PURPORT
yunor ayuktayor bhavo
yuktayor vatha yo mithah abhistalinganadinam anavaptau prakrsyate sa vipralambho vijneyah sambhogonnatikarakah na vina vipralambhena
sambhogah pustim asnute When the lover and the beloved meet, they are called yukta (connected). Previous to their meeting, they are called ayukta (not connected). Whether connected or not connected, the ecstatic emotion arising due to not being able to embrace and kiss each other as desired is called vipralambha. This vipralambha helps nourish emotions at the time of meeting. Similarly, sambhoga is thus described:
darsanalinganadinam
anukulyan nisevaya yunor ullasam arohan bhavah sambhoga iryate (1) purva-raga-anantara-after purva-raga (attachment prior to meeting), sambhoga is called brief (sanksipta);
(3) kincid-dura-pravasa-anantara-after being a little distance away for some time, sambhoga is called accomplished (sampanna);
The meetings of the lovers that take place in dreams also have these four divisions.
