Tantrāloka (português): Capítulo 3 - estrofes 151 a 294 - Shaivismo não dual da Caxemira
Paropāyaḥ - «A maior média [Śāmbhavopāya]»
Tradução ao português brasileiro em progresso
Introdução
This is the second and last set of stanzas (from the stanza 151 to the stanza 294) of the third chapter (called Paropāyaḥ).
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.

चवर्गः पञ्चशक्त्यात्मा क्रमप्रस्फुटतात्मकः।
या तूक्ता ज्ञेयकालुष्यभाक्क्षिप्रचरयोगतः॥१५१॥

Cavargaḥ pañcaśaktyātmā kramaprasphuṭatātmakaḥ|
Yā tūktā jñeyakāluṣyabhākkṣipracarayogataḥ||151||
Dvirūpāyāstato jātaṁ ṭatādyaṁ vargayugmakam|

[From the Power of Will --the vowel 'i'-- —which is one (and) stays in Her own essential nature—] (arises) the 'ca' group --consisting of 'ca', 'cha', 'ja, 'jha' and 'ña'-- (ca-vargaḥ) —whose essence is (also) the five Powers (pañca-śakti-ātmā)— which becomes progressively evident or manifest (krama-prasphuṭatā-ātmakaḥ) --I had to add 'in brackets' the second half of the stanza 150 to complete the sense--.
But (tu) (when the Power of Will) which (yā) was mentioned (before) (uktā) gets connected with the turbidness of the knowable (jñeya-kāluṣya-bhāk), consequently (tatas) a couple of groups (varga-yugmakam) beginning with 'ṭa' and 'ta' --viz. the five cerebrals 'ṭa', 'ṭha', 'ḍa', 'ḍha' and 'ṇa' together with the five dentals 'ta', 'tha', 'da', 'dha' and 'na'-- (ṭa-ta-ādyam) is born (jātam) from what has two forms --i.e. the vowels 'ṛ' and 'ḷ'-- (dvi-rūpāyāḥ) on account of a fast movement (kṣipra-cara-yogataḥ).
From Unmeṣa --the vowel 'u'-- (unmeṣāt) (arises) the group starting with 'pa' --viz. the five labials 'pa', 'pha', 'ba', 'bha' and 'ma'-- (pa-ādi-vargaḥ) indeed (tu), from which (yatas) the universe (viśvam) is completed (samāpyate)||151-152||

Jñeyarūpamidaṁ pañcaviṁśatyantaṁ yataḥ sphuṭam|
Jñeyatvātsphuṭataḥ proktametāvatsparśarūpakam||153||
This (universe) (idam), which is the knowable (jñeya-rūpam), extends up to twenty-five (categories) (pañca-viṁśati-antam) as (yatas) it is clearly manifest (sphuṭam). (And) since the knowable is clearly manifest (jñeyatvāt sphuṭataḥ), it is said to be (proktam) one whose form is twenty-five consonants beginning with 'ka' and ending in 'ma' --one whose form is the 'sparśa' consonants of such extent-- (etāvat-sparśa-rūpakam)||153||

And (ca) the Power of Will (icchā-śaktiḥ... sā), which (yā) is double (dvedhā) —agitated and unagitated (kṣubhita-akṣubhitatvataḥ)—, when oriented toward the aspect relating to a different power --it refers to Anuttara or 'a'-- (vijātīya-śakti-aṁśa-pronmukhī), becomes 'ya' (yāti ya-ātmatām).
That (Power of Will) Itself (sā eva), adorned by the turbidness of the knowable which has been obtained --made manifest-- by a very swift (movement) (śīghratara-upātta-jñeya-kāluṣya-rūṣitā) --i.e. the vowels 'ṛ' and 'ḷ'--, by being oriented to a different (power) --Anuttara or 'a'-- (vijātīya-unmukhatvena), becomes 'ra' and 'la' (ratvam latvam ca gacchati).
Similarly (tadvat), the Power of Unmeṣa --the vowel 'u'-- (unmeṣa-śaktiḥ) —which has two forms (dvi-rūpā), when It goes --i.e. gets oriented-- to a different power --i.e. to Anuttara or 'a'-- (vaijātya-śakti-gā), becomes the letter 'va' (va-kāratvam prapadyeta) —which rains the essence of the manifestation (sṛṣṭi-sāra-pravarṣakam)—||154-156||

Will Itself (icchā eva), when gone to Anuttara and Ānanda --i.e. when oriented toward 'a' and 'ā'-- (anuttara-ānanda-yātā), is called (ucyate) 'air' --the semivowel 'ya'-- (vāyuḥ iti) due to quickness (śīghratva-yogataḥ), 'fire' --the semivowel 'ra'-- (vahniḥ) due to brightness (bhāsanāt) (and) 'earth' --the semivowel 'la'-- (dharā) due to firmness (sthairyataḥ)||157||

Idaṁ catuṣkamantaḥsthamata eva nigadyate|
Icchādyantargatatvena svasamāptau ca saṁsthiteḥ||158||
For this very reason (atas eva), this group of four letters --i.e. the semivowels ya, ra, la and va-- (catuṣkam) is called (nigadyate) 'antaḥstha' --the one which resides within-- (antaḥstham). (Why?) Because of their remaining —inside Will, etc.— (icchā-ādi-antar-gatatvena... saṁsthiteḥ) at the point of his completion --i.e. at the point where there is manifestation, in unity, of the Self whose only form is the 'Pramātā' or 'Knower'-- (sva-samāptau ca)||158||

Kṣobhātmakamidaṁ prāhuḥ kṣobhākṣobhātmanāmapi||159||
(The sages) said (prāhuḥ) that this (idam) combination (yojanam) between Will, etc. (icchā-ādyānām) and (ca) similar powers (sajātīyaka-śaktīnām) —even if (api) (these similar powers) contain agitation or not (kṣobha-akṣobha-ātmanām)— contains agitation (kṣobha-ātmakam)||159||

Nonetheless (tu), in the combination (sājātye) of Anuttara --the vowel 'a'-- (with Itself) (anuttarasya) (there is) a double (dvitayī) possibility (gatiḥ): If (ced) there (tatra) that (tad) Anuttara (anuttaram) which (yad) (is) one (ekam) will be the master (prabhaviṣyati) over the production of Ānanda --the vowel 'ā'-- (ānanda-sūtaye), (then,) in the case of that (type of) union (tad-yoge), the combination (yogaḥ) (will) evidently (sphuṭaḥ) contain agitation (kṣobha-ātmakaḥ).
Even (api) here (atra), the second (dvitīyam api) State (dhāma) (called) Anuttara --vowel 'a'-- (anuttaram) (in combination with the first one) is not (na) adequate/sufficient (paryāptam) for generating (Ānanda --vowel 'ā'--) (sūtaye), (and) then (tadā) (remains) only (eva) the Being of Anuttara --vowel 'a'-- (anuttara-ātmatā) devoid of (vinā) agitation (kṣobham).
Will (icchā), which (yā... yā) is without (hīnā) (any) activity (karmaṇā) and (ca) adorned (rūṣitā) by what is desired (eṣṭavyena), attains (upāgatā) a state (bhāvam) (where it appears to be) triple (tridhā) through a quick and firm division (śīghra-sthairya-prabhinnena).
What is being desired (iṣyamāṇam) exists (sthitam) (as) 'not expanded (anunmiṣitam), expanding (unmīlat) (and) well expanded (pronmīlitam iti)' in this (Will) (etasyām) without falling (aparicyuteḥ) from (its) identity --from its nature-- (tādrūpyasya).
Externally (bahirbhāvya), that itself --viz. what is being desired-- (tad eva) exists (sthitam) (as) the triad of 'śa', 'ṣa' and 'sa' (śa-ṣa-sa-tritayam) which was very clearly thrown --viz. projected-- (sphuṭam kṣiptam) by its own heat (sva-ūṣmaṇā), i.e. by the impelling of the Absolute Freedom of its own Self (sva-ātma-svātantrya-preraṇa-ātmanā).
That is why (tatas eva) the universe (viśvam) shines/becomes manifest (prakāśate) so clearly (sphuṭam) in this letter 'sa' (sa-kāre asmin). The Yogī-s (yoginaḥ) call (pracakṣate) it --the letter 'sa'-- (tad) Supreme Amṛta --Supreme Imperishable-- (amṛtam... param) and (ca) Supreme Abode (param dhāma).
That (tad eva) Supreme Amṛta (para-amṛtam) Itself (eva) (exists) at the beginning, end and during the cessation of the agitation (kṣobha-ādi-anta-virāmeṣu), (and also) in the 'sīt' sound (during the tantric sexual union --which is described in the chapter 29--), in the absorption in the real being of pleasure and in samādhi --trance-- (sīt-kāra-sukha-sadbhāva-samāveśa-samādhiṣu). (And the Yogī-s) call (pracakṣate) That (tad) Itself (eva) the Supreme (paramam) Undivided (avibhaktam) Brahma (brahma)||160-167||

In venerable Kulaguhkaratantra (śrīmat-kulaguhkare) —whose name has a clear meaning --viz. the name of the book coincides with the subject being dealt with in it--, i.e. it has been obtained from the unity between the Power and the Possessor of the Power (śakti-śaktimat-aikātmya-labdha-anvartha-abhidhānake)—, the Fortunate One --the Lord-- (bhagavān eva) said (uvāca) that (tad):
'For love (snehāt) of You (tava), Viṣatattva --the principle of Viṣa, lit. Poison, all in all, Jñānaśakti or Power of Knowledge-- (viṣa-tattvam) has been revealed (by Me) (prakāśitam), whose name is anacka or without any vowels (anacka-ākhyam), which is devoid of meditation and concentration --or also, of contemplation and continuous concentration-- (dhyāna-dhāraṇa-varjitam) (and) whose form is like the cavity of a crow's beak (kāka-cañcu-puṭa-ākāram)'||168-169||

The principle (tattvam) of Kāma --lit. Desire-- (kāmasya) --viz. Icchāśakti or Power of Will--, in its fullness (pūrṇatā), is perceived (pravibhāvyate) in the union (saṅghaṭṭe). And (ca) the nectarean --or 'imperishable'-- (amṛtam) principle (tattvam) of Viṣa (viṣasya) (arises) when the state of obscurity is removed (chādyatve cyute sati) from the limited being (aṇoḥ)||170||

From which (yasmāt), Viṣa (viṣam) —the (all-)pervading (vyāptrī) Power (śaktiḥ)— obscures (chādayet) the radiance (mahas) of that which is not (all-)pervading (avyāptuḥ). The Supreme (param) State (dhāma) (called) Nirañjana --lit. Colorless-- (nirañjanam) —but (tu) Its (tasya) principle (tattvam) (is) endowed with color (sa-añjanam)— is constituted by the Power of Action --viz. Kriyāśakti-- (kriyā-śakti-ātmakam) (and) is immanent in the universe (viśva-mayam). On that account (tasmāt), (such Supreme State) shines forth (sphuret) due to It --lit. due to which, i.e. due to the presence of the Power of Action-- (yatas).
Icchā --Will-- (icchā) (is) Kāma or Desire (kāmaḥ), Jñāna --Knowledge-- (jñānam) (is) Viṣa or Poison (viṣam) (and) the Kriyā (kriyā) Goddess (devī) (is) Nirañjana or Colorless (nirañjanam).
The absorption in this triad (etad-traya-samāveśaḥ) is said to be (ucyate) Śiva (śivaḥ), i.e. Bhairava (bhairavaḥ). My --lit. our-- (nas) Guru-s (guravaḥ) said (jaguḥ) (the following:) The establishment (rūḍhim) there --in that triad-- (atra) should be performed (kuryāt) always (sadā).
After entering completely (sampraviśya) into the principle of Viṣa (viṣa-tattve), there is no (na) ghost (such as a yakṣa, etc.) (bhūtam), no (na) poison (viṣam) and (ca) no (na) graha or erroneous conception that the not-Self is the Self, (i.e. bauddhājñāna or intellectual ignorance) --lit. seizing demon or spirit-- (grahaḥ). (There,) the only (kevalaḥ) 'ahaṁ' --i.e. 'I'-- (aham iti) shines (sphuret) by means of contemplation (bhāvanayā)||171-174||

An objection (nanu): If (ced) in this context (atra) the birth (of other letters) (janma) is said to (uktam) come from eunuch letters (ṣaṇḍha-varṇebhyaḥ), then (tena), 'how (katham) is there (syāt) the state of being eunuch (ṣaṇḍhatā... iti)?'. I say --lit. we say-- (brūmaḥ): There is here no (na atra) generation (sotṛtā) from eunuch letter(s) --lit. of an eunuch letter-- (ṣaṇḍhasya).
For example (tathāhi), that agitated Power of Will (asau icchā-śaktiḥ udīritā... sā) that (yā) exists in them --in the letters-- (tatragā) produces (sūte) that which must generate (sva-kartavyam) —which resides within (antaḥstham) (and) whose form is dear to It --to the Power of Will-- (sva-iṣṭa-rūpakam)—.
From that portion (tataḥ bhāgāt) present (sthitam) in this (atra) which is to be sought or desired --i.e. the Will or vowel 'i'-- (eṣitavyam) (as) the cause of coloring (rūṣaṇā-hetuḥ) there is no (na) generation (prasavaḥ), and (ca) the turbidness (kāluṣyam... tad) born from them --from the eunuch letters-- (tad-jam) (is) Its form --the form of Will-- (tad-vapus)||175-177||

(it is Will) combined (yuktam) with the coloring of the knowable (jñeya-ārūṣaṇayā), in consequence of the absence (in it --in the eunuch letter--) of an abode for agitation and (of the absence of) the state of being an agent of agitation (kṣobhakatā-kṣobha-dhāmatva-abhāva-yogataḥ)||178||

The sages (budhāḥ) have called (prahuḥ) this (idam) (group of consonants) beginning with 'ka' and ending in 'ha' (ka-ādi-ha-antam) receptacle(s) of agitation (kṣobha-ādhāratayā).
In the union (yogi) of one of those (consonants) (tasya api) with (another) consonant (yoni-rūpeṇa), (the result) is another agitation (kṣobha-antaram vrajet). Since it is an example of that (tad-nidarśana-yogena), the state of fiftieth letter --the consonant 'kṣa'-- (pañcāśattama-varṇatā) (appears).
The two groups of four (consonants) --i.e. 'ya', 'ra', 'la', 'va' and 'śa', 'ṣa', 'sa' and 'ha'-- (catuṣkam ca catuṣkam ca) that stand firmly at the previously described stage of the knowables (called) twenty-five (sparśa consonants from 'ka' to 'ma') (pañcaviṁśaka-sañjñeya-prāgvat-bhūmi-susaṁsthitam) (are) respectively (kramāt) situated in Supreme-nonSupreme --unity in diversity-- (bheda-abheda-gatam).
The first (ādyam) group of four (consonants) (catuṣkam) --the Semivowels 'ya', 'ra', 'la' and 'va'-- is skillful at joining Consciousness with duality (saṁvitteḥ bheda-sandhāna-kovidam), (while) the other (anyat) group of four (consonants) (catuṣṭayam) --the Ūṣmā consonants ''śa', 'ṣa' and 'sa' plus the aspirate sonant 'ha'-- (is) the sole cause of an establishment of duality in non-duality (bhedasya abheda-rūḍhi-eka-hetuḥ).
In this way (ittham), all (sarvam) that (tad) which (yad) (is) a multitude of letters (varṇa-jātam) consists of vowels (svara-mayam) before (purā), because (yatas) certainly (kila), that (tad) which is animated by vowels (svara-prāṇam) (is called) consonant (vyañjanam) due to (its) manifestation (vyakti-yogāt).
Here (iha), in the succession of letters (varṇa-santatau), only (eva) a group of six vowels --viz. 'a', 'ā', 'i', 'ī', 'u' and 'ū'-- (svarāṇām ṣaṭkam) is (syāt) the root (mūlam). Those (tāḥ eva) six deities (ṣaṭ-devatāḥ tu) (are) the main (ye mukhyāḥ) rays of the sun (sūrya-raśmayaḥ). (And) since (yatas) (there are) lunar kalā-s (cāndra-kalāḥ) inside (antar) the solar rays (saurāṇām eva raśmīnām), therefore (atas) here (atra) the triad of long (vowels) --viz. 'ā', 'ī' and 'ū'-- (dīrgha-tritayam) (is) clearly the form (sphuṭam... vapus) of the moon (cāndramasam). And (ca) what is called (nāma) moon (candraḥ) is nothing but (na eva anyaḥ) the knowable --the object-- (bhogyam), which is not (ca na) different (aparam) from the knower --the subject-- (bhoktuḥ). The knower himself (bhoktā eva), in the form of the knowable (bhogya-bhāvena), exists (saṁvyavasthitaḥ) in a double state (dvaividhyāt).
(For example:) Knowability (bhogyatvam) of a pot (ghaṭasya) is not (only) (na hi) its own (svam) form (vapus), because (hi) it --knowability-- (tad) is (also) contained in the knower (mātṛ-gam). For this reason (atas), the establishment (yā rūḍhiḥ sā) in the knower (mātari) is said to be (ucyate) its --of the pot or any other object-- (asya) knowability (bhogyatvam).
Anuttara --vowel 'a'-- (anuttaram), reaching unification (saṅghaṭṭa-rūpatām prāptam) by means of the state of being conscious --the subject-- and of that which is to be conscious of --the object-- (parāmṛśya-parāmarśaka-bhāvataḥ), (becomes) the knowable --the object-- (bhogyam), in the same way (tathā) as in the case of Will, etc. (icchā-ādikaṁ).
When Will --vowel 'i'--, etc. becomes a knowable (icchā-ādye bhogyatām gate) with respect to the stages of Anuttara --vowel 'a'-- and Ānanda --vowels 'ā'-- (anuttara-ānanda-bhuvām), (then) there is an emergence (udayaḥ) of the diphthongs --vowels 'e' and 'o' followed by 'ai' and 'au'-- (sandhi-akṣarāṇām). (This group of diphthongs) is said to be (ca kathyate) of the nature of the knower (bhoktṛ-rūpam).
Only (eva) the God (devaḥ) who consists of Anuttara --vowel 'a'-- and Ānanda --vowel 'ā'-- (anuttara-ānanda-mayaḥ) is said to be (kathyate) the Knower (bhoktā). (The group of) Will, etc. (icchā-ādikam) (is) the knowable (bhogyam). Hence (tatas eva) its --of the group of Will, etc.-- (asya) state of being a power (śaktitā) --in other words, that is why they, i.e. Will, etc., are powers--.
If (ced) the knowable (bhogyam) is dissolved (līnam) in the knower (bhoktari), therefore (tad) (only) the knower (bhoktā), as a matter of fact (vastutas), is evident --i.e. it is real-- (sphuṭaḥ). Consequently (atas), the aggregate of three (trikam) composed of vowel 'a', vowel 'i' and vowel 'u' (cit-iṣi-unmeṣaṇa-ātmakam) (is) the essence (sāram) of the six --i.e. vowels 'a', 'ā', 'i', ī', 'u' and 'ū'-- (ṣaṇṇām).
(The sages) called (prāhuḥ) that (tad) triad (tritayam) the Supreme (param) Radiance (mahas) of Bhairava (bhairavasya). That (tad) triad (trikam) is celebrated (pragīyate) as the Perfect/Full (pūrṇā) Power (śaktiḥ) of the Supreme Lord (parama-īśasya). As (yatas) the universe (viśvam) is projected (ākṣiptam) by it --by the aforesaid triad-- (tena), therefore (atas), when this one --the triad-- is worshiped (asmin samupāsite), worship (upāsanam) of the Unlimited (Lord) (avaccheda-vandhye) who possesses the universal Power --or 'who possesses all the powers'-- (viśva-śaktau) is born (jātam).
Thus (iti), it cannot really (be said) (tāvat na śakyate) 'this (eṣaḥ) Greatness (of His) (mahimā) is of such extent (etāvān iti)'. Who (kaḥ) could limit the Power (śakti-paricchidām) of the One who has unlimited Power (aparicchinna-śakteḥ)? Therefore (tasmāt), the God (devaḥ) Anuttara (anuttaraḥ), through (His) Anuttara State which is Absolute Freedom (svācchandya-anuttaratvataḥ) (and) by means of the union with the Power of Emission (visarga-śakti-yuktatvāt), assumes (sampannaḥ) the form of the universe (viśva-rūpakaḥ).
In this manner (evam), the Great Lord (mahā-īśvaraḥ), who is the Perfect Power (appearing in the form of) fifty (types of) consciousness (pañcāśat-āmarśa-pūrṇa-śaktiḥ), being Vimarśa --i.e. the Supreme Power-- (vimarśa-ātmā), (remains anyway) only one (ekaḥ eva), there being (niṣṭhitāḥ) in Him --i.e. here-- (atra) also (eva) other (anyāḥ) powers (śaktayaḥ).
The eighty-one footed --eighty-one mātrā-s-- (ekāśīti-padāḥ) Goddess (devī) is undoubtedly contained in here (hi atra antarbhāvayiṣyate) --viz. in the fifty letters--. When the essential nature (of the pramātā or knower) is only one consciousness (eka-āmarśa-svabhāvatve), that (saḥ) (is) Bhairava (bhairavaḥ), the mass of sounds (śabda-rāśiḥ). (And) by means of (yogāt) the shadow of what is to be conscious of (āmṛśya-chāyayā), that (sā eva) (is) the Power (śaktiḥ) and (ca) the Mātṛkā (mātṛkā). She --the Power-- (sā), by association with the mass of sounds (śabda-rāśi-saṅghaṭṭāt), (becomes) Mālinī (mālinī), which certainly contains mixed consonants --i.e. consonants mixed with vowels-- (bhinna-yoniḥ tu).
(However,) Her nature turns into (nine) separate groups (pṛthak-varga-svarūpiṇī) when Consciousness (āmarśāt) becomes ninefold (navatayā) as before (prāk-vat). But (tu) when there is an establishment in Consciousness one by one (eka-eka-āmarśa-rūḍhau), She Herself (sā eva) becomes fifty (pañcāśat-ātmikā).
In this way (ittham), He is One whose essential nature is Supreme Consciousness --vowel 'a'-- (parāmarśa-svabhāvakaḥ) through the contact with Nāda --consonant 'ha'-- (nāda-anuvedhena). Śiva (śivaḥ), being Mother and Father (mātā-pitṛtvena), remains (saṁsthitaḥ) as the Doer (kartā) everywhere (viśvatra).
This (ayam) Emission (visargaḥ) of Śakti (śāktaḥ), (appearing) as the Śiva's Bindu (śiva-bindutayā) —i.e. having the infinite universe as an embryo (in Itself --in the Emission--) (garbhī-kṛta-ananta-viśvaḥ)— again (punar), becomes Anuttara (śrayate anuttara-ātmatām).
The Supreme Consciousness --viz. Aham-- (parāmarśaḥ saḥ eva) of the Lord (prabhoḥ), which --i.e. the Supreme Consciousness-- (yaḥ) resides in His own Self that is the essence within the unlimited universe (aparicchinna-viśva-antar-sāre sva-ātmani), is said to be (uktaḥ) characterized by duality --lit. a double type of existence-- (dvaya-sampatti-lakṣaṇaḥ).
The Supreme Consciousness (parāmarśaḥ) of the All-pervading One (vibhoḥ), in the non-dualistic Self of Śiva and Śakti, i.e. of Anuttara and (Its) Emission (anuttara-visarga-ātma-śiva-śakti-advaya-ātmani), is called (ucyate) 'ahaṁ' --lit. 'I'-- (aham iti) because It is Full (nirbharatvāt).
The Streaming --i.e. Emission-- (prasṛtiḥ... sā) beginning with Anuttara --with 'a'-- (anuttara-ādyā) (and) ending in 'ha' (ha-antā), whose essential nature is Śakti (śakti-svarūpiṇī) (and) by which the entire universe is withdrawn (pratyāhṛta-aśeṣa-viśvā), is dissolved (nilīyate) in Anuttara (anuttare).
This very (tad idam) universe (viśvam) dwells inside (antar-stham) Śakti (śaktau), (and) She (sā) (dwells) inside the Supreme Anuttara --in Śiva-- (anuttare pare). That (tad) 'which (resides) in Her' --in Śakti-- (tasyām iti) (is) truly (yad satyam) an encapsulation (sampuṭī-kṛtiḥ) (brought about) by the All-pervading One (vibhunā). The encapsulation (sampuṭitākṛtiḥ) of Śakti (śakteḥ) (was described) by Him (tena) in the venerable scripture known as (Parā)trīśikā (śrī-trīśikā-śāstre).
The universe --consonant 'ha'-- (yad viśvam) shines (bhāti) in Saṁvitti --lit. Consciousness, i.e. Anuttara or vowel 'a'-- (saṁvittau), and there too --in Saṁvitti-- (tatra api) (does) certainly (shine) (khalu) Saṁvidā --a repose on That, i.e. Bindu (ṁ)-- (saṁvidā). This very triad --Saṁvitti ('a'), universe ('ha') and Saṁvidā ('ṁ')-- (tad etad tritayam), combining (saṅghātatām gatam) in pairs (dvandva-yogāt), (constitutes) the sole (ekam eva) Supreme (param) Form or Nature (rūpam) of Bhairava (bhairavasya) consisting of 'Ahaṁ' (aham-ātmakam).
The Emitting Power (visarga-śaktiḥ) that (yā) belongs to Śambhu --Śiva-- (śambhoḥ) exists (sā... vartate) everywhere (sarvatra) in this way (ittham): This (ayam) whole (samastaḥ) amorous play of pleasure and joy (ānanda-rasa-vibhramaḥ) (comes) from That alone --from the Emitting Power of the Lord-- (tatas eva). For instance (tathāhi), that very (asau... sā eva) vibration in identity with That --with Śiva-- (spanda-mānatā), which (springs) in the heart (yā... hṛdaye) when indifference ceases (mādhyasthya-vigame) during a sweet song (madhure gīte) or (vā) contact (sparśe), (or) on (smelling) sandal, etc. (candana-ādike), is called (uktā) the Power of Bliss (ānanda-śaktiḥ). Because of this (yatas), a person (janaḥ) (is said) to have a heart (sa-hṛdayaḥ)||180-210||

Firstly (pūrvam), all that is to be emitted (visṛjya-sakalaṁ) must be placed (kartavyam) on the fire of vacuity (śūnyatā-anale). This (ayam) 'āṇava' (emission) --lit. relative to the aṇu or limited being-- (āṇavaḥ) goes by the name of 'a repose of the mind' (citta-viśrānti-sañjñaḥ).
Then (tadanantaram), the orientation towards one's own Consciousness on the part of those things which were seen, heard, etc. (dṛṣṭa-śruta-ādi-tad-vastu-pronmukhatvam sva-saṁvidi) is said (uktaḥ) to have the name of 'enlightenment of the mind' (citta-sambodha-nāma), (and it is 'śākta' emission because) it consists of an excess of splendor and joy of Śakti (śākta-ullāsa-bhara-ātmakaḥ).
Under those circumstances (tatra), by means of the union of those things being oriented (that way) (unmukhatva-tad-vastu-saṅghaṭṭāt), by means of a establishment (rūḍheḥ) of those things --lit. of that thing-- (vastunas) in the Heart (hṛdi), by means of a penetration (āveśāt) furnished with Fullness (pūrṇatayā), by means of a dissolution of the limited mind (mita-citta-layāt) in Śiva (śive), by means of the dissolution of any possible limitation due to a future orientation as before (prāk-vat-bhaviṣyat-aunmukhya-sambhāvya-mitatā-layāt), (there is) that (asau) supreme (paraḥ) 'śāmbhava' (śāmbhavaḥ) emission (visargaḥ) whose name is 'dissolution of the mind' (citta-pralaya-nāma)||211-214||

Consequently (atas), the triple emission (visarga-traidham) is described (ucyate) in Tattvarakṣāvidhāna (tattvarakṣāvidhāne): 'The union (saṅghaṭṭaḥ) of the two (tayoḥ) is maintained (iṣyate) to reside in the middle of the calyx of the heart lotus (hṛt-padma-kośa-madhya-sthaḥ).
This (union) (saḥ ca) characterized by a repose of the mind (citta-viśrānti-lakṣaṇaḥ) is called (proktaḥ) the last (antaḥ) emission (visargaḥ) --viz. the āṇava emission--.
Anyway (tu), the second emission (dvitīyaḥ saḥ visargaḥ) is characterized by the enlightenment of the mind (citta-sambodha-lakṣaṇaḥ) --viz. śākta emission--. This (etad) universe (jagat) composed of animate and inanimate (cara-acaram) shines (vibhāti) unified (ekī-bhūtam) here --in the second emission-- (atra).
(The second emission is divided into two subtypes:) When (yadā) here --in the second emission-- (atra) it is maintained (iṣyate) that (there is) indeed (vai) some (kiñcid) differentiation in the form of knowable and knower (grāhya-grāhaka-bhedaḥ), then (tadā) that (subtype) (asau) is said to be (proktaḥ) sakala --endowed with parts-- (sakalaḥ), (but, if the process of emission occurs) through the union with Śiva (śiva-yogataḥ), (then it is said to be) niṣkala --without parts-- (niṣkalaḥ).
The third emission (tṛtīyaḥ saḥ visargaḥ tu), consisting of a full apprehension due to the cessation of knowable and knower (grāhya-grāhaka-vicchitti-sampūrṇa-grahaṇa-ātmakaḥ), is characterized by the dissolution of the mind (citta-pralaya-lakṣaṇaḥ). It is unification (ekī-bhāva-ātmakaḥ) (where) the subtle (sūkṣmaḥ) knowledge (vijñāna-ātmā) is extinguished in the Self (ātma-nirvṛtaḥ)'||215-219||

This (ayam) topic --lit. thing-- (arthaḥ) has been discussed (nirūpitaḥ) in venerable Siddhayogīśvarīmata (śrī-siddhayogīśvarīmate): "Here (atra) that (sā) Kuṇḍalinī (kuṇḍalinī) (is) the Seed (bījam) who is Life (jīva-bhūtā) (and) whose essence is Consciousness (cit-ātmikā). The triad (trikam) whose name is Dhruva --vowel 'a'--, Icchā --vowel 'i'-- and Unmeṣa --vowel 'u'-- (dhruva-icchā-unmeṣa-ākhyam) is born from Her (tad-jam), (and) from that (triad) (tatas), again (punar), (the rest of) letters (varṇāḥ) (arise).
From Visarga (visargāt) (is produced the group of letters) that begins (ādi) in the letter (kāra) "ka" (ka) (and) ends --anta-- (antāt) in the letter (kāra) "sa" (sa). And (ca), (in turn,) that (Visarga) (saḥ) (appears) in five ways (pañcadhā):
(1) Outside, (in the form of the universe) (bahis) and (ca... ca) (2) inside (antar), (3) in the heart (hṛdaye), (4) in Nāda --i.e. in the throat in this case-- (nāde) (and) certainly (atha) (5) in the Supreme (parama) Stage (pade) --i.e. between both of eyebrows--. (Besides,) that (saḥ) Bindu --i.e. Visarga-- (binduḥ) undoubtedly (hi) pervades (vyāpakaḥ) from the heart (hṛdayāt) up to the top (antam) of the skull (mūrdha), (that is), up to the Self (Himself) (ātmani).
However (tu), the mantra-s (mantrāḥ) devoid (vihīnāḥ) of initial (ādi) 'a' (a) (and) final (antya) 'ma' (ma) --i.e. devoid of 'ahaṁ' or 'I', viz. Śiva--, are (syuḥ) like (vat) autumnal (śarat) clouds (abhra)"||220-223||

"The (essential) characteristic (laksaṇam) of a Guru (guroḥ) (is that) he explains (to his disciples) (ca vedayet) (that Mahāmantra or Great Mantra) whose measure (etāvat) (is as follows:) It begins (ādi) with 'a' (a) (and) ends (antyam) with 'ma' (ma) --i.e. 'ahaṁ' or I, viz. Śiva--. The Knower (jñānī), (that) Divine (devatā-ātmakaḥ) Bhairava (bhairavaḥ), is to be worshiped (pūjyaḥ) like (iva) Myself (saḥ aham)"||224||

"Seeing that (yatas) --to such a Guru-- any thing (yad-kiñcid), whether it be a hymn of praise (śloka), a laudatory song (ghāthā), etc. (ādi), is united or connected (yutam) with (the Mahāmantra or Great Mantra) beginning (ādi) with 'a' (a) (and) ending (antya) with 'ma' (ma); therefore (tasmāt), (such a Guru) knowing (vidan) in that way (tathā), sees (paśyati) everything (sarvam) only (eva) as a Mantra (mantratvena)"||225||

In the Upaniṣad called Aitareya (aitareya-ākhya-vedānte), the Emitting Power (visarga-śaktiḥ) as being the cause (kāraṇam ca) of the universe (viśvasya) has been described (nirūpitā) in detail (vistarāt) by the Supreme Lord (parama-īśena)||226||

That (tad) which (yad) (is) red (lohitam) (is) fire (agniḥ), (that) which (yad) (is) vigor (vīryam) has sun and moon as its body (sūrya-indu-vigraham). (The vowel) 'a' (a iti) (is) the Supreme Brahma (brahma paramam) who rises from their --of fire, sun and moon-- union (tad-saṅghaṭṭa-udaya-ātmakam)||227||

His (tasya api) supreme (param) vigor (vīryam) consists of sounds, touches and flavors (śabda-sparśa-rasa-ātmakam) and (ca) is food (anna-rūpam) —composed of the kalā-s of the five gross elements (pañca-bhūta-kalā-ātmakam)— to be enjoyed (bhogyatvena)||228||

Since (yasmāt) even (api) a sweet (madhuraḥ) sound (śabdaḥ) causes an increase in vigor (vīrya-upacaya-kārakaḥ), therefore (tad hi), (such a) vigor (vīryam) is considered (matam) to be supreme (param), pure (śuddham) (and) desirous of emitting (visisṛkṣā-ātmakam)||229||

That --the aforesaid rituals-- (tad) (creates the vigor) in the rain (vṛṣṭau). (The vigor of the rain is the vigor) in the plants (sauṣadhīṣu), (and) likewise (atha), again (punar), those (plants are the vigor) (tāḥ) in the vigor (vīrye). And (ca) that --the vigor-- (tad) (is) in the creatures (prajāsu). In this manner (evam), the multiplicity of forms (viśva-rūpatā) (lies) in the emission (visarge)||230-231||

This (Mālinī) (eṣā) really (vastutas) (is) only one (ekā eva), Supreme (parā) (and) the One who attracts the time (kālasya karṣiṇī). Because of a (subtle) duality with the Possessor of the Power --i.e. with Śiva-- (śaktimat-bheda-yogena), She becomes a pair or couple (yāmalatvam prapadyate)||234||

Even (api) their --of the three above-mentioned levels of speech-- (tāsām) nature (rūpaṁ) (is) triple (tridhā). There (tatra), the gross Paśyantī (sā sthūlā... paśyantī) (is) the one which (yā) (appears as) Nāda (nāda-rūpiṇī) (and is) beautiful with a succession of tones (svara-sandarbha-subhagā) on account of the absence of division into letters, etc. (varṇa-ādi-apravibhāgataḥ).
Sweetness (mādhuryam) (there) is said to be (ucyate) a power (śaktiḥ) whose sole form is absence of division (a-vibhāga-eka-rūpatvam). The clear (sound) presence (sphuṭatā eva ca) arisen from the collision of the air, etc. and the organs of phonation (sthāna-vāyu-ādi-gharṣa-utthā) (is) hard (pāruṣī).
Therefore (tad), absorption (tanmayī-bhūtiḥ) in this which is Nāda (asyām nāda-rūpāyām) —as it --Nāda-- is close to Consciousness (saṁvid-savidha-vṛttitaḥ)— (is) instantly (jhagiti eva) obtained (upalabhyate) due to homogeneousness (of Consciousness) (sājātyāt).
They (te) (are) certainly (tu) 'devoid of heart' (a-hṛdayāḥ iti) in whom (yeṣām) there is no (na) (such) identification (tanmayī-bhūtiḥ), who do not know (avidantaḥ) the immersion of the body, etc. (deha-ādi-nimajjanam) (or) who, immersed, experience (only) the limited consciousness (magna-saṁvid-mānāḥ).
(There is) this (eṣaḥ) sound (dhvaniḥ) which (yaḥ) there (tatra) (is) something (kiñcid) that (yad) comes from a drum --lit. that is in (something) covered with skin--, etc. (carmāvanaddha-ādi). Such sound --lit. it-- (saḥ) (is) the gross form of Madhyamā (madhyamā sthūla-rūpiṇī) since it is both distinct and indistinct (sphuṭa-asphuṭa-rūpatvāt).
In the case of Madhyamā (madhyāyāḥ ca), (one can affirm that she is) attractive (raktatā) because of the existence (in her) of a non-dualistic portion (avibhāga-aṁśa-sadbhāvaḥ iti). (As) she consists of non-dualistic sounds (avibhāga-svara-mayī), that (tad) excessive charming (su-rañjakam) exists (syāt) in her (yatra).
Non-duality --absence of differences-- (avibhāgaḥ) (is) clearly (hi... dṛśyatām) for the pleasure (nirvṛtyai). (Everyone) is indeed quite satisfied with (kila... parituṣyati) that melody --lit. sound-- containing indistinct --i.e. not manifest-- sounds (avyakta-dhvanau tasmin vādane) (which come) from a trill --lit. a song-- arising from the cavity of a beak (tāla-pāṭhataḥ).
The gross Vaikharī (sā sthūlā vaikharī) —whose (yasyāḥ) work (kāryam) (is to bring about) sentences, etc. (vākya-ādi) in a high degree (bhūyasā)— (is the one) which (yā tu) is (bhavet) the cause (kāraṇam) of the production (utpattau) of clearly manifest letters (sphuṭānām varṇānām).
That (tad) triad (tritayam) is called (abhiśabdyate) 'subtle (sūkṣmam iti)' which (yad), separately --each of them separately-- (pṛthak pṛthak), (is) the intention (tad-anusandhānam) preceding --lit. coming first-- (ādivat) this gross group of three --gross Paśyantī, gross Madhyamā and gross Vaikharī-- (asmin sthūla-traye).
'I emit (karomi) the first --or the fourth-- primary note of music (ṣaḍjam)', 'I play sweetly a musical instrument (madhuram vādayāmi)', 'I say (bruve) words (vacaḥ)': This group of three intentions (anusandhāna-trayam), separately (pṛthak eva), is certainly perceptible (saṁvedyate kila).
That (tad) triad (tritayam) there (tatra) (is) supreme (param) whose nature is unconditioned (rupam anupādhimat) (and) which (yad) immediately precedes (ādyam) this (aforesaid) group of three (subtle levels of speech) (etasya api trayasya). (It is) Śiva (śivaḥ), viz. Supreme Consciousness (para-cit-ātmakaḥ).
And (ca) when the (supreme) division becomes manifest (vibhāga-ābhāsanāyām), three (tisraḥ) Powers (śaktayaḥ) (are) here (atra) the main ones (mukhyāḥ): Supreme Anuttarā --i.e. the Supreme Power of Anuttara, the vowel 'a'-- (anuttarā parā) and (ca) the Will (icchā) which is Supreme-nonSupreme (para-aparatayā sthitā), (together with) the Power of Unmeṣa (unmeṣa-śaktiḥ) —called Knowledge (jñāna-ākhyā tu)— which is said to be (nigadyate) 'nonSupreme' (aparā iti)||237-249||

Again (punar), from their agitation --from the agitation of 'a', 'i' and 'u', i.e. Anuttara, Will and Unmeṣa-- (kṣobha-rūpāt... tāsām), (arise) six (ṣaṭ) kinds of immaculate consciousness (saṁvidaḥ amalāḥ) which have (already) been mentioned (uktāḥ) --i.e. 'a', 'ā', 'i', 'ī', 'u' and 'ū'--.
By means of the absorption (samāveśāt) of these ones (āsām eva), which --the absorption-- has sprung (uditāt) as the Power of Action (kriyā-śaktitayā), twelve (kinds of) consciousness --all the vowels except the eunuch ones, i.e. 'ṛ', 'ṝ', 'ḷ' and 'ḹ'-- (saṁvidaḥ dvādaśa) are declared (to arise) (proktāḥ), in which (yāsu) all (sarvam) is brought to an end (samāpyate).
Such (a set of twelve vowels) (etāvat... tad) (is) the main (mukhyam) group of powers (śakti-cakrakam) of the God of gods (deva-devasya). So then (etāvatā), the God of gods (deva-devaḥ) in the fullness of His Power (pūrṇa-śaktiḥ) (is) Bhairava (saḥ bhairavaḥ).
Somewhere --in some other scripture-- (kvacid) those (twelve vowels) (tāḥ) are called (proktāḥ) Kālikā-s (kālikāḥ) because they are knowledge (jñānāt) (and) because they destroy the limits (iyattā-kalanāt) (and) because they are associated with the projection or emission (visarga-ākṣepa-yogataḥ) in the form of Supreme Consciousness (para-āmarśa-ātmakatvena).
In venerable (Trika)sāra scripture (śrī-sāra-śāstre ca api) it is declared (uktam): 'One should worship (pūjayet) the Supreme One-syllabled One (eka-akṣarāṁ parām) —who is called the nature or being of Bhairava (bhairava-ātma-ākhyām)— in the middle (madhye) (and) surrounded by the twelve Yoginī-s (yoginī-dvādaśa-āvṛtām)'.
From them --from the twelve vowels who are Kālikā-s-- (tābhyaḥ eva) proceed --lit. proceeds-- (pravartate) (all the) group(s) or wheel(s) of powers (śakti-cakrakam), beginning (samārabhya) from the one-spoked one (eka-arataḥ) (and) ending in the sixty-four(-spoked) one (catuḥṣaṣṭi-paryantam) (or even) in the one-thousand-spoked one (sahasra-araṁ).
In the revealed scriptures (āgame) they are given (tāsām ca) names (nāmāni) in many ways (bahudhā) according to their type of activity (kṛtya-bhedena). And (ca) (their) worshiping (upāsāḥ) (must be performed) in accordance with (their) dualistic, non-dualistic or mixed forms or aspects (dvaya-advaita-vyāmiśra-ākāra-yogataḥ). In venerable Traiśirama (śrīmat-traiśirame), those things --lit. that-- (tad ca) are talked about (kathitam) in great detail (vistarāt bahu). Here (iha), (all that) is not (na) written (likhitam) out of fear of expanding too much (vyāsa-bhayāt) and (ca) because it is useless (anupayogataḥ).
Those (powers) (tāḥ) are said to be (parikīrtitāḥ) spotless (nirmalāḥ), pure (śuddhāḥ) (and) Aghorā-s --Not terrible-- (aghorāḥ), (and) by generating (sotṛtvāt ca) the Ghorā-s --Terrible-- and Ghoratarā-s --also called Ghoratarī-s, lit. More terrible-- (ghora-ghoratarāṇām tu), they --i.e. the Aghorā-s-- have their nature --i.e. the nature of Ghorā-s and Ghoratarā-s/Ghoratarī-s-- (tad-ātmikāḥ). (They --the Aghorā-s-- exist) in manifestation (sṛṣṭau), maintenance (sthitau) (and) dissolution (saṁhāre) (of the universe, and also) when those three limiting conditions --i.e. manifestation, maintenance and dissolution of the universe-- disappear (tad-upādhi-traya-atyaye). Their (tāsām eva) invariable (sthitam) form or nature (rūpam) is divided (pravibhajyate) in many ways (bahudhā).
That (tad) form or nature (rūpam) which (yad) is beyond the limiting conditions (upādhi-atītam) (is) double (dvidhā), the Guru-s (guravaḥ) declared (jaguḥ), viz.: (1) When there is no appearance (an-ullāsāt) of (such) limiting conditions (upādhīnām) --i.e. before the appearance of the three aforesaid limiting conditions-- or else (yadvā) (2) in consequence of the cessation (of those limiting conditions) (praśama-yogataḥ) --i.e. after the disappearance of the three above-mentioned limiting conditions--.
And (ca) cessation (of those limiting conditions called manifestation, maintenance and dissolution) (praśamaḥ) (is) double (dvidhā): (1) Peacefully (śāntyā) or (tu) (2) by the method of 'digesting violently' (haṭha-pāka-krameṇa). (This second method) is (also) called 'the one which has a taste for devouring (it all)' (alaṅgrāsa-rasa-ākhyena) (and appears) constantly (satatam) as a flame (jvalana-ātmanā).
That (tad eva ca) which (yad) consists in securing of (the method of) digesting violently (haṭhapāka-praśamanam) (is) the third (one) (tṛtīyam), (and, since) it burns the fuel of differentiation --of duality-- (bheda-indhana-vidāhakam), it is worthy (yujyeta) of being taught (upadeśāya)||250-261||

एतन्मयत्वं परमं प्राप्यं निर्वर्ण्यते शिवम्॥२९३॥
Bhāvinyo'pi hyupāsāstā atraivāyānti niṣṭhitim|
Etanmayatvaṁ paramaṁ prāpyaṁ nirvarṇyate śivam||293||
Even (api hi) the future types of worship (bhāvinyaḥ... upāsāḥ tāḥ) find fulfillment (āyānti niṣṭhitim) here (atra eva). This (etad) identification (mayatvam) with Śiva (śivam) is said to be (nirvarṇyate) the supreme (paramam) goal (prāpyam)||293||
इति कथितमिदं सुविस्तरं परमं शाम्भवमात्मवेदनम्॥२९४॥
Iti kathitamidaṁ suvistaraṁ paramaṁ śāmbhavamātmavedanam||294||
Thus (iti), this (idam) supreme (paramam) Knowledge about the Self (ātma-vedanam) pertaining to Śambhu --i.e. Knowledge here pertains to Śiva-- (śāmbhavam) has been spoken about (kathitam) (here) in great detail (su-vistaram)||294||
