If you know "Shree Vachana-Bhushanam" by OM VishnuPad Pillai LokAcharya by heart (and I do) you should remember the Verse in which OM VishnuPad Pillai LokAcharya says, that mukta-jiva can be compared with Shreemati MahaLakshmi-Devi.
The sense is that jiva belongs to Chit-Shakti and in mukta-state she becomes a wife of Bhagavan Shree Narayana (though still remaining in the status of amsha, that is being not so Great as Shreemati MahaLakshmi-Devi).
Shreemati MahaLakshmi-Devi says about the same Siddhanta in the first Chapters of "Shree Lakshmi-Tantra".
Reading "Shree Bhagavata-Purana" this week I have encountered very unordinary Verse with the same Siddhanta. The Verse is truly the unexpected one, because it is from 11th Skandha of "Shreemad-Bhagavatam" and it is in the Chapter about Pingala.
Pingala says that she will buy Bhagavan Shree Narayana (the price of the purchase will be Absolute Prapatti from her side) and she will enjoy with Bhagavan Shree Narayana like Goddess RamA (Shreemati MahaLakshmi-Devi) does!
So the Verse (11.8.35):
सुहृत् प्रेष्ठतमो नाथ आत्मा चायं शरीरिणाम्
तं विक्रीयात्मनैवाहं रमे ऽनेन यथा रमा
And 3 translations:
✩A.C. BhaktiVedanta Swami PrabhuPada (ISCKON, link): "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is absolutely the most dear one for all living beings because He is everyone’s well-wisher and Lord. He is the Supreme Soul situated in everyone’s heart. Therefore I will now pay the price of complete surrender, and thus purchasing the Lord I will enjoy with Him just like LakṣmīDevī".
✩English edition of Motilal Banasirdass (link): "Bhagavan Shree Krishna is The Beloved-most Friend, Protector and the Very Self of all embodied beings. I shall submit myself to Him and enjoy myself with Him like Goddess Lakshmi".
What makes Verse 11.8.35 even more unordinary is that it reminds very much the story of Chanchula from "Shiva-Purana", please see this post - http://vishnudut1926.blogspot.ru/2016/03/shreemati-gauri-devi-and-sarupya-mukti.html
