"Meeting each other and embracing each other are aimed at bringing about the happiness of both the lover and the beloved. When this stage becomes increasingly jubilant, the resultant ecstatic emotion is called sambhoga." When awakened, sambhoga is divided into four categories:
(1) purva-raga-anantara-after purva-raga (attachment prior to meeting), sambhoga is called brief (saṅksipta);
(2) mana-anantara-after mana (anger based on love), sambhoga is called encroached (saṅkirna);
(3) kincid-dura-pravasa-anantara-after being a little distance away for some time, sambhoga is called accomplished (sampanna);
(4) sudura-pravasa-anantara-after being far away, sambhoga is called perfection (samrddhiman).
The meetings of the lovers that take place in dreams also have these four divisions.
