Tantrāloka (Tantraloka): Глава 5 - строфы 1-159 - Недвойственный Кашмирский Шиваизм
Метод ограниченного существа [Āṇavopāya]
Вступление
This is the only set of stanzas (from the stanza 1 to the stanza 159) of the fifth chapter (called Naropāyaḥ).
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.

अथ श्रीतन्त्रालोके पञ्चममाह्निकम्।
Atha śrītantrāloke pañcamamāhnikam|
Here begins (atha) the fifth (pañcamam) chapter (āhnikam) in venerable Tantrāloka (śrī-tantrāloke)|
आणवेन विधिना परधाम प्रेप्सतामथ निरूप्यत एतत्॥१॥
Āṇavena vidhinā paradhāma prepsatāmatha nirūpyata etat||1||
For the ones who desire to obtain (prepsatām) the Supreme State (para-dhāma) through the method of the limited being (āṇavena vidhinā), now (atha) this (Āṇavopāya) (etad) is explained (nirūpyate)||1||
विकल्पस्यैव संस्कारे जाते निष्प्रतियोगिनि।
अभीष्टे वस्तुनि प्राप्तिर्निश्चिता भोगमोक्षयोः॥२॥
Vikalpasyaiva saṁskāre jāte niṣpratiyogini|
Abhīṣṭe vastuni prāptirniścitā bhogamokṣayoḥ||2||
When the purification of vikalpa arises without any opposition --i.e. when, according to what has been explained in Śāktopāya, there is the clear attainment of the essential nature devoid of vikalpa-s since an opposite vikalpa just does not spring up-- (vikalpasya eva saṁskāre jāte niṣpratiyogini), (then there is) the definitive (niścitā) achievement (prāptiḥ) with reference to the desired reality (abhīṣṭe vastuni), be it enjoyment --viz. enjoyment of supernatural powers or even a commanding position in higher worlds-- or Liberation (bhoga-mokṣayoḥ)||2||
विकल्पः कस्यचित्स्वात्मस्वातन्त्र्यादेव सुस्थिरः।
उपायान्तरसापेक्ष्यवियोगेनैव जायते॥३॥
कस्यचित्तु विकल्पोऽसौ स्वात्मसंस्करणं प्रति।
उपायान्तरसापेक्षस्तत्रोक्तः पूर्वको विधिः॥४॥
Vikalpaḥ kasyacitsvātmasvātantryādeva susthiraḥ|
Upāyāntarasāpekṣyaviyogenaiva jāyate||3||
Kasyacittu vikalpo'sau svātmasaṁskaraṇaṁ prati|
Upāyāntarasāpekṣastatroktaḥ pūrvako vidhiḥ||4||
The vikalpa (vikalpaḥ) of someone (kasyacid) becomes (jāyate) very firm (su-sthiraḥ) due to Freedom of his own Self (sva-ātma-svātantryāt eva) (and) separately from (any) dependence on another means (upāya-antara-sāpekṣya-viyogena eva).
But (tu) that (asau) vikalpa (vikalpaḥ) of someone (else) (kasyacid) depends on other means (upāya-antara-sāpekṣaḥ) for purifying itself --lit. in the direction of self-purification--(sva-ātma-saṁskaraṇam prati). The first (pūrvakaḥ) method (vidhiḥ) has (already) been mentioned (uktaḥ) there --in the previous chapter-- (tatra) --therefore, Abhinavagupta is going to talk about the second method--||3-4||
विकल्पो नाम चिन्मात्रस्वभावो यद्यपि स्थितः।
तथापि निश्चयात्मासावणोः स्वातन्त्र्ययोजकः॥५॥
Vikalpo nāma cinmātrasvabhāvo yadyapi sthitaḥ|
Tathāpi niścayātmāsāvaṇoḥ svātantryayojakaḥ||5||
Even if (yadi api) vikalpa (vikalpaḥ) indeed (nāma) has only Consciousness for essential nature (cit-mātra-svabhāvaḥ...sthitaḥ), even so (tathā api), in the case of the limited being (aṇoḥ), that (vikalpa) (asau) (is) a bestower of freedom (svātantrya-yojakaḥ) when it contains certainty (niścayātmā) --e.g. by removing 'this is not a pot', the vikalpa containing certainty establishes that 'this is a pot'--||5||
निश्चयो बहुधा चैष तत्रोपायाश्च भेदिनः।
अणुशब्देन ते चोक्ता दूरान्तिकविभेदतः॥६॥
Niścayo bahudhā caiṣa tatropāyāśca bhedinaḥ|
Aṇuśabdena te coktā dūrāntikavibhedataḥ||6||
And (ca) this (eṣaḥ) certainty (niścayaḥ) (is) manifold (bahudhā). (What is the cause of such a manifoldness? The cause is that) there --in certainty-- (tatra... ca) the means (upāyāḥ) (are) differentiated (bhedinaḥ) according to whether they are close to or far from (Consciousness) (dūra-antika-vibhedataḥ). They --such means-- (te ca) are designated (uktāḥ) with the word 'aṇu' (aṇu-śabdena)||6||
तत्र बुद्धौ तथा प्राणे देहे चापि प्रमातरि।
अपारमार्थिकेऽप्यस्मिन् परमार्थः प्रकाशते॥७॥
Tatra buddhau tathā prāṇe dehe cāpi pramātari|
Apāramārthike'pyasmin paramārthaḥ prakāśate||7||
The Highest Reality (parama-arthaḥ) shines (prakāśate) in this (asmin), even if (this) (api) is not the Highest Reality (apāramārthike); (in other words, It shines) there (tatra), viz. in the intellect (buddhau) as well as (tathā) in the vital energy (prāṇe), in the body (dehe) and even (ca api) in the experient or knower --i.e. the limited subject-- (pramātari)||7||
यतः प्रकाशाच्चिन्मात्रात् प्राणाद्यव्यतिरेकवत्।
तस्यैव तु स्वतन्त्रत्वाद्द्विगुणं जडचिद्वपुः॥८॥
Yataḥ prakāśāccinmātrāt prāṇādyavyatirekavat|
Tasyaiva tu svatantratvāddviguṇaṁ jaḍacidvapuḥ||8||
(Why?) Because (yatas) vital energy, etc. (prāṇa-ādi) are not separate (avyatirekavat) from the Light which is only Consciousness (prakāśāt cit-mātrāt). However (tu), since That --Consciousness-- is Free (tasya eva... svatantratvāt), (vital energy, etc.) are twofold --i.e. they have a double aspect-- (dvi-guṇam) in the form of inert and conscious (jaḍa-cit-vapus)||8||

And (ca) this (etad) has been said (uktam) by the half-moon crested One --by Śiva-- (candra-ardha-maulinā) to the Goddess (devyai) in Triśirobhairavatantra (traiśirase): 'Although (api) the Supreme Śakti --the Supreme Power-- (śaktiḥ... parā) of Śiva (śivasya eva) exists (sthitā) certainly (eva) everywhere (sarvatra), She --the Supreme Power-- (sā), due to the appearance (unmīlanāt) of (limited) knowledge --e.g. 'I know this'-- (jñānasya), gets established (rūḍhā) in the pratyaya of such a kind, (i.e. in the vikalpa of such a sort whose essence has to do with the operation of the limited experient or knower) (sva-rūpa-pratyaye). (In this contracted condition, She is called) jīva --viz. She is called as one whose nature is the limited experient endowed with vital energy, intellect, etc.-- (jīvaḥ)'.
(But,) by removing --or conquering-- (tirodhāya) the inert aspect (such as vital energy, etc.) (jaḍa-ātmatā-bhāgam), he becomes (bhavet) non-dual --viz. he overcomes duality-- (advayaḥ) who sees (paśyan), because of the operation of the Splendor of Absolute Freedom (svātantrya-ullāsa-kalpanāt), the real Essence (satyām) of that --of jīva-- (tasya) as having Consciousness for its nature (cit-rūpatām).
Or (vā) with reference to that --to vital energy, etc.-- (tatra), through the viewpoint of Absolute Freedom --i.e. due to the Greatness of the Absolute Freedom of Consciousness-- (svātantrya-dṛṣṭyā), (the Yogī) determines (niścinoti) that the innate Consciousness (nija-caitanyam) is totally pure --viz. It is not stained with objectivity, etc.-- (viśuddham) (and) not identical (with vital energy, etc.) (atadātmakam), like the reflection of a face (mukha-bimba-vat) in a mirror (darpaṇe).
(Even if) by force --i.e. in an improper way-- (balāt) Consciousness (caitanyam) is established (niścitam) as different (bhinnam) from intellect, vital energy, etc. (buddhi-prāṇa-āditaḥ), (nevertheless,) It is really not different from that --from intellect, vital energy, etc.-- (tad-abhinnam syāt). (Why?) Because between them --between intellect, vital energy, etc.-- there are reciprocal differences (tasya anyonya-vibhedataḥ).
(This) absence of difference (in Consciousness) with respect to all the forms (viśva-rūpa-avibheditvam) comes (jāyate) from (Its) purity (śuddhatvāt eva). (Why?) Because there is opposition by another form --e.g. vital energy, etc.-- (mūrti-antara-virodhataḥ) in the case of a form that appears as completely different and fixed (due to the exigencies coming from limitations such as space, time, etc.) --e.g. intellect, etc.-- (niṣṭhita-eka-sphurat-mūrteḥ).
Although (yadi api) everything (sarvam) exists (sat) within (antar) Consciousness (saṁvidi) —otherwise (aparathā), on what account (kasmāt), by what (kena) or (vā) how (katham) (does that 'everything') pass into (saṅkrāmet) thought (dhiyi), vital energy (prāṇe) or (athavā) body (dehe)?—, nonetheless (tathā api), vikalpa (vikalpaḥ) does not (na) exist (asti) in this Nirvikalpa --in the State of Consciousness, which is devoid of vikalpa-s-- (nirvikalpe asmin). Without (vinā) it --viz. without vikalpa-- (tam), even (api) one thing which has been seen (dṛṣṭe) looks like if it had not been seen (adṛṣṭa-kalpatvam). (Therefore,) certainty --e.g. 'this is so'-- (niścayaḥ) (takes place) due to vikalpa (vikalpena) indeed (tu).
The State of the Supreme Lord (pārameśvaryam) (is) quickly (añjasā) conceivable (vikalpya) with regard to intellect, vital energy and body (buddhi-prāṇa-śarīreṣu) --i.e. since the State of the Supreme Lord, characterized by Knowership and Doership, is the Seat for 'I-consciousness' in an experient or knower identified with intellect, vital energy and body--. (Anyway,) with reference to the experient or knower whose form is the void (śūnyarūpe... pramātari), there is no (na) conception (vikalpa) --i.e. the State of the Supreme Lord is inconceivable in this type of experient or knower--.
There (tatra), intellect (buddhiḥ) consists in 'dhyāna' --lit. meditation-- (dhyāna-mayī) (and) vital energy (prāṇaḥ) consists in 'uccāraṇa' --lit. 'pronunciation, articulation', anyway, in Trika it means 'that which ascends and appears as sound', which is the main quality of the vital energy-- (uccāraṇa-ātmakaḥ). And (ca) uccāraṇa (uccāraṇam) (contains) the five (pañca) modes (of the vital energy) (vṛttayaḥ), from 'prāṇa' --the first type of vital energy bears the same name as the whole vital energy, which might be confusing-- (prāṇa-ādyāḥ) up to 'vyāna' (vyāna-antāḥ). However (tu), the primordial aspect (of vital energy) (ādyā) consists in --lit. is similar to-- 'Prāṇanā' --viz. consists in the very energy of life-- (prāṇanā-abhikhyā), (while) the inferior (aspect) (aparā) has to do with 'uccāra' --uccāra and uccāraṇa are synonyms-- (uccāra-ātmikā bhavet)||9-18||

Śarīrasyākṣaviṣayaitatpiṇḍatvena saṁsthitiḥ|
Tatra dhyānamayaṁ tāvadanuttaramihocyate||19||
There is an abiding (saṁsthitiḥ) of the body (śarīrasya) as a solid combination of senses, objects of the senses and these (five vital energies) (akṣa-viṣaya-etad-piṇḍatvena) --i.e. the body abides or remains as a solid combination of senses, objects of the senses and these (five vital energies)--. Then (tatra), here --in this book-- (iha) firstly (tāvat) it is mentioned (ucyate) (how) 'Anuttara' --Śiva-- (anuttaram) is meditated on --i.e. how one should meditate on Śiva by means of dhyāna in Āṇavopāya-- (dhyāna-mayam)||19||

Yaḥ prakāśaḥ svatantro'yaṁ citsvabhāvo hṛdi sthitaḥ|
Sarvatattvamayaḥ proktametacca triśiromate||20||
This (ayam) Free (svatantrataḥ) Light (prakāśaḥ), whose nature is Consciousness (cit-sva-bhāvaḥ) (and) which (yaḥ) comprehends all realities (sarva-tattva-mayaḥ), resides (sthitaḥ) in the Heart --not the physical organ or even the respective cakra there, but the Core of the Highest Reality-- (hṛdi). This (etad ca) has been said (proktam) in Triśirobhairavatantra (tri-śiras-mate) --the quote from Triśirobhairavatantra is the next stanza--||20||

'The knower of the Supreme Principle (tattva-vit) perceives --i.e. realizes-- (īkṣate) That --the Supreme Reality-- (tad) as remaining inside the Heart (hṛdaya-antar-stham), like if It were a flower (puṣpam iva) whose form is the hemispherical cavity of the flower of the plantain tree --i.e. That whose form is constituted by all the realities, such as gross elements, subtle elements, senses, etc., which are closely connected with each other, forming an hemisphere of petals furnished with an inner and outer shape, reciprocally-- (kadalī-sampuṭa-ākāra), (and) which is the Innermost Nature containing (all) that is external and internal --viz. the Supreme Experient or Knower who contains (all) the multitude of common realities (i.e. realities that are perceived by oneself and by other people, e.g. a mountain) as well as those realities which are uncommon (i.e. realities that are only perceived by oneself, e.g. one's thoughts and mental images about a mountain)-- (sa-bāhya-abhyantara-āntaram)'||21||

The attentive (yogī) (ananyadhīḥ) should meditate (dhyāyet) there --in the Heart-- (tatra), on the conjunction of moon, sun and fire --i.e. of apāna, prāṇa and udāna, three of the five forms assumed by the vital energy-- (soma-sūrya-agni-saṅghaṭṭam). (And what is the result of this type of meditation?) By means of the agitation generated by the fire-producing wooden sticks of that meditation --viz. by means of the penetration into the middle state due to a state devoid of thoughts generated by the constant movement of sun and moon, i.e. of exhalation and inhalation, which act like a couple of fire-producing wooden sticks-- (tad-dhyāna-araṇi-saṅkṣobhāt), the Fire --lit. oblation-eater-- of the Great Bhairava (mahā-bhairava-havyabhuk), which flames violently (jājvalan) in the Pit called the Heart (hṛdaya-ākhye mahā-kuṇḍe), (just) becomes more intense (sphītatām vrajet).
One should meditate (bhāvayet), in identity --non-dualistically-- (abhedena), on the (triple) state (dhāma) called knower, knowledge/means of knowledge and knowable (mātṛ-māna-prameya-ākhyam) which belongs to that Splendor of Bhairava, i.e. to the expansive Power of the Mighty One --of the Great Lord-- (tasya śaktimataḥ sphīta-śakteḥ bhairava-tejasaḥ).
That (tad eva) is (bhavet) the triad (tritayam) of the powers (known as) fire --knower--, sun --knowledge/means of knowledge-- and moon --knowable-- (vahni-arka-soma-śaktīnām)||22-24||

This (iyam) (aforesaid triad of knower, knowledge/means of knowledge and knowable is the) ever-active (sadā-uditā) (triad of) Supreme (parā), Supreme/nonSupreme (parā-aparā) and (ca) nonSupreme (aparā) (Powers). From each (pratyekataḥ) of those (Powers) (tāsām) (arises) a triad (tridhā) (composed of) manifestation, maintenance and withdrawal (sṛṣṭi-saṁsthiti-saṁhāraiḥ).
And (ca), in the case of these ones (āsām), (there is) a fourth (aspect) (caturtham) whose nature (rūpam) (is) uninterrupted (anavacchinnam) (and) real --not artificial-- (akalpitam). Thus (evam), those (tāḥ) twelve (dvādaśa) goddesses (devyaḥ) --viz. four aspects in Parā, four aspects in Parāparā and four aspects in Aparā-- exist (āsthitāḥ) like the disk of the sun (sūrya-bimba-vat). Each (eka-ekam) of them (āsām) shines forth as fire, sun, moon and the cessation of that (vahni-arka-soma-tad-śānti-bhāsanam).
This (etad) unsurpassed (anuttaram) wheel (of twelve goddesses) (cakram) oozes out (niḥsarati eva) from the Heart (hṛdayāt) through the ether of (indriya-s such as) power of seeing, etc. (cakṣus-ādibhiḥ vyomabhiḥ) toward the sphere of the various objects (tad-tad-viṣaya-gocare).
By means of the Splendor of that wheel (tad-cakra-bhābhiḥ) in that objective side (tatra arthe), a nature (rūpam) consisting in the light of moon, sun and fire (soma-sūrya-agni-bhāsa-ātma) remains --viz. shines forth oriented toward outside with a little limitation-- (samavatiṣṭhate) in accordance with the succession of manifestation, maintenance and dissolution --i.e. withdrawal-- (sṛṣṭi-sthiti-laya-kramāt).
Thus (evam), by means of this wheel —whose course --or scope-- is the ether (of indriya-s) such as power of hearing, etc.— which falls (śrotra-ādi-vyoma-vartmanā... cakreṇa anena patatā) into object(s) such as sound, etc. (śabda-ādi-viṣaye), (the yogī) gets (paribhāvayet) identification (with that wheel) (tādātmyam).
According to this procedure --Jayaratha, the commentator of Tantrāloka, wrote: 'according to the aforesaid connection with the succession of manifestation, etc.'-- (anena krama-yogena), wherever (yatra yatra) that (adas) all-containing (sarva-ātmakam) wheel (cakram) falls (patati), there (tad tad) (it is) like a universal monarch (sārvabhauma-mahī-īśa-vat).
In this way (ittham), the whole group of paths or courses --i.e. the six paths or courses-- (viśva-adhva-paṭalam) is dissolved (līyate) without effort (ayatnena eva) in the great wheel of Bhairava (bhairavīya-mahā-cakre), which is surrounded by (the goddesses of) Consciousness (saṁvitti-parivārite).
After that (tatas), with the total cessation (parikṣaye) of the universe (viśvasya api) (and its transformation into) merely a latent impression (saṁskāra-mātreṇa), (the yogī) should meditate (sañcintayet) on the great whirling wheel (bhrāmyat cakram... mahat) like a bursting forth of his own Self (sva-ātma-ucchalattayā).
Afterward (tatas), with the complete dissolution of what was to be burnt in it --viz. in the universe consisting of an external mass of objects-- (tad-dāhya-vilayāt), (the yogī) should meditate (bhāvayet) on the wheel (cakram) as if it were disappearing (praśāmyat); next (tatas), with the total cessation of its latent impression --i.e. of the latent impression of the universe-- (tad-saṁskāra-parikṣayāt), (the yogī should meditate on the wheel) as if it had disappeared (śāntam), (and) finally --lit. after that-- (tatas), (the yogī should meditate on the resulting) Peace (produced by the disappearance of the wheel) --i.e. he should meditate on Pure Consciousness Itself-- (śamam).
By means of this meditation (anena dhyāna-yogena), the universe (viśvam) is totally dissolved (vilīyate) in the wheel (cakre), (and) that (wheel) (tad) in Consciousness (saṁvidi). After that (tatas), Consciousness (saṁvid) shines (bhāsate) devoid of any object --lit. with the objects fully dissolved-- (vilīna-arthā eva). Afterward (tatas), due to the nature of Consciousness (cit-svābhāvyāt), (there is) again (bhūyas) manifestation (sṛṣṭiḥ). (Why?) Because (yad) Consciousness (cit) (is) the Great Mistress --i.e. She has lordship over all the things-- (mahā-īśvarī)||25-35||

In this manner (evam), the yogī (yogī) should contemplate (vibhāvayet), (not only that wheel but also) the (various) wheel(s) (cakram), beginning with (prabhṛti) the trident --viz. the three-spoked wheel-- (triśūlāt), following with the (wheels with) four and five spokes (catur-pañca-araka-kramāt), (and) ending with the fifty-spoked (wheel) (pañcāśat-ara-paryantam).
(Afterward,) he should meditate (dhyāyet), without any other thought (ananyadhīḥ), on the (wheels with) sixty-four and one hundred spokes (catuṣṣaṣṭi-śata-aram), or (vā... atha api vā) on the (wheel with) one thousand spokes (sahasra-aram), or (vā) on the one with innumerable thousands of spokes (asaṅkhya-ara-sahasram)||36-38||

Venerable Śrīkaṇṭhanātha --Śiva-- (śrī-śrīkaṇṭhaḥ) explained (this point) (nyarūpayat) in Māṅgalaśāstra (māṅgalaśāstre tu): 'The Possessor of Śakti (śaktimān) (is) the Great (mahā) Lord (īśvaraḥ) certainly (tu) --i.e. Śiva--, (and) His (asya) śakti-s or powers --the multiple aspects assumed by Śakti-- (śaktayaḥ) (are) the entire (kṛtsnam) world (jagat... iti)'||39-40||

Thus (iti), (when) venerable Śambhunātha --the Kula Guru of Abhinavagupta-- (śrī-śambhunāthaḥ) was satisfied (tuṣṭaḥ) (with me), he explained (nyarūpayat) to me (me) this (etad) 'dhyāna' or 'meditation' (dhyānam), which constitutes the first means (in Āṇavopāya) (prathama-upāya-rūpam). (In turn,) venerable Sumatinātha --the refounder of the Kula school and grand Guru of Śambhunātha-- (śrī-sumatiprabhuḥ) (explained it) to him --viz. to Śambhunātha-- (tasmai).
By means of this reference (anayā eva diśā), (the yogī) should also practice (api samāśrayet) other (anyāni) meditations (dhyānāni), which (yāni) attain (āyānti), without (vinā) any succession (kramam), the highest position among the means to reach Anuttara --Śiva-- (anuttara-upāya-dhurām)||41-42||

Moreover (atha), the mode (vṛttiḥ) which (yā) belongs to prāṇa (prāṇasya) has (already) been explained (nirūpitā) as Prāṇanā --the very energy of life--, etc. (prāṇanā-ādyāḥ). (Therefore, now) I will speak --lit. we speak-- (brūmaḥ) about the expansion of Anuttara (anuttara-pravikāsanam) as a means to That --to Anuttara Itself-- (tad-upāyatayā).
Thanks to a rest in a mere state of void (śūnyatā-mātra-viśrānteḥ), (the yogī) at first (purā) remains (sthitaḥ) in Nijānanda --i.e. in one's own bliss or bliss of one's own Self, -- (nija-ānande), in the heart --in the point where inhalation ends-- (hṛdi) —in the portion which is only the knower (pramātṛ-aṁśa-mātre)—.
When prāṇa, (whose nature is pramāṇa or knowledge/means of knowledge,) rises --when it reaches, in the exhalation, dvādaśānta (12 fingers from the heart)-- (prāṇa-udaye), (the yogī) perceives (vibhāvayet) Nirānanda --lit. devoid of (limited) bliss-- (nis-ānandam). But (tu) in prameya or knowable --i.e. in apāna existing in the inhalation; all in all, 'in prameya or knowable' means 'during the inhalation'-- (prameye), (the yogī) becomes aware of (vibhāvayet) Parānanda --i.e. bliss created by prameya (apāna)-- (para-ānandam).
There --in Parānanda-- (tatra), (the yogī) abides (tiṣṭhet) situated in Parānanda (para-ānanda-gataḥ) (completely) satisfied with drinking, wihout any desire for grabbing various objects, the infinite portions of prameya or knowable (ananta-prameya-aṁśa-pūraṇā-pāna-nirvṛtaḥ) (and) embellished by the moon of apāna (apāna-śaśi-śobhitaḥ) --i.e. there is an inhalation from dvādaśānta (12 fingers from the heart) up to the heart--.
After that (tatas), when (the yogī stays in the heart --when he retains his breath there--) satisfied with being totally devoted to the mutual unions of the infinite flashing objects --e.g. blue, pleasure, etc.-- (ananta-sphurat-meya-saṅghaṭṭa-ekānta-nirvṛtaḥ), having arrived at (āgatya) the samāna stage (samāna-bhūmim), he becomes full of Brahmānanda --the bliss of Brahma (because it is all-pervading)-- (brahma-ānanda-mayaḥ bhavet).
Afterward (tatas api), when (the yogī) is totally devoted to devouring the limitations of the continuous flow of knowables and means of knowledge --i.e. when he is totally devoted to devouring the limitations of the continuous flow of apāna and prāṇa, viz. when he is totally devoted to the conjunction of them both-- (māna-meya-ogha-kalanā-grāsa-tatparaḥ) (and consequently) comes to rest (viśrāntaḥ) in the fire of udāna (udāna-vahnau), he (clearly) perceives (vibhāvayet) Mahānanda --the great bliss-- (mahā-ānandam).
There --in Mahānanda-- (tatra), having attained a repose (viśrāntim abhyetya), (the yogī) remains calm (śāmyati) in this (bliss) which contains great flames --i.e. in the fire of udāna whose essence is the knower-- (asmin mahārciṣi)||43-48||

(After that, appears) the great penetration (mahā-vyāpti) devoid of attributes --i.e. devoid of knower, knowledge/means of knowledge, and knowable-- (nis-upādhiḥ) called vyāna (vyāna-ākhyā), which (is said to be) without attributes (because it is both immanent and transcendent) (upādhi-varjitā). Then (tadā), certainly (khalu) (takes place) Cidānanda --the bliss of Consciousness-- (cit-ānandaḥ), which (yaḥ) has no room for inert objects --i.e. for the meya or knowable aspect-- (jaḍa-anupabṛṁhitaḥ)||49||

Here --in Cidānanda-- (atra), there is no (na... kāpi) separate (vibhaktā) existence (saṁsthitiḥ) of inert objects (jaḍa-rūpiṇaḥ).
Śambhunātha (śambhuḥ) told (ūcivān) me --lit. us-- (asmabhyam) about Jagadānanda --the Universal Bliss-- (jagat-ānandam) (as) that (State) (tad eva) where (yatra) there is no (kaḥ pi... na asti) division (vyavacchedaḥ) since (yad) It appears (sphurat) as all the forms --lit. everywhere-- (viśvataḥ), whose Consciousness shines everywhere as knower, knowable, etc. --lit. intact-- (yad-anāhata-saṁvitti), who is nourished by the Supreme Nectar (characterized by Absolute Freedom) --i.e. It is Full and does not depend on another-- (parama-amṛta-bṛṁhitam) (and) where (yatra) there is no (asti... na... kā api) prominent (mukhyā) association (saṅgatiḥ) with contemplation, etc. (bhāvanā-ādīnām) --viz. there is no direct means in the form of contemplation, etc.--. There (tatra), a repose (viśrāntiḥ) is to be conceded --i.e. the yogī is going to receive-- (ādheyā) by means of the uccāra --lit. 'pronunciation, articulation', anyway, in Trika it means 'that which ascends and appears as sound', which is the main quality of the vital energy--, from the heart, of manifestation, etc., (which --i.e. manifestation, etc.-- have been and will be spoken about) (hṛdaya-uccāra-yogataḥ).
(But, what is it taking place here by a repose?) A complete (samyak) repose (yā... viśrāntiḥ) there (tatra) is staying full of Anuttara or Śiva --another possible translation is: 'is staying as identical with Anuttara or Śiva'-- (sā anuttara-mayī sthitiḥ).
Thus (iti), this (etad) form --i.e. the last six kinds of bliss from Nirānanda up to Jagadānanda-- (rūpam) born from the uccāra of the six vital energies (ṣaṭ-prāṇa-uccāra-jam) (happens) in one's own State --in the Light of one's own Self-- (sva-dhāmani), though (this State) has only one essential nature whether in the heart, etc. (hṛdaya-ādi-eka-svabhāve). Now (atha) that (very form) (tad) is spoken about (ucyate) by means of the penetration (of the mantra-s) (vyāptyā).
From leveling the ones which are directed forward and backward --i.e. from penetrating into the middle state by leveling the flows of prāṇa and apāna-- (pūrva-apara-samīkṛteḥ) by the method of the stick with reference to the vital energy (prāṇa-daṇḍa-prayogena), the wise man --the yogī-- (sudhīḥ) should seek refuge (āśrayet) in the Nectar-receptacle of lambikā --located on the right-hand side of the soft palate-- which holds up a lotus --a support called 'the Vidyā lotus' situated in the space between the eyebrows-- and a catuṣkikā --lit. tetrad, i.e. a support known as 'the gem of thought', located below Brahmarandhra and whose form looks like a place where four roads meet-- (catuṣkikā-ambuja-ālambi-lambikā-saudham). After this (atas), having reached (krāntvā) the trident stage --i.e. the stage called 'the support of the subtle channels'-- (triśūla-bhūmim) —(in other words, having reached) the conjunction of the three subtle channels --Iḍā, Piṅgalā and Suṣumnā-- (nāḍi-tritaya-saṅgatām)—, (the yogī) should enter (praviśet) into the plane where Will, Knowledge and Action exist in equality --i.e. into the nature of Bhairava-- (icchā-jñāna-kriyā-śakti-samatve).
(Firstly, the yogī) should resort to --i.e. by means of his fervent desire to attain the state of 'Ūrdhvakuṇḍalinī', he should advance by the method of udghāta or rising-- (śrayet) the undivided --lit. one-- (ekām) garland of stairs --viz. the following methods are stairs because they are means to ascend to higher and higher states-- (known as) Bindu in (the space between) eyebrows, Nādānta and Śakti --these are three of the celebrated twelve stages of mantra Om̐-- (bhrū-bindu-nādānta-śakti-sopāna-mālikām), which --the garland-- is expanded (vikāsinīm), (and) again (bhūyas) indeed (tu) devoid of contraction (asaṅkocām), (and again) expanded (vikasvarām) --i.e. this garland of stairs is never contracted--.
There (tatra), at the stage of Ūrdhvakuṇḍalinī --i.e. in the state of Unmanā-- (ūrdhva-kuṇḍalī-bhūmau), (lies) Visarga or Emission --which is the Supreme Form of the Supreme Lord appearing as two dots (transliterated as 'ḥ')-- (visargaḥ), which is desirable --lit. beautiful-- due to the presence of the Essence which flashes as identical --lit. belly-- with Spandana --with the bursting forth of one's own Self-- (spandana-udara-sundaraḥ). (The yogī) should rest (viśrāmyet) there --in Visarga or Emission-- (tatra), viz. in the One --i.e. in Visarga-- which is fond, (as has been previously mentioned,) of the State of the Essence which flashes as identical with Spandana --lit. which is fond of the state of the fish-belly-- (matsya-udara-daśā-juṣi).
Just as a she-donkey (or) a mare (rāsabhī vaḍavā yad-vat) rejoices (hṛṣyati) in (her) heart (hṛdi) after entering (praviśya) into the temple of bliss of her own abode, which is full of expansions and contractions (yadvat sva-dhāma-ānanda-mandiram vikāsa-saṅkoca-maya), so also (tadvat), (the yogī) penetrates into --lit. attains-- (śrayet) the couple of Bhairava-s --viz. in Bhairava and Bhairavī, i.e. in Śiva and Śakti-- that is established in expansion and contraction --viz. that appears as expansion and contraction-- (vikāsa-saṅkoca-rūḍha-bhairava-yāmalām) (and) that is totally replete with the multitude of positive entities --viz. knowers, knowables, etc.-- being manifested and dissolved again (muhur līna-sṛṣṭa-bhāva-vrāta-sunirbharām).
In the Supreme Heart --i.e. in Consciousness which is the supreme Bīja or Seed which is inside and outside everything-- where the great root --the letter 'S'--, the trident --the letter 'AU'-- and the Visarga --the letter 'Ḥ'-- are united --i.e. where they have become one and remain only as Consciousness-- (ekīkṛta-mahā-mūla-śūla-vaisargike hṛdi parasmin), (the yogī) finds rest (eti viśrāntim) by means of the Yoga of filling it all (sarva-āpūraṇa-yogataḥ).
Here --at the stage of Ūrdhvakuṇḍalinī-- (atra), (the Supreme Heart whose essence is I-consciousness) abides (sthitam) as a universal penetration --viz. It embraces the entire universe-- (viśva-āveśa-mayam) due to Its Fullness --lit. due to Its Full State-- (tad-pūrṇa-vṛttyā iva). Let Aham --i.e. (real) 'I'-- be perceived --lit. be seen-- (aham iti eva dṛśyatām) in (that) rest of the Light in Itself --or 'in the Self'-- (prakāśasya ātma-viśrāntau)!
In the consciousness of Anuttara --i.e. in the Supreme Light, in Śiva-- (anuttara-vimarśe) that at the beginning --at the starting point-- is devoid of activity, etc. (prāk-vyāpāra-ādi-vivarjite) shines forth (sphuret) the first Splendor (prathama-ullāsinī), i.e. I-ness --viz. I-consciousness-- (ahaṅkṛt) which is totally devoted to only the awareness of one's own Self --lit. which is totally devoted to the awareness of Consciousness-- (cit-vimarśa-parā).
On account of that --i.e. on account of the shining forth of I-consciousness-- (tatas), It --viz. the Supreme Light-- (saḥ), through the sun --viz. 'knowledge and means of knowledge'-- (sūryeṇa) which, (though) its nature is the twelve powers --the twelve kinds of consciousness, i.e. the vowels starting with 'a' and ending with 'ḥ', to the exclusion of the eunuch vowels (ṛ, ṝ, ḷ and ḹ); all in all: a, ā, i, ī, u, ū, e, ai, o, au, (a)ṁ and (a)ḥ - ('a' is added to 'ṁ' and 'ḥ' to make them utterable)-- (dvādaśa-kalā-ātmanā), (appears) as an effort --a strong desire to manifest-- oriented outward (udyoga-saktena), manifests --i.e. projects externally-- (ābhāsayet), maintains --lit. fills, i.e. causes the knowable to continue for some time-- (pūrayet) and then (atha) withdraws --by means of the realization of one's own Self-- (carcayet) the knowable (bhāvam).
Now (atha) the moon --whose nature is 'meya' or knowable such as body, etc.-- (induḥ), consisting of sixteen kalā-s --phases-- (ṣoḍaśa-kalaḥ), is confident in swallowing Visarga or Emission --i.e. in concealing the nature of that Visarga-- (visarga-grāsa-mantharaḥ). While shining --viz. while the moon shines-- (sphuran), it emits --i.e. it breaks forth in a gross form as knower, knowable, etc.-- (visṛjati), in the Fire of Consciousness (bodha-vahnau), the Nectar of the Vivifying One --i.e. of the seventeenth kalā, viz. of the consort of the Cause of the Vivification of the universe, viz. Śiva-- (sañjīvanī-amṛtam).
Thus (evam), that (tad) divine (divyam) Nectar (amṛtam) pleases (tarpakam) the goddesses of Consciousness --e.g. the goddess of seeing-- (saṁvid-devīṣu) when It reaches --like clarified butter (ghṛta) in a ritual-- the tip of the wooden ladle —consisting of the Powers of Will, Knowledge and Action— (called) the subtle openings --i.e. the openings of the senses-- (icchā-jñāna-kriyā-śakti-sūkṣma-randhra-sruk-agra-gam).
If (ced) such a (etāvat) Nectar of Emission (visarga-āmṛtam) is (bhavet) emitted (visṛṣṭam) in the Fire of Consciousness --lit. in the oblation-eater called Consciousness-- (bodha-ākhye huta-bhojini), all (sarvam) the sixfold circle of courses --i.e. the six courses: Varṇa, Mantra, Pada, Kalā, Tattva and Bhuvana-- (ṣoḍhā-adhva-maṇḍalam) (becomes) an oblation (hutam).
For which reason (yatas), Visarga or Emission (visargaḥ) of the Lord of Anuttara --Śiva-- (anuttara-nāthasya) (is) the Mistress of the Group --i.e. Kaulinī, the Mistress of the Group constituted by knower, knowledge/means of knowledge, and knowable-- (kula-nāyikā). Her agitation (tad-kṣobhaḥ) (is the whole set of letters and associated realities) from 'ka' up to 'ha' (ka-ādi-ha-antam), (and) Her expansion (tad-prasaraḥ) is the path of categories (tattva-paddhatiḥ)||50-67||

This (etad) 'Kha' --ether or void-- (kham), characterized by the gradual attainment of Supreme Consciousness by means of the intensity of contemplation (uccāra-uccāra-lakṣaṇam), is said to be (proktam) tenfold (daśadhā): (1) (Supreme) Self, (2) limited being, (3) the root of Kula --the place of origin of prāṇaśakti-- (ātma-aṇu-kula-mūlāni), (4) (prāṇa)śakti --the one which flows in the middle prāṇa-- (śaktiḥ), (5) Might --Lordship characterized by Absolute Freedom-- (bhūtiḥ), (6) Citi --Supreme Consciousness who is Turyātīta, the State beyond the Fourth One-- (citiḥ), (7) Rati --clinging to, devotedness-- (ratiḥ), (8, 9 and 10) the triad of śakti-s (śakti-trayam) colored by the perceiver and the perceived object (draṣṭṛ-dṛśya-uparaktam) --i.e. the Power of Knowledge colored by the perceiver, viz. pramāṇa, and the Power of Action colored by the perceived object, viz. prameya-- (plus the śakti) who is devoid of that --viz. the Power of Will-- (tad-vivarjitam).
Residing in Dhāma --in the limited being-- (dhāma-stham), completely surrounded by the real nature of Dhāma --of Might or Lordship characterized by Absolute Freedom-- (dhāma-udara-puṭīkṛtam), (the yogī) should arouse --he should come to be able to be conscious of that (Self)-- (bodhayet) Dhāma --the Supreme Self-- (dhāma). By means of Dhāma --of Rati or clinging to, devotedness-- (dhāmnā), he should realize --lit. do!-- (kuru) that Dhāma --prāṇaśakti-- (dhāma) residing in the middle of Dhāma --of the root of Kula or place of origin of prāṇaśakti-- (dhāma-madhya-stha) dwells in the highest limit of Dhāma --of Citi or Supreme Consciousness who is Turyātīta, the State beyond the Fourth One-- (dhāma-anta-gam).
For that reason (tad), (because of the realization of the Supreme Principle,) Dhāma --the Power of Knowledge colored by the perceiver, viz. pramāṇa-- (dhāma), through the movement of Dhāma --the Power of Action colored by the perceived object, viz. prameya-- (dhāma-gatyā) indeed (tu), (becomes) differentiated --and it should be abandoned-- (bhedyam). (After abandoning such a Dhāma, the yogī should really take refuge) inside the final Dhāma --Power of Will whose nature is only Self-awareness without any attributes such as perceiver, perceived object, etc.-- (dhāma-antam āntaram)||93-95||

Thus (iti), this (ayam) means of penetration (praveśa-upāyaḥ) is said to be (parikīrtitaḥ) 'āṇava' --pertaining to Āṇavopāya-- (āṇavaḥ). It was told (yaḥ... uditaḥ) to me (mama) by the venerable Lord Maheśvara residing in the Heart (śrī-mahā-īśvara-nāthena... hṛd-sthena) --viz.

In venerable Brahmayāmalatantra (brahmayāmale ca), it has been said (uktam) (that:)
'Venerable --because Prakāśa in the form of Vimarśa is Life-- (śrīmān) Sound --viz. I-consciousness whose nature is Parāvāk-- (rāvaḥ) is of ten kinds (daśa-ātmakaḥ): (1 to 3) Gross --Vaikharī-- (sthūlaḥ) in the palate (tālavyaḥ eva), (4 to 6) subtle --Madhyamā-- (sūkṣmaḥ) in the throat (kaṇṭhyaḥ), and (ca) (7 to 9) higher --Paśyantī-- (paraḥ) in the heart (hṛdyaḥ) --these three levels of speech have 9 different subdivisions, 3 per speech, hence my numbering--. (Finally, there is) (10) that (sound) (ca... asau) which (yaḥ) pervades (vibhuḥ) everywhere (sarvatas) (and) which confers the state of omnipresence (vibhutva-pada-dāyakaḥ) --the nature of this tenth sound which has split away from the previous 9 sounds is Parāvāk--||96-98||

The Great Yogī (mahā-yogī) who has conquered the sound (jita-rāvaḥ) should pass through (the sound) (saṅkrāmet), (going higher and higher, and discarding the inferior stages. Consequently, this Yogī) who dwells in the supreme body --i.e. who is dedicated to the essential nature of higher and higher sounds, one after another-- (para-deha-gaḥ) attains (vindati) the Supreme Inherence or Pervasion (parām ca... vyāptim) --viz. he attains his own real nature--. (For this reason,) he should practice (hi abhyaseta) that (tam) really (tāvat) until (yāvat) Rāviṇī --the Power of Vimarśa whose nature is Parāvāk appearing in the form of the various sounds-- (sā... rāviṇī), through sound --by uttering each of the (abovementioned) sounds-- (rāvāt), is dissolved --viz. rests-- (līyeta) in the soundless Reality --i.e. in one's own Self whose form is I-consciousness-- (arāve).
Here --in this special means-- (atra), in the case of the ones who wish to enter (vivikṣoḥ) into the Supreme Path (pare pathi) by means of contemplation --i.e. by means of the practices of uccāra, karaṇa, etc.-- (bhāvanayā) through bodily means (deha-gata-upāyaiḥ), does arise (prajāyate) a first bliss (prāk-ānandaḥ) due to a contact with Fullness (pūrṇatā-sparśāt).
After that (tatas api), (there is) clearly (prasphuṭam) a 'springing' (udbhavaḥ) (or) 'leap' (plutiḥ) because of an absorption (samāveśāt), for an instant (kṣaṇam), in the Dhāma or State (dhāmni) devoid of body (deha-varjite) similar to the discharge of a thunderbolt (vidyut-āpāta-sadṛśe).
(Afterward, the yogī) gets (āpnuyāt) a tremor (kampam) as dust in water (jala-pāṁsu-vat). (Because of what?) Because of (his) act of abandoning unity between body and Consciousness, which --such an act of abandoning-- had been practiced (for many births) (abhyasta-saṁvid-deha-aikya-hānitaḥ), because of (his) grabbing hold of the Force of Consciousness --this Force is Power characterized by I-consciousness-- (sva-bala-ākramaṇāt) (and finally) because of the relaxation of the body --i.e. the erroneous notion that the not-self is the Self becomes relaxed, i.e. it is weakened-- (deha-śaithilyāt).
When, due to introversion, the certainty of identity with the body disappears (galite deha-tādātmya-niścaye antarmukhatvataḥ), (the yogī) firstly (purā) falls asleep (nidrāyate) as long as (yāvat) he is not established (na rūḍhaḥ) in Consciousness (saṁvid-ātmani).
Subsequently (tatas), established (rūḍhaḥ) in the Real State --the State of Supreme Consciousness-- (satya-pade) (and) realizing (saṁvidan) that Consciousness (saṁvidam) appears as the universe (viśva-ātmatvena) --i.e. he realizes that Consciousness is the real nature of this entire universe consisting of body, pot, etc.--, he staggers (ghūrṇate). Consequently (yatas), (this) staggering (ghūrṇiḥ) is called (smṛtā) the Great Pervasion (mahā-vyāptiḥ).
(There is) bondage (bandhaḥ) when the Self is erroneously considered to be the not Self (ātmani anātma-abhimatau satyām eva hi), (and conversely,) when the not Self —such as body, etc.— is erroneously considered as the Self (anātmani ātma-abhimānaḥ deha-ādau) --those are pauruṣājñāna and bauddhājñāna (ignorance about the Self and intellectual ignorance), the two aspects of Āṇavamala, the primordial impurity--. Liberation (muktiḥ) (is) truly (tu) the dissolution of that (tad-layaḥ).
The Great Pervasion (mahā-vyāptiḥ) takes place (pravartate) when, firstly, the (erroneous notion that the) not Self is the Self is dissolved in one's own Self, (and secondly,) when (the erroneous notion that) the Self is the not Self is eliminated (ādau anātmani ātmatve līne labdhe nija-ātmani ātmani anātmatā-nāśe).
Therefore (atas eva), the five (signs) (pañcakam) are so described (iti uktam) in venerable Mālinīvijayottaratantra (śrī-mālinīvijayottare): 'Bliss (ānandaḥ), springing or leap (udbhavaḥ), tremor (kampaḥ), sleep (nidrā) and (ca) staggering (ghūrṇiḥ)'.
When (yadā) the yogī (yogī) penetrates (viśet) into this group of five (signs) which has been taught, viz. bliss, etc. (pradarśite asmin ānanda-prabhṛtau pañcake) --i.e. when he experiences them one by one--, then (tadā) he, by force, attains (haṭhāt vrajet) lordship over the various wheels (such as Trikoṇa, etc.) (tad-tad-cakra-īśatvam).
Just as (yathā) the body (tanuḥ), even if (api) it is one --lit. possessed-- (ākrāntā) with Consciousness who is the Lord of all --because Consciousness pervades it all-- (sarva-īśinā bodhena), can (prabhavati) (just) do (kartum) something (kiñcid) somewhere (kvacit), (e.g.) by means of the eye(s) (cakṣuṣā) (it can) be aware of the forms --but not of the odors, etc.-- (rūpa-saṁvidam), so (tathā eva) from the penetration (praveśāt) into somewhere (kutra api), i.e. into a (particular) wheel (for each case, e.g. Trikoṇa, etc.) (cakre), there is (sambhavet) (only) something --viz. a particular experience, whether it be bliss or springing/leap or tremor or sleep or staggering, one each time-- (kaḥ api)||99-110||

This --the previous teachings about bliss, springing or leap, etc.-- (etad ca) has been clearly described (sphuṭam eva uktam) in venerable Triśirobhairavatantra (śrīmat-traiśirase mate).
In this way (evam), That (tad) which (yad) (is) the Supreme (param) Heart of repose for the uccāra-s which have been taught --i.e. that superior nature which is the Vibration of Consciousness consisting in I-consciousness and is called by the words 'Yoginī', 'Hṛdaya' (Heart), etc.-- (pradarśita-uccāra-viśrānti-hṛdayam), (is said to be) the Unmanifest Liṅga (avyakta-liṅgam). (Why? Because) It contains Śiva, Śakti and Nara (or limited being) in an undivided way (nṛ-śiva-śakti-avibhāgavat).
Here --i.e. in the Supreme Heart which is I-consciousness and consists of Śiva, Śakti and Nara-- (atra), this (idam) universe --i.e. this whole-- (viśvam) is dissolved (līnam) --i.e. it remains as undivided--. Here --in this Supreme Heart-- (atra), (this universe or whole) is perceived (gamyate) as residing within (It) (antar-stham). This (idam) (is) the characteristic of That (tad-lakṣaṇam), viz. of Bhairava Consciousness in the Fullness of Its Power (pūrṇa-śakti-bhairava-saṁvidaḥ).
The absorption (in the Supreme Principle) (samāveśaḥ tu... saḥ ca) which (yaḥ) (is) clearly manifest (sphuṭaḥ) (even) in the manifestation of the bodily path --even in the state where one erroneously considers the physical body, etc. to be the Self-- (deha-ga-adhva-samunmeṣe) (is) furnished with the state of Idam or This --Idantā-- —which lies in positive entities --entities that exist-- shining forth outside— covered by I-consciousness --Ahantā; i.e. Ahantā covers Idantā-- (ahantā-ācchādita-unmeṣi-bhāva-idam-bhāva-yuk) --all in all, this absorption consists of Ahantā and Idantā--. This (idam) Manifest/Unmanifest (vyakta-avyaktam) Liṅga (liṅgam) (is) the virility of Mantra --i.e. the Power of I-consciousness, because It, resting in this State, has the capacity to give the fruit which is suitable to oneself-- (mantra-vīryam) (and) Parāpara --lit. Supreme/non-Supreme; because there is predominance of Śakti-- (para-aparam); (in other words,) It appears as Śakti and Nara (nara-śakti-samunmeṣi) separated (vibheditam) from Śiva (śiva-rūpāt).
That (tad) which (yad) (is) differentiated --i.e. that which appears with an external form-- (vibhedavat), whose nature is the Specific Spanda (viśeṣa-spanda-rūpam), (and) in which there is an absorption in the degraded I-consciousness of Śiva --in the I-ness of the limited being-- (nyakkṛta-śiva-ahantā-samāveśa), is the Manifest (vyaktam) Liṅga (liṅgam), which is (nonetheless) Consciousness (cit-ātmakam), (or otherwise, this Manifest Liṅga would be nothing, i.e. It would not exist).
From the Manifest (Liṅga) (vyaktāt), (there is) generation of supernatural powers (siddhi-prasavaḥ); from Manifest/Unmanifest (Liṅga) (vyakta-avyaktāt), (there is) the two --supernatural powers and Liberation-- (dvayam); and (ca) from the Unmanifest (Liṅga) (avyaktāt), (there is) Liberation (only) (vimokṣaḥ). The Primordial (Liṅga) --i.e. the Unmanifest Liṅga-- (ādyam) (is) the Force or Power (balam) of the other (two) (parasya). However (tu), this (iyam) reasoning --lit. discussion, inquiry, investigation-- (carcā) (is) not (valid) (na) with reference to Anuttara (anuttare)||112-117||

The Liṅga of Nara --of the limited being; i.e. the Liṅga where the limited being predominates; all in all, It is the seat of the This-ness-- (nara-liṅgam), which (yad) (is) Manifest (vyaktam), is known as 'Ātmā' (ātma-ākhyam). The universe --which is so formed: 'I' is that which is 'This', e.g. I am the body, I am the mind, etc.-- (viśvam) (is placed) there --in Manifest Liṅga-- (tatra) as an offering (arpayataḥ) --i.e. it is dissolved there--. (This is) the Manifest/Unmanifest (Liṅga) (vyakta-avyaktam). From that (Manifest/Unmanifest Liṅga) (tasmāt), when that (universe) has (completely) disappeared --when it has become a residue of I-consciousness-- (galite tasmin), that (tad) (is) the Unmanifest (Liṅga) (avyaktam)||118||

Nevertheless (tu), this (iyam) reasoning --lit. discussion, inquiry, investigation-- (carcā) does not (na) have to do with the State of Anuttara (anuttara-dhāma-gā)||119||

This (eṣā) differentiation which is divided into three --viz. in the Manifest Liṅga, etc.-- (traidham bheda-vyavasthitiḥ) (is the expression) of a single Vibration (called by the words Yoginī, Hṛdaya, etc. and whose nature is predominantly Anuttara) (ekasya spandanasya). The one who is totally devoted to a repose in worship (pūjā-viśrānti-tatparaḥ) should always remain (sadā tiṣṭhet) in this Liṅga (atra liṅge) --Mālinīvijayottaratantra 18.42 says something like this about this topic: '(The yogī) should not worship the liṅga which is made out of gem, or whose constituent elements are clay and cloth, etc. He should worship the spiritual Liṅga in which all that is animate and inanimate is dissolved. Because by means of this (spiritual Liṅga), the liṅgahood of the external liṅga is established'--||120||

Does the sun not (gharmāṁśuḥ kim na) shine (bhāsate) even among lit lamps (jvaliteṣu api dīpeṣu) --just as, for revealing various things, there is no fault in the presence of the great light of the sun in the midst of lamps, etc. whose light is limited--?||125||

May that Supreme Principle be sought (tad-tattvam ācīyatām)! --the purport of this long stanza is that even in the midst of the external agitation coming from objects, knower, etc., the yogī, by removing (his) attachment to (all) that, remains dedicated only to his own Self--||127||

Thus (iti), the method of uccāra (uccāra-vidhiḥ) has been mentioned (proktaḥ). (Now,) the method of karaṇa (karaṇam) is examined (pravivicyate).
In this way (ittham), that --i.e. karaṇa-- (tad) is spoken about (bhāṣitam) by the Supreme Lord (parama-īśena) in Triśirobhairavatantra (triśiraḥśāstre):
'(The sages) said (prāhuḥ) that the conscious (bodha-pūrvakam) practice (abhyāsam) (known as) karaṇa (karaṇam) (is) sevenfold (saptadhā): Grāhya, grāhaka, cit, vyāpti, tyāga, ākṣepa and niveśana (grāhya-grāhaka-cit-vyāpti-tyāga-ākṣepa-niveśanaiḥ). In ākṣepa (ākṣepe), the karaṇa (karaṇam) previous to the penetration of it --i.e. of the universe-- (tad-vyāpti-pūrvam) (is) a repose in one's own Self (svapratiṣṭhatā)'.
And (ca) although (yadi api) it is clear (sphuṭam) that karaṇa (karaṇam) must be known (boddhavyam) from the mouth of the Guru (guru-vaktrāt), nevertheless (tathā api), for the protection of the Āgama --of the revealed scripture, viz. of the Tantra-- (āgama-rakṣā-artham) (so that it is not interrupted), it will be described (tad... varṇayiṣyate) further on (agre).
Varṇa (varṇaḥ saḥ) is said to be (kathyate) that (asau) sound (dhvaniḥ) —which is mostly like an inarticulate sound --it is an unstruck sound since its undivided nature is all the letters-- (avyakta-anukṛti-prāyaḥ)— which (yaḥ) keeps (sthitaḥ) vibrating (sphuran) there (tatra), viz. (in) this (eṣaḥ) uccāra (based on the vital energy) (uccāraḥ) that (yaḥ) has been mentioned (uktaḥ).
(The sages) know (viduḥ) that the main (mukhyam) form (vapus) --i.e. the principal place of manifestation-- of that (Varṇa) (tasya) (is) the (two) seed mantra(-s) of manifestation and withdrawal --i.e. 'sa' and 'ha', respectively, in this context, though Abhinavagupta will mentioned them as 'SAUḤ' and 'KhPhREṀ' later-- (sṛṣṭi-saṁhāra-bījam ca)||128-132||

By means of its practice --i.e. of the practice of the abovementioned sound which manifests in 'SAUḤ', 'KhPhREṀ', etc.-- (tad-abhyāsa-vaśāt), the yogī (yogī) gradually (kramāt) attains (yāti) Consciousness (cit-ātmatām).
For example (tathā hi): When (the consonants) starting with 'ka' and ending in 'sa' —without vowel or with vowel— are recollected or even uttered over and over again (an-acke sa-acke vā ka-ādau sa-ānte punar-punar smṛte proccārite vā api), (then) this or that (sā sā) consciousness --i.e. experience-- (saṁvid) is produced (prasūyate).
Even (api) those (te) sounds (dhvanayaḥ) (such as) 'pot', etc. (ghaṭa-ādyāḥ), which have to do with conventions regarding external objects (bāhya-artha-samaya-apekṣāḥ), generate (kuryuḥ) in oneself (ātmani) the realization of the object (artha-bhāvanām) in the form of imagination --lit. like the realm of fancy; i.e. in the form of different vikalpa-s, e.g. the word 'lover' evokes desire, sorrow, etc., which are only imagination or different vikalpa-s-- (manas-rājya-vat).
That (tad) has been said (uktam) by the Supreme Lord (parama-īśena): 'Bhairava (bhairavaḥ) pervades (vyāpakaḥ) it all (akhile). Thus (iti), through the constant utterance (santata-uccāraṇāt) of the word Bhairava (bhairava-śabdasya), (one becomes) Śiva (śivaḥ)'.
It has also been said (api uktam) in venerable Triśirobhairavatantra (api), prior to (pūrvatas) the selection of mantra-s (mantra-uddhārasya) --the quote is starting in the next stanza--||133-136||

'And (ca) memory (smṛtiḥ) (or) the act of remembering or calling to mind --i.e. it is reflection in which experienced things are revealed without stealing (from other sources); the nature of such a memory is the Power of the Supreme Lord-- (smaraṇam) (is) firstly (pūrvam) with reference to all the objects (sarva-bhāveṣu) --(because) it is indispensable in a first statement such as the desire to obtain something, etc., (since if there is nothing to obtain, the whole statement is nonsensical; all in all), the entire ordinary life rooted in that (memory) would disappear (if one cannot remember objects)--. Its essential nature is really the Mantra --i.e. the Supreme Knower-- (vastutas mantra-svarūpam). It --lit. that-- (tad) confers the realization of the true nature of the objects (bhāvya-sva-rūpa-āpatti-yojakam)'||137||

'Memory (smṛtiḥ) generates --i.e. brings the objects being remembered to light-- the one's nature (which is separated from the present time) (svarūpa-janikā) --(because) recollection is indeed the manifestation again of the previous experience by separating (it) from the present time-- (and) manifests (clearly in its own time) (rañjikā) by remaining (avasthitena tu) everywhere (sarvatra), i.e. in all the objects (sarva-bhāveṣu), in many forms (aneka-ākāra-rūpeṇa). (Besides, it is) the attainment (samprāptiḥ) of one's own essential nature --i.e. of one's own Self-- (sva-sva-bhāvasya) (as well as) Consciousness (saṁvittiḥ) in the true sense of the word (paramārthatas), (and) the one dedicated to 'vyakti' --lit. manifestation; viz. memory is dedicated to the preceding experience whose essence is the manifestation of objects-- (vyakti-niṣṭhā).

Fullness --a State without any desire as It is not oriented to another-- (pūrṇatā) in the groups of seed mantra-s --'SAUḤ', 'KhPhREṀ', etc.-- (bīja-piṇḍeṣu) is because of the absence of 'vācya' or 'denoted by vācaka or word' --i.e. vācya is the object which is separated from the expansion in unity with Consciousness; therefore, these groups of seed mantra-s have no object to be denoted-- (vācya-abhāvāt), because of the vibration of Consciousness is 'neutral' --i.e. this vibration of Consciousness is not oriented toward outside due to a repose in one's own Self alone-- (udāsīna-saṁvid-spandāt), because of their self-vibration --or because of their self-expansion, i.e. because such groups of seed mantra-s vibrate or expand by themselves-- (sva-dhāmataḥ) (and) because of the spreading and suppression --i.e. because of the expansion oriented to prameya or knowable and because of the repose turned inward-- of the vital energy (whose nature is pramāṇa or knowledge/means of knowledge) (prāṇa-ullāsa-nirodhābhyām)||141||

And (ca) this (etad) mark --i.e. this feature connected with realization of the Self through the emergence of many colors such as blue, yellow, etc.-- (upalakṣaṇam) (is not the power of this mantra only but rather it) characterizes (lakṣayet) all the mantra-s (sarva-mantreṣu).
Whatever (yad yad) the mass of Varṇa-s --phonemes or even colors-- (varṇajālam hi) —which is 'bhautika' --lit. 'formed from gross elements', but in this context it means 'mayic and animated by duality'-- (bhautikam) (and) born from ideas (saṅkalpa-sambhūtam)— (is, all) that (tad) remains (sthitam) as (iva) 'abhautika' --i.e. the opposite to bhautika, viz. full of non-duality-- (abhautikam) due to preponderance of Consciousness (saṁvid-ādhikya-vaśāt).
For this reason (atas), (the yogī) who is established (rūḍhaḥ) in such a nature (tathāvidhe rūpe) (and) whose mind stands still (prasanna-dhīḥ), gets established (rohati) in Consciousness that is devoid of limiting attributes and whose essence is not concealed (anācchādita-rūpāyām anupādhau).
Nature of Consciousness (saṁvid-rūpam) is described (bhāṣitam) by the Guru-s --Jayaratha, in his famous commentary, has a different interpretation: 'by the Guru, viz. by Master Vāmanadatta'-- (gurubhiḥ) to be undivided (akhaṇḍitam) in blue (nīle), in yellow (pīte), in pleasure (sukhe), in pain (duḥkhe), (etc., i.e. in all the things). Therefore (tasmāt), variety (in Consciousness) (vicitratā) (is only) regarding the means (to attain It) (upāyeṣu).
By means of these (practices), viz. uccāra, karaṇa, dhyāna and varṇa (uccāra-karaṇa-dhyāna-varṇaiḥ ebhiḥ), a succession of methods or means (abhyupāya-vidhi-kramaḥ) for the attainment of the State of Anuttara (anuttara-pada-prāptau) has been shown (pradarśitaḥ).
Thinking about nothing --this pertains to Śāmbhavopāya-- (akiñcid-cintanam) is the power or vigor (vīryam) in contemplation --this is Śāktopāya-- (bhāvanāyām), and (ca) in turn (punar), it --contemplation-- (sā) (is the power or vigor) in dhyāna (dhyāne). And (ca) even (api) that --i.e. dhyāna-- (tad) (is the power or vigor) in uccāra (uccāre), and it --i.e. uccāra-- (saḥ api) (is the power or vigor) in karaṇa (karaṇe). (On the other hand,) that (karaṇa) (tad) (is the power or vigor) in dhvani or sound (dhvanau), (and) it --i.e. dhvani or sound-- (saḥ) (is the power or vigor) in sthānakalpana --a practice that will be spoken about from the sixth chapter-- (sthāna-kalpane), which is external (bāhyam). Thus (iti), (the yogī) should resort (upāśrayet) to (that) succession (kramam)||152-157||
लङ्घनेन परो योगी मन्दबुद्धिः क्रमेण तु।
वीर्यं विना यथा षण्ठस्तस्याप्यस्त्यथ वा बलम्।
मृतदेह इवेयं स्याद्बाह्यान्तःपरिकल्पना॥१५८॥
Laṅghanena paro yogī mandabuddhiḥ krameṇa tu|
Vīryaṁ vinā yathā ṣaṇṭhastasyāpyastyatha vā balam|
Mṛtadeha iveyaṁ syādbāhyāntaḥparikalpanā||158||
(While) a superior (paraḥ) yogī (yogī) --i.e. a yogī (someone who enjoys the unity with the Supreme Principle) who is regulated by intense Śaktipāta or Grace bestowal-- can skip (some practices) --lit. by leaping-- (laṅghanena), one with slow intellect (manda-buddhiḥ) should abide by the (aforesaid) succession --lit. by means of the succession-- (krameṇa) indeed (tu).
This (iyam) (set of) internal and external parikalpanā-s --it is difficult to translate 'parikalpanā' with total precision... 'a type of concentration', possibly-- (bāhya-antar-parikalpanā) is (syāt) like (yathā) an eunuch (ṣaṇṭhaḥ) without (vinā) virility (vīryam), or (better yet) (atha vā), like (iva) a dead body (mṛta-dehaḥ), (because) even in his case --i.e. even in the case of the eunuch-- (tasya api), there is (asti) (still) force (balam)||158||
इत्याणवेऽनुत्तरताभ्युपायः प्रोक्तो नयः स्पष्टपथेन बाह्यः॥१५९॥
Ityāṇave'nuttaratābhyupāyaḥ prokto nayaḥ spaṣṭapathena bāhyaḥ||159||
Thus (iti), in (the chapter dealing with) Āṇavopāya (āṇave), the means to reach the State of Anuttara (anuttaratā-abhyupāyaḥ) has been declared (proktaḥ); (in a nutshell,) the external (bāhyaḥ) (has been declared) as a clear path (to attain the State of Anuttara) (spaṣṭa-pathena)||159||
