 Tantrāloka (Tantraloka): Глава 4 - строфы 151-279 - Недвойственный Кашмирский Шиваизм

Śāktopāyaḥ - «Метод Шакти [Śāktopāya]»


 Вступление

photo 30 - sunset in IndiaThis is the second and last set of stanzas (from the stanza 151 to the stanza 294) of the fourth chapter (called Śāktopāyaḥ).

This work was written by the great Master Abhinavagupta and is a compendium of Tantra in all its facets. Tantrāloka is the most important and voluminous work of the greatest Trika Master. Abhinavagupta was also the teacher of eminent Kṣemarāja and lived about 975-1025 AD in Kashmir.

This treatise whose name is Tantrāloka is a complete encyclopedia of Tantra. Since it is a very advanced text in Trika Shaivism, there is no surprise if a neophyte finds it difficult to understand. To start to understand it, the level of the reader must be the one of a real disciple in Trika Shaivism. If this requirement is not met, then there will be a lot of confusion and constant disappointment. Because in spite of my great efforts to explain the things so easily as possible, to study this treatise requires some spiritual caliber. In this system, sometimes it is not possible even to write about certain topics due to the extreme limitation of the words. Because in the end, all this knowledge has to do with 'states', and it is extremely difficult to write about 'states' in a precise way. Abhinavagupta has done his best to accomplish this formidable task of writing about what is superior and intangible. Anyway, despite his incredible skills to carry out this, he is not revealing everything. It is not because he is all the time hiding things from the reader, but because he is sometimes hiding and on other occasions he just cannot write about some extremely subtle topics because of the limitation of the words.

Goal of life is Liberation. Man has searched for freedom always in human history, but according to Trika Shaivism that is not real Liberation. Real Liberation does not mean that your body should be free from some prison and things like that. Real Liberation amounts to attaining His Svātantrya or Absolute Freedom. When the Great Lord's Svātantrya is achieved, then you see unity in all the things, i.e. you stop seeing duality as before. All is forever identified with Svātantrya, with Him, and that is the end of the story called 'you in bondage'. From this point on nothing will get in your way, because if something apparently gets in your way, that is Svātantrya again. This constant awareness of unity in all is real Freedom. There is no other attainment greater than this!

Keeping the above in mind, now read Tantrāloka and experience Supreme Delight, dear Śiva.

Important: All that is in brackets and italicized within the translation has been added by me in order to complete the sense of a particular phrase or sentence. In turn, all that is between double hyphen (--...--) constitutes clarifying further information also added by me.

 Строфы 151 - 160

ततोऽपि संहाररसे पूर्णे विघ्नकरीं स्वयम्।
शङ्कां यमात्मिकां भागे सूते संहरतेऽपि च॥१५१॥

Tato'pi saṁhārarase pūrṇe vighnakarīṁ svayam|
Śaṅkāṁ yamātmikāṁ bhāge sūte saṁharate'pi ca||151||

Even (api) then (tatas), when the taste of the withdrawal is full (saṁhāra-rase pūrṇe), (She, the Supreme Consciousness,) spontaneously (svayam) withdraws (saṁharate api ca), in the emitted portion (bhāge sūte), the doubt (śaṅkā) —whose nature is 'yama' or 'duality' --hence the name of the fourth and last Kālī for the knowable or object: Yamakālī-- (yama-ātmikām)—, which --i.e. the doubt-- creates an obstacle (vighna-karīm)||151||


संहृत्य शङ्कां शङ्क्यार्थवर्जं वा भावमण्डले।
संहृतिं कलयत्येव स्वात्मवह्नौ विलापनात्॥१५२॥

Saṁhṛtya śaṅkāṁ śaṅkyārthavarjaṁ vā bhāvamaṇḍale|
Saṁhṛtiṁ kalayatyeva svātmavahnau vilāpanāt||152||

After withdrawing (saṁhṛtya) the doubt (śaṅkām) —with exception of the object of doubt (śaṅkya-artha-varjaṁ vā)—, (She) performs (kalayati eva) a withdrawal (saṁhṛtim) with reference to the circle (of all) the positive entities --of all the things that exist-- (bhāva-maṇḍale) by means of a dissolution (vilāpanāt) in the Fire of Her own Self (sva-ātma-vahnau) --this is the Saṁhārakālī for knowledge and means of knowledge--||152||


विलापनात्मिकां तां च भावसंहृतिमात्मनि।
आमृशत्येव येनैषा मया ग्रस्तमिति स्फुरेत्॥१५३॥

Vilāpanātmikāṁ tāṁ ca bhāvasaṁhṛtimātmani|
Āmṛśatyeva yenaiṣā mayā grastamiti sphuret||153||

On which account (yena), She --the Supreme Consciousness-- (eṣā), reflecting upon (āmṛśati eva) that withdrawal of (all) the positive entities consisting in a dissolution (vilāpana-ātmikāṁ tām ca bhāva-saṁhṛtim) in Herself (ātmani), shines/vibrates (in this way) (sphuret): 'I have devoured it (mayā grastam iti)!'||153||


संहार्योपाधिरेतस्याः स्वस्वभावो हि संविदः।
निरुपाधिनि संशुद्धे संविद्रूपेऽस्तमीयते॥१५४॥

Saṁhāryopādhiretasyāḥ svasvabhāvo hi saṁvidaḥ|
Nirupādhini saṁśuddhe saṁvidrūpe'stamīyate||154||

The essential nature (sva-sva-bhāvaḥ hi) of this Consciousness (etasyāḥ... saṁvidaḥ), limited --i.e. the essential nature-- by what has been withdrawn (saṁhārya-upādhiḥ), sets --like the sun-- (astamīyate) in the unlimited and pure Consciousness (nirupādhini saṁśuddhe saṁvid-rūpe) --this is the Mṛtyukālī for knowledge and means of knowledge--||154||


विलापितेऽपि भावौघे कञ्चिद्भावं तदैव सा।
आश्यानयेद्य एवास्ते शङ्का संस्काररूपकः॥१५५॥

शुभाशुभतया सोऽयं सोष्यते फलसम्पदम्।
पूर्वं हि भोगात्पश्चाद्वा शङ्केयं व्यवतिष्ठते॥१५६॥

Vilāpite'pi bhāvaughe kañcidbhāvaṁ tadaiva sā|
Āśyānayedya evāste śaṅkā saṁskārarūpakaḥ||155||
Śubhāśubhatayā so'yaṁ soṣyate phalasampadam|
Pūrvaṁ hi bhogātpaścādvā śaṅkeyaṁ vyavatiṣṭhate||156||

Once the mass of positive entities has been dissolved (vilāpite api bhāva-oghe), She (sā) then (tadā eva) coagulates (āśyānayet) some positive entit(ies) (kañcid bhāvam), which --such a group of positive entities-- (yaḥ eva) remains (āste) (as) doubt (śaṅkā) (and) in the form of latent impressions (saṁskāra-rūpakaḥ).

This very (group of latent impressions) (saḥ ayam) will generate (soṣyate) an abundance of good and bad fruits (śubha-aśubhatayā... phala-sampadam). (In turn,) this (iyam) doubt (śaṅkā) stays (vyavatiṣṭhate) before (pūrvam hi) or (vā) after (paścāt) the experience (of pleasure and pain) (bhogāt)||155-156||


अन्यदाश्यानितमपि तदैव द्रावयेदियम्।
प्रायश्चित्तादिकर्मभ्यो ब्रह्महत्यादिकर्मवत्॥१५७॥

रोधनाद्द्रावणाद्रूपमित्थं कलयते चितिः।
तदपि द्रावयेदेव तदप्याश्यानयेदथ॥१५८॥

Anyadāśyānitamapi tadaiva drāvayediyam|
Prāyaścittādikarmabhyo brahmahatyādikarmavat||157||
Rodhanāddrāvaṇādrūpamitthaṁ kalayate citiḥ|
Tadapi drāvayedeva tadapyāśyānayedatha||158||

This (Supreme Consciousness) (iyam) then (tadā eva) melts (drāvayet) even (api) other (things) (anyat) which had (already) been coagulated (āśyānitam), as the actions connected with killing a priest, etc. (brahma-hatyā-ādi-karma-vat) (are canceled) through the rituals of expiation, etc. (prāyaścitta-ādi-karmabhyaḥ).

In this way (ittham), Citi or Consciousness (citiḥ) makes (kalayate) the form (rūpam) by coagulating --lit. by confining-- (rodhanāt) (and) melting (drāvaṇāt). She melts (drāvayet eva) this --lit. even that-- (tad api) (and) likewise (atha) She coagulates (āśyānayet) even that (tad api) --this is the Bhadrakālī or Rudrakālī for knowledge and means of knowledge--||157-158||


इत्थं भोग्येऽपि सम्भुक्ते सति तत्करणान्यपि।
संहरन्ती कलयते द्वादशैवाहमात्मनि॥१५९॥

Itthaṁ bhogye'pi sambhukte sati tatkaraṇānyapi|
Saṁharantī kalayate dvādaśaivāhamātmani||159||

Thus (ittham), when the object of experience or perception --i.e. the knowable-- has been totally enjoyed (bhogye api sambhukte sati), by withdrawing (saṁharantī) even (api) the instruments of that (experience or perception) (tad-karaṇāni), She, in the form of the twelve (organs) (dvādaśa eva), leads (kalayate) (those very twelve organs) to 'I' --i.e. to Ahaṅkāra or ego, category 15-- (aham-ātmani)||159||


कर्मबुद्ध्यक्षवर्गो हि बुद्ध्यन्तो द्वादशात्मकः।
प्रकाशकत्वात्सूर्यात्मा भिन्ने वस्तुनि जृम्भते॥१६०॥

Karmabuddhyakṣavargo hi buddhyanto dvādaśātmakaḥ|
Prakāśakatvātsūryātmā bhinne vastuni jṛmbhate||160||

The group of twelve organs of action and knowledge (karma-buddhi-akṣa-vargaḥ hi... dvādaśa-ātmakaḥ) which ends in Buddhi or intellect --viz. the group consists of 5 Powers of perception, 5 Powers of action, plus intellect and mind-- (buddhi-antaḥ), (and) which is the sun (sūrya-ātmā) since it illuminates and reveals (prakāśakatvāt), appears (jṛmbhate) as a differentiated reality (bhinne vastuni)||160||

अहङ्कारस्तु करणमभिमानैकसाधनम्।
अविच्छिन्नपरामर्शी लीयते तेन तत्र सः॥१६१॥

Ahaṅkārastu karaṇamabhimānaikasādhanam|
Avicchinnaparāmarśī līyate tena tatra saḥ||161||

But (tu) (as) Ahaṅkāra or ego --category 15-- (ahaṅkāraḥ), being an organ or instrument (karaṇam) solely bringing about conceptions based on a (fictitious) I-sense --e.g. I hear, I see-- (abhimāna-eka-sādhanam), is uninterruptedly dedicated to perceiving (all the objects) (avicchinna-parāmarśī). Therefore (tena), it --the group of twelve organs of action and knowledge-- (saḥ) is dissolved (līyate) in him --in ego-- (tatra)||161||


यथा हि खङ्गपाशादेः करणस्य विभेदिनः।

Yathā hi khaṅgapāśādeḥ karaṇasya vibhedinaḥ|
Abhedini svahastādau layastadvadayaṁ vidhiḥ||162||

Just as (yathā hi) (there is) dissolution (layaḥ) of a separate instrument such as a sword, a noose, etc. (khaṅga-pāśa-ādeḥ karaṇasya vibhedinaḥ) in one's own hands, etc. (sva-hasta-ādau) —which are not separate from oneself (abhedini)—, so also (tadvat) this (ayam) (is) the rule (vidhiḥ) (with reference to Ahaṅkāra or ego and the group of twelve organs of action and knowledge)||162||


तेनेन्द्रियौघमार्तण्डमण्डलं कलयेत्स्वयम्।

Tenendriyaughamārtaṇḍamaṇḍalaṁ kalayetsvayam|
Saṁviddevī svatantratvātkalpite'haṅkṛtātmani||163||

For that reason (tena), Goddess (devī) Consciousness (saṁvid), since She is Free (svatantratvāt), causes, by Herself, the solar circle (composed of) the mass of indriya-s --i.e. the group of twelve organs of action and knowledge-- to enter (indriya-ogha-mārtaṇḍa-maṇḍalaṁ kalayet svayam) into Ahaṅkāra or ego (ahaṅkṛta-ātmani), which is an invention (kalpite) --this is the Mārtaṇḍakālī for knowledge and means of knowledge--||163||


स एव परमादित्यः पूर्णकल्पस्त्रयोदशः।
करणत्वात्प्रयात्येव कर्तरि प्रलयं स्फुटम्॥१६४॥

Sa eva paramādityaḥ pūrṇakalpastrayodaśaḥ|
Karaṇatvātprayātyeva kartari pralayaṁ sphuṭam||164||

That very supreme solar (organ) --Ahaṅkāra or ego-- (saḥ eva parama-ādityaḥ), the thirteenth (one) (trayodaśaḥ), having almost attained fullness (pūrṇa-kalpaḥ), gets evidently dissolved (prayāti eva... pralayam sphuṭam), since he is an organ or instrument (karaṇatvāt), in the doer --in Puruṣa, category 12, in this context-- (kartari)||164||


कर्ता च द्विविधः प्रोक्तः कल्पिताकल्पितात्मकः।

Saṁsārākḷptikḷptibhyāṁ rodhanāddrāvaṇātprabhuḥ|
Anivṛttapaśūbhāvastatrāhaṅkṛtpralīyate||167||

And (ca) the doer (kartā), being invented and genuine (kalpita-akalpita-ātmakaḥ), is said to be (proktaḥ) twofold (dvividhaḥ).

The invented (doer) (kalpitaḥ) is covered (carcitaḥ) with the limitation of body, intellect, etc. (deha-buddhi-ādi-vyavacchedena). In the scriptures (śāstreṣu), he is given the name of Kālāgnirudra --this is Puruṣa, category 12-- (kālāgnirudra-sañjñā asya... paribhāṣitā).

(Why Kālāgnirudra?) Because (yatas) 'Kāla' --i.e. Time-- (kālaḥ) limits (vyavacchit), (and) 'agni' --i.e. fire-- (vahniḥ), combined with that --with 'Kāla'-- (tad-yuktaḥ), is said to be (smṛtaḥ) the experient or knower (bhoktā). (In turn, 'rudra' means) lord or master (prabhuḥ) in whom the state of animal --limited being-- has not yet ceased (anivṛtta-paśū-bhāvaḥ), because by coagulating and melting (rodhanāt drāvaṇāt), he invents and dissolves Saṁsāra or Transmigration full of misery --lit. by inventing and dissolving Saṁsāra-- (saṁsāra-akḷpti-kḷptibhyām). Ahaṅkāra or ego (ahaṅkṛt) gets dissolved (pralīyate) in him (tatra) --this is the Paramārkakālī for the knower--||165-167||


सोऽपि कल्पितवृत्तित्वाद्विश्वाभेदैकशालिनि।

So'pi kalpitavṛttitvādviśvābhedaikaśālini|
Vikāsini mahākāle līyate'hamidammaye||168||

Even he himself --i.e. Puruṣa-- (saḥ), since his activity as an experient or knower is an invention (kalpita-vṛttitvāt), is dissolved (līyate) in the expansive Mahākāla --lit. the Great Time, i.e. Śiva in categories 3 to 5-- (vikāsini mahā-kāle), which is only full of non-dualism with regard to the universe (viśva-abheda-eka-śālini) (and) consists of 'I am This' --viz. I am this universe-- (aham-idam-maye) --this is the Kālāgnirudrakālī for the knower--||168||

In this consciousness of one's own Self --in Mahākāla-- (etasyām sva-ātma-saṁvittau) shines forth (avabhāsate) an expansive (pravikasat-rūpā) Consciousness (saṁvittiḥ) (in the form of) 'I (aham), the Omnipresent One (vibhuḥ), (am) all (sarvam) this (idam... iti)'.

Afterward (tatas), (this) Consciousness (saṁvittiḥ), though (api) totally Full (paripūrṇā) (and) colored by the Enjoyment of the positive entities whose nature is the Universal Self that resides within (antar-sthita-sarvātma-bhāva-bhoga-uparāgiṇī), is dissolved (līyate) in the (Supreme) State (called) Akula --i.e. in Śiva, category 1-- (akule dhāmni) --this is the Mahākālakālī for the knower--||169-170||

Here --in Akula or Śiva-- (atra), all (sarvam) that (tad) which (yad) (has been manifested, such as) 'the group of experients or knowers (pramātṛ-vargaḥ), the multitude of means of knowledge (māna-oghaḥ), and (ca) the (various kinds of) knowledge (pramāḥ), (along with) the mass of knowables (meya-oghaḥ), (all of which) remain (sthitāḥ) in multiple ways (bahudhā... iti)', is only Consciousness (cit-mātram eva).

Parā (sā parā), the Supreme Mistress (parama-īśvarī), (is) the Absolute Freedom (svācchandyam) —which (yad) does not require any other thing (anapekṣam)— of one's own Consciousness (sva-saṁvidaḥ) that is the substratum (āśrayantyāḥ) of such a variety of forms --i.e. knowers, means, etc.-- (iyatīm rūpa-vaicitrīm) --this is the Mahābhairavaghoracaṇḍakālī, also called Mahābhairavacaṇḍograghorakālī, for the knower--||171-172||

For which reason (yatas), these (imāḥ) aforesaid operations (prāk-ukta-kalanāḥ) are said to be --lit. is said to be-- (ucyate) Her blossoming (tad-vijṛmbhā).

(The operations are the following,) in succession (kramāt): 'Projection (kṣepaḥ), knowledge (jñānam), enumeration (saṅkhyānam), movement (gatiḥ) and (ca) sound (nādaḥ iti)'.

(1) Projection (kṣepaḥ) (is) differentiation (bhedanam) from one's own Self (sva-ātmanaḥ). (2) Knowledge (jñānam) (is) a state free from vikalpa-s --a consciousness in unity with one's own Self-- (avikalpanam) with respect to what is differentiated (bheditasya). (3) On the contrary (anyatas), enumeration (saṅkhyānam) (is) vikalpa (vikalpaḥ) (operating) through an excessive differentiation (between subject and object) (vyatibhedanāt). (4) Movement (gatiḥ) (is) an establishing in one's own essential nature (sva-rūpa-ārohitvam) which --i.e. the establishing in one's own essential nature-- (yad) is like a reflection (in a mirror) (pratibimba-vat eva) --viz. though it is not separate from Śiva, the Supreme Principle, it looks like separate from Him--. (5) Sound (nādaḥ) (is) the remainder of self-referential Consciousness (sva-ātma-parāmarśa-śeṣatā) (which is left) after the disappearance of those --of knowledge devoid of vikalpa-s, etc.-- (tad-vilopanāt)||173-175||

On that account (tena), Her (asyāḥ) name (sañjñā) is said to be (uktā) 'Mātṛsadbhāva' --lit. the real being of the pramātā-s or experients/knowers-- (mātṛ-sadbhāva), because (yad) in the experients or knowers --i.e. in Sakala-s, Pralayākala-s, etc.-- (pramātṛṣu) subjectivity or knowership (pramātṛtvam) becomes evident or manifest (sphuṭībhavet) in (the form of this) Consciousness (who attains the maximum level) at the end of such (twelve goddesses) (etāvat-anta-saṁvittau).

(Additionally,) in venerable Niśisañcaratantra (śrī-niśisañcare), She is called (proktā) by the word 'Vāmeśvarī' (vāmeśvarī iti śabdena).

In this way (ittham), Consciousness (saṁvid) which remains (tiṣṭhantī) in twelve ways (dvādaśadhā) in all the experients or knowers (viśva-mātṛṣu) (is) 'only one' (ekā eva iti) (and), in Her case (asyāḥ), there is no (na kaḥ api) restriction (niyamaḥ) of succession (kramasya) anywhere (kvacit).

In the absence of succession (krama-abhāvāt), there is no (na) simultaneity (yugapad), (and) in the absence of it --of simultaneity-- (tad-abhāvāt), there is no (na) succession (kramaḥ) either (api). The perfectly pure (sunirmalam) Principle of Consciousness (saṁvid-tattvam) is beyond (even) the mention of succession and non-succession (krama-akrama-kathā-atītam).

Therefore (tad), wherever (yatra kvāpi) (there is) an act of establishing (pravartanam) of this Goddess Consciousness (asyāḥ saṁvidaḥ devyāḥ) --i.e. wherever someone has established himself in this Goddess Consciousness--, there (tatra), by means of the identification (with the Goddess) (tādātmya-yogena), the perfect (pūrṇā eva) worship (pūjā) takes place (vartate).

The state of being an ocean (sindhutā) has to do with an existence where there are no waves, there are waves, etc. (nistaraṅga-taraṅga-ādi-vṛttiḥ eva hi). This (etad) (is) the essence (sāram) of everything (samastasya): That (yad) the inert (jaḍam) universe (jagat) is essentially Consciousness (cit-sāram) as its foundation rests on It --on Consciousness-- (tad-adhīna-pratiṣṭhatvāt) (and) its essence (tad-sāram) is the Great (mahat) Heart (hṛdayam).

For example (tathā hi), this (idam) Sat or Existence --the letter S-- (sat), whose root is Brahmā (brahma-mūlam) (and) whose name is the Māyā's egg (māyā-aṇḍa-sañjñitam), cannot be said to be (na eva... ucyate) Sat or Existence (sat) without (vinā) reaching Will, Knowledge and Action --the letter AU-- (icchā-jñāna-kriyā-āroham).

After reaching that triad of Powers (tad-śakti-tritaya-ārohāt), it --i.e. Sat-- (tad) is emitted (visṛjyate) into the Consciousness of Bhairava --i.e. of Śiva-- (bhairavīye cit-ātmani), or else (vā atha) from there --from the Consciousness of Bhairava-- (tasmāt) it is emitted (visṛjyate) outside (bahis) --this double emission is Ḥ or Visarga--.

Thus (evam), that whose form is Sat or Existence (sat-rūpatā eva) of these entities (in the egg of Brahmā, etc.) (eṣām satām), together with the Supreme Consciousness --i.e. the Supreme Knower-- (para-bodhena), shines forth (vartate) as containing (samākṣipya eva) the three Powers (śakti-traya-ātmatām) (and) Visarga or Emission (visargam) --this is the venerable SAUḤ Mantra--.

That (tad) very Sat or Existence (sat eva), which is at first external (bahīrūpam prāk), melts in the Fire of Consciousness --this is the letter R-- (bodha-agni-vilāpitam) (until) it becomes a residue of Consciousness (in the form) of an internal resounding --this is the letter Ph-- (antar-nadat-parāmarśa-śeṣībhūtam). After that (tatas api alam), it --i.e. Sat or Existence-- reaches (samprāptam) the Ether --the Void, this is the letter Kh-- (khātmatvam eva) --lit. the Ether is reached--. (Next, Sat or Existence,) reaching (etya) Vedana or Knowledge --this is Ṁ or Anusvāra-- (vedana-ātmakatām) through the sphere of action of the triad of Powers --this is the letter E-- (śakti-tritaya-gocarāt), is dissolved (līyate) in That whose nature is dissolution (saṁhāra-ātmani) --this is the famous RPhKhEṀ Mantra--.

This (idam) (Mantra, i.e. RPhKhEṀ, is called) 'the Heart of dissolution' (saṁhāra-hṛdayam), and (ca) the preceding one, (i.e. SAUḤ,) (prācyam) is considered to be the Heart (hṛt-matam) with reference to manifestation (sṛṣṭau) --viz. 'the Heart of manifestation'--||185-191||

Here (atra), in the eighteenth chapter (of Mālinīvijayatantra) (paṭale aṣṭādaśe), the Lord --i.e. Śiva-- (nāthaḥ) explained (abhyadhāt) the proper behavior (samācāram):

'Here (atra) there is neither (na) purity (śuddhiḥ) nor (na ca) impurity (aśuddhiḥ), nor (na) (any) discussion about what to eat, etc. (bhakṣya-ādi-vicāraṇam). There is neither (na) dualism (dvaitam) nor (na api ca) non-dualism (advaitam), nor (na ca) worship of Liṅga and such (liṅga-pūjā-ādikam). There is not even (na ca api) renunciation of that --of the worship of Liṅga-- (tad-parityāgaḥ), or even (api vā) (there is neither) to have no property --or 'not to accept'-- (niṣparigrahatā) nor --lit. or-- (vā api) to have property --or 'to accept'-- (saparigrahatā), (nor) to wear twisted hair locks, ashes, etc. (jaṭā-bhasma-ādi-saṅgrahaḥ). There is not (either) (na) renunciation of that --of to wear twisted hair locks, ashes, etc.-- (tad-tyāgaḥ). There is no (na) observance or non-observance (caraṇa-acaraṇaṁ ca yad) of vows and so on (vrata-ādīnām)'.

'To enter into places of pilgrimage (kṣetra-ādi-sampraveśaḥ), the protection of an established rule of conduct (samaya-ādi-prapālanam), the Liṅga whose nature is the Highest Reality, etc. (para-svarūpa-liṅga-ādi) and (ca) that which (yad) (is) initiation name, spiritual clan, etc. (nāma-gotra-ādikam ca yad). With respect to this --to all the things mentioned before-- (asmin), there is nothing (na... kiñcid) which is prescribed (vidhīyate) or even (na ca api) forbidden (pratiṣidhyate). Everything (sarvam eva) here (atra) (is) prescribed (vihitam) and (atha api ca) forbidden (pratiṣiddham)'.

'However (kim tu), oh Ruler of the gods --an epithet for the Goddess-- (deva-īśi), this (etad) here (atra) is prescribed (vidhīyate) as obligatory (niyamena): The mind (cetas) must be firmly established (sthirīkāryam) in the Supreme Principle (tattve) on the part of the very pure Yogī (suprasannena yoginā) --i.e. the very pure Yogī must firmly establish his mind in the Supreme Principle--. And (ca) as (yathā eva) that (rule) (tad) is (syāt) for him (yasya), (therefore,) he (saḥ) should behave (samācaret) in that way (tathā eva)'.

'He whose mind is firmly concentrated (niścala-cittaḥ tu) on the Supreme Principle (tattve), even (api) while consuming (bhuñjānaḥ) poisons --lit. objects-- (viṣayān), is not touched --i.e. affected-- (na saṁspṛśyeta... saḥ) by any bad consequences (doṣaiḥ), just as (iva) the petal(s) of a lotus (padma-patram) (are not touched) by water (ambhasā). The one who is fully equipped with mantra-s to take away poison, etc. (viṣa-apahāri-mantra-ādi-sannaddhaḥ), even (api) consuming (bhakṣayan) poison (viṣam) is not bewildered (na muhyate) by it (tena). The Yogī (yogī) with a great understanding (mahā-matiḥ) (is) like that (tadvat)' --end of the quote from Mālinīvijayatantra--.

How then (katham nāma) (could) something which is composed of the five gross elements (pāñcabhautikam) such as body, etc. (deha-ādyam) be impure (aśuddham)? Apart from Light (prakāśatā-atirikte), what (kim) is purity and impurity (śuddhi-aśuddhī hi) of a thing (vastunaḥ)? And (ca) what (kim) is (syāt) that --lit. such-- (tādṛśā eva) purification (śuddhiḥ) of an impure positive entity --an entity that exists-- (aśuddhasya... bhāvasya)? Because (hi) (if the process is) here (atra) in this way (ittham), (there would be) a vicious circle --lit. mutual or reciprocal support--, uselessness and an endless series of statements --i.e. regressus ad infinitum-- (anyonya-āśraya-vaiyarthya-anavasthā). (To think that) earth (pṛthivī) could be purified (śuddhyet) by water (jalataḥ) as well as (tathā) (to think that) water (jalam) (could be purified) by earth (dharaṇitaḥ) (is) that very thing (sā iyam) a vicious circle (anyonya-āśrayatā). (Why? Because) this (ayam) succession (kramaḥ) (continues) in the state of impurity (aśuddhatve api). (And to think that) 'the earth' (dharā iti) could be purified (śuddhyet) by impure water (aśuddhāt jalataḥ) would imply --lit. would be-- (bhavet) uselessness (vyarthatā). (Finally, an endless series of statements would be to think that there is purification) of water (vāriṇaḥ) by air (vāyutaḥ), of air (vāyoḥ) by fire (tejasaḥ), or (vā) of that one --of fire-- (tasya) by another (thing) (anyataḥ).

(If one considers that in the case of the) mantra-s (mantrāḥ) (such as) Bahurūpa, etc. (bahu-rūpa-ādikā), (which are sounds based on the five gross elements such as space, etc., there is) naturally --lit. 'through a means of purification', but Jayaratha in his commentary interprets it as 'svabhāvatas' or 'naturally'-- (pāvanāt) a state of purity (śuddhatā) in them (teṣu), (therefore,) if (yadi) the mantra-s (mantrāḥ) (are) naturally (svabhāvatas) pure (śuddhāḥ), (then) why (kim) can they --i.e. the five gross elements such as space, etc.-- not also be (te api na) like that (tathā) --viz. pure like the mantra-s themselves--?. (Or) if (yadi) the identity with Śiva (śiva-ātmatā) (is the cause of) purification (śuddhiḥ) with reference to those (mantra-s) (teṣu), (then) why (kim) is it not --i.e. that purification-- (sā na) in them --in the five gross elements-- (tatra) too (api)?||213-226||

Also (ca), with respect to the generic (rule) (sāmānya-vihite), purity and impurity (śuddhi-aśuddhī... te), in the case of a person who knows the Supreme Principle (tattva-bodhini puṁsi), are refuted (bādhite) indeed (eva).

Moreover (atha), it is well known (prakīrtitā) that (in the Vedic scriptures) impurity (aśuddhiḥ) (is) that which (yā) (is) in a dead body (mṛta-dehe) and (ca) which comes out of (such a) body (deha-utthe). (And this impurity) 'is not (na) elsewhere --i.e. in a living body-- (anyatra... iti)'.

Therefore (atas), all (sarvam) that has achieved (āpannam) identity with Consciousness (saṁvid-tādātmyam) is pure (śuddham... athitam). Regarding (this) investigation about purity and impurity (śuddhi-aśuddhi-nirūpaṇe), it has been said (uktam) in venerable Vīrāvalītantra (śrīmat-vīrāvalau): 'Life (jīvaḥ) is the bearer or carrier (vāhakaḥ) of everything and everybody (sarveṣām).

But (tu), to protect the world (loka-saṁrakṣaṇa-artham), that (tad) truth --this duality in Consciousness about purity and impurity-- (tattvam) was kept secret (pragopitam) by them --by the sages of yore-- (taiḥ). Purity and impurity (śuddhi-aśuddhī) (are) in the positive entities that exist (satsu api bhāveṣu) outside (bahis), (but) not (na), (for example,) like the blue color (nīla-vat). This (duality of purity and impurity) (ayam) (is rather) only (eva) an attribute of the subject (pramātṛ-dharmaḥ) on his perceiving unity or absence of unity with regard to Consciousness (cit-aikya-anaikya-vedanāt).

Or (vā) if (yadi) (this duality of purity and impurity was) an attribute of the object (vastu-dharmaḥ api), (it would be anyway) based on a dependence upon the subject (mātṛ-apekṣā-nibandhanaḥ). In the Sautrāmaṇī ritual (sautrāmaṇyām), wine (surā) (is) pure (śuddhā) to the 'hotā' priest --the one offering oblations-- (hotuḥ) (but) the opposite (viparyayaḥ) to another (person) (anyasya).

Through this (reasoning) (anena), the refutation (bādhanam) of scriptural injunctions (codanānām) by means of exceptions (sva-vākyaiḥ api) somewhere --i.e. in the sphere of influence of general rules-- (kvacid) (is clearly) shown (sandarśitam), like the prohibition and the prescription about killing a priest (brahma-hatyā-vidhi-niṣedhavat) --e.g. nobody must kill a priest, but another priest can do it if it is necessary--. Even (api) the prescriptions about what to eat, etc. (bhakṣya-ādi-vidhayaḥ) are to be considered --i.e. understood-- (carcitāḥ) by having recourse to (āśritya) this method (enam nyāyam) (too)||244-247||

'The Śiva's (statements or rules) (śaivam) are never to be refuted (na... bādhanīyam kadācana) by the Viṣṇu's statements or rules (vaiṣṇavaiḥ vākyaiḥ).

In Śaivasiddhānta (siddhānte), worship of Liṅga (liṅga-pūjā) is prescribed --lit. it is said-- (uktā) to know the composition of the courses of the universe (viśva-adhva-mayatā-āvide). (However,) in the Kula school and so on (kula-ādiṣu), that (worship of Liṅga) (asau) (is) forbidden (niṣiddhā). (Why? Because according to Kula, etc.) to know the nature of the universe (viśva-ātmatā-āvide) (one should focus) on the body (dehe).

(Nevertheless,) here --in Trika Shaivism-- (iha), why (kasmāt) should there be prescription or prohibition of that --of Liṅga worship-- (tad-vidhi-pratiṣedhane) when (Trika) comprehends --i.e. contains-- all (sarva-ātmake)?

(In Śaivasiddhānta,) due to the practice of restrictions --lit. due to an entrance into restrictions-- (niyama-anupraveśena), twisted hair locks, etc. (jaṭā-ādi) (are required) to attain identification (with Śiva) (tādātmya-pratipattaye). (Anyway,) in Kaula --in the Kula school-- (kaule), due to the teaching of easy means (sukha-upāya-padeśataḥ), the abandonment (tyāgaḥ) of this --viz. of the restrictions which have to do with wearing twisted hair locks, etc.-- (asya) (is prescribed).

And (ca) (in Śaivasiddhānta,) the observance of vows (vrata-caryā) is for achieving identification with the meaning of the mantra (mantra-artha-tādātmya-pratipattaye). But (tu), (in the Kula school, there is) prohibition of (such) vows (tad-niṣedhaḥ) in order to acquire the universality --i.e. unity with the universe-- of the meaning of the mantra (mantra-artha-sārvātmya-pratipattaye).

(In Śaivasiddhānta,) entry (praveśaḥ) into places of conjunction --lit. fields--, seats and secondary seats --sanctuaries of the Goddess-- (kṣetra-pīṭha-upapīṭheṣu) is taught (upadiśyate) for removing obstacles (vighnaśāntaye) and, moreover (atha), for the one worshiping a mantra, etc. to obtain that --to get a mantra, etc. there, in those places of conjunction, etc.-- (mantra-ādi-ārādhakasya tad-lābhāya).

However (tu), the rule about not going to places of conjunction, etc. (kṣetra-ādi-gamana-abhāva-vidhiḥ) has also been described (api varṇitam) 'in order to know (jñātum) Fullness (pūrṇatvam) through the universality (vaiśvarūpyeṇa) of one's own Self (sva-ātmanaḥ) in the aforesaid way --lit. so-- (tathā... iti)'.

(In Śaivasiddhānta,) the truth about observing an established rule of conduct (samaya-ācāra-sadbhāvaḥ) is taught (upadiśyate) as something that it must be protected (pālyatvena). (What is it taught for?) For purifying the Truth (tattva-viśuddhaye) by (gradually) abandoning those various (rules) (tad-tad-tyāgāt) animated by duality (bheda-prāṇatayā).

But (tu) in the scriptures of Mata system --which are characterized by uniformity-- (mata-śāstreṣu), the prohibition of established rules of conduct, etc. (samaya-ādi-niṣedhaḥ) is mentioned --i.e. is prescribed-- (kathyate). (Why? 'Because) one's own Consciousness --viz. the Supreme Principle-- (sva-bodham) should be understood (buddhyatām) to be Boundless --i.e. unrestrained-- (nirmaryādam) (and) Full --viz. this Consciousness does not depend on another-- (sampūrṇam... iti)'.

This (idam) form (rūpam) belonging to another (parakīyam) (is) the object of meditation (dhyeyam), but (tu) this (meditator or subject) (etad) that remains in my body --lit. one's own-- (nijam) (is) mine (me). And (ca) the Liṅga (called) Flame, etc. (jvāla-ādi-liṅgam) is of another (anyasya), but (tu) the skull, etc. (kapāla-ādi) that remains in my body (nijam) (is) mine (me). By the word 'etc.' (in 'the Liṅga called Flame, etc.') (ādi-śabdāt), it is meant (kathyate) austerity --e.g. a fast regulated by the moon--, observances, astronomical moments --noon, midnight, etc.--, moon phases --e.g. the first day of lunar fortnight--, etc. (tapas-caryā-velā-tithi-ādi).||256-264||

And (ca) the (spiritual) clan (gotram) —i.e. the uninterrupted series of Guru-s --the spiritual lineage-- (guru-santānaḥ)— is called (in two ways:) 'Maṭhikā' --lit. college-- and 'kula' --lit. seat of a community-- (maṭhikā-kula-śabditaḥ)||265||

In this way (ittham), the 'maṭhikā-s' --colleges-- (maṭhikāḥ) here (atra) —in the succession (of Guru-s) of Śaṅkara --Śiva-- (śāṅkare krame)—, (are) three and a half (in number) (ardha-catasraḥ): The Śrīnātha's (lineage) --the one of the 18 dualistic/non-dualistic Rudratantra-s-- (śrī-santatiḥ), the one called the Tryambakanātha's (lineage) --the one of the 64 non-dualistic Bhairavatantra-s-- (tryambaka-ākhyā), the one which is the half of that --of the Tryambakanātha's lineage-- (tad-ardhā), (and) the one whose name is the Āmardakanātha's (lineage) --the one of the 10 dualistic Śivatantra-s-- (āmarda-sañjñitā). (This) lineage of perfected ones --i.e. liberated beings-- (siddha-santatiḥ) (extends), over the succession of yuga-s --eras-- (yuga-krameṇa), from Kūrma-nātha, etc. (kūrma-ādyā) up to Mīnanātha (mīna-antā).

And (ca) by the word 'etc.' (occurring in stanza 216 after 'gotra' or 'spiritual clan') (ādi-śabdena), (it was meant:) 'House(s) --i.e. the residences of the plenipotentiary princes-- (gharam), small cottage(s) --viz. the place for begging-- (pallī), seats and secondary seats (pīṭha-upapīṭhakam), mudrā(s) --seals-- (mudrā) (and specially the) chummā(mudrā-s) ---- (chummā). The rule(s) (vidhānam) in the case of those (things) (teṣām ca) vary from one lineage to another (sva-para-sthitam).

To attain identification (with Śiva) (tādātmya-pratipattyai), one should undoubtedly take refuge (hi... samāśrayet) in his own lineage (svam santānam). One should not at all worship (and) enjoy (bhuñjīta pūjayet... nahi) the Cakra (cakram) along with members of another lineage (para-santāninā).

But (ca) this --i.e. the previous injunction that has to do with to accept and to reject-- (etad) (is) forbidden (niṣiddham) in the scriptures of Mata system --i.e. Siddhayogeśvarīmatatantra and others-- (mata-śāstreṣu). (Why?) Because (yataḥ), by means of this duality --by means of the duality created by the notion about the members of one's own lineage, the members of other lineages, etc., all of which is relating to accepting and rejecting-- (bhedena anena), an interruption or division (khaṇḍanā) in the unbroken Supreme Principle (akhaṇḍe api pare tattve) arises (jāyate).

Thus (evam), (all) that (tad), from entering into places of conjunction (kṣetra-praveśa-ādi) up to the restrictions with reference to lineages (santāna-niyama-antataḥ), is (na) not prescribed (vidhīyate) here --'in this scripture which has started', according to Jayaratha, or also 'in Trika Shaivism', according to myself-- (asmin). (Why?) Because (hi) it is not (na) a direct means (sākṣāt... aupayikam) to Śiva (śive). However (ca), there is not (na) its (tasya) prohibition (niṣedhaḥ) (either. Why?) Because (yad) it --i.e. entering into places of conjunction, etc.-- (tad) (does not stand for) an interruption or division (khaṇḍanam) of the (Supreme) Principle (tattvasya)||266-271||

But (tu) when (yadā) somewhere (on the spiritual path) (kvacid) one knows --i.e. one realizes-- (vetti) that a means (yam eva... upāyam) is close --viz. that a means gets closer-- (nikaṭam) in order to penetrate into the Supreme Principle (para-tattva-praveśe), then (tadā) that (means) (saḥ) is to be adopted (grāhyaḥ). Or else (atha vā), (if the situation is the opposite, then that means) is to be abandoned (tyājyaḥ). In venerable Trika system (śrī-trika-śāsane), it is said (proktam) that (iti) here (atra) no (na) interruption or division (of the Supreme Principle --in the form of accepting or rejecting--) (yantraṇā) has been made (kāryā).

(In Trika Shaivism,) there is equality (samatā) of all the deities (sarva-devānām), of the traditions --six lineages of knowledge-- and of the letters of the mantra-s (ovallī-mantra-varṇayoḥ), of the revealed scriptures --i.e. of the Tantra-s-- (āgamanām) and (ca) of the procedures (gatīnām). (Why?) Because (yatas) all (sarvam) is Śiva (śiva-mayam).

He (saḥ) certainly (hi) perceives (prapaśyati) the Principle of Śiva (śiva-tattvam) as the undivided Existence (akhaṇḍita-sadbhāvam) who (yaḥ) indeed (hi) attains --or takes refuge in-- (prapadyate) the Principle of the Self (ātma-tattvam) as the undivided Existence (akhaṇḍita-sadbhāvam) --i.e. who realizes that Śiva is the unbroken real Being of all--.

Only (eva) a bee (bhṛṅgaḥ) takes greatly delight (bhṛśam... rasikaḥ) in the fragrance of a flower of the Ketaka plant (ketakī-kusuma-saurabhe), not (na) a fly (makṣikā). (In the same way, only) someone (kaḥ api) who has been inspired/impelled by the Great Lord (mahā-īśa-coditaḥ) is attracted by (rajyati) the worship of the supreme non-dualism of Bhairava (bhairavīya-parama-advaya-arcane).

To the ones who find rest (viśrāntim kurvatām) in this sacrifice (asmin ca yāge), the great noise of Saṁsāra --Transmigration full of misery-- (bhava-ḍambaraḥ) is dissolved (vilīyate) by itself (svayam eva) like (iva) a mass of snow (himānī) in the intense summer heat (mahā-grīṣme).

Or (vā) enough (alam) with (the) unwarrantable stretch of (this) exposition about rules and principles (ati-prasaṅgena) as regards what has (already) been excessively explained in detail (bhūyasā ati-prapañcite). (Only) someone (kaḥ api) (who is) a sage (budhaḥ) who is entirely protected by praises (abhi-nava-guptaḥ) is fit (yogyaḥ) for this sacrificial performance --i.e. to perform this sacrifice-- (asmin... yāga-vidhau)||273-278||
