Posted by Mithra on July 22, 2011
Dear Mithraji,
The number 8 represents the eight elements of prakrithy ( earth ,water,heat,air,space,mind ,intellect,and ego).
( Refer Gita 7th chapter, 4 th & 5th sloka).
16000 represent nerves or 16000 modifications which is happening to our body.
So these are not physical wives, they are different aspects of our body or mind.
(Refer Bhagavatham (original) 7th skandam, 7th chapter, 22nd slokam.
