is the excellent worshipper of the divine Transmission impelled by the god. In the Śrīsamaya she is the teachers’ protector and, impelled by the awakened one, bestows liberation in the Śrīśāsana. [...]”.
