It is needless to say thet contributions of Keshmir to Senskrit literature are remarkable. Apart from the other branches of literature, wonderful discover- 4es of the Kashmirian Scholars and saints in the sphere of the Advaita Saiva philosophy of India are no doubt, worth noting. The recent publications, bearing the title of "Kashmir Series of texts and studies" by the State Government throw light on the philosophical and spiritual lives of the scholars the country has produced. All their philosophic and religious teachings, known as Keshmir Saiviem rather Trika Sasana of Kashmir give us the correct estimate of the spiritual fervour and the literary zeal of the age. As a matter of fact the trike dargana of Kasimir comprises its various aspects in itself and represents the unity of the three principles which are elaborately 4iscussed in their proper place. The present work, Malini Vejayottera Tantra, is chiefly connected with the Trike School and Abhinava Gupta, a great scholer and sage of the 10th century A.D., has regarded it es an authority on it. From the beginning of my literary career, I was influenced by the Saiva and $akta oult of Kashmir not because it belongs to my native place but because it prosents the Gaiva metaphysics in ite true perspective. I made up my mind to study this Philosophy and, therefore, consulted Shri J.0,Chatterji, the late Superintendent of the Government Research Library, Srinagar. He suagested to me the present work, Malini Vejayottara Tantra as fi. thesis for the degree of Ph.D. ‘ The study of the Kashmir Saiva School cannot be complete unless the teachings of Malini Vijayottara vantra are brought into light. The work is primarily ' associated with the Trika Sohool and contains all its externals and fundamentals in it in brief: I have divided tho work into three parts: first conteins the theoritical and practical teachings of Malini, the second deals with the summaries of the text Chapterwise, English translation and elucidation of some doctrinal points and the third contains appendices’ and Index. The work, 1s obviously difficult due to its occult teachings and obscure technical terms, used for 5 the formation of mantras. I mey mention that one of the difficulties that stood in my way in connection with this thesis is the paucity of authoritative work on the Sehool in general | and on Walini literature in particular. | How far I have succeeded in my present attempt of the elucidation of the Malini intricacies may be judged by the students in future. I em very grateful to Pt. Laksmana Ju, a great | | | scholar and saint of Kashmir, and Mahamahopadhyaya Pt. Gopi Nath Ji Kaviraj, M.A. of Banaras, a jiearned scholar of the Indian philosophies in general and an authority | on the Kashmir Gaivism in particular who helped mo to | thenkful to Dr. Surya Kanta Ji.M.A.,D.Litt., Head of the Sanskrit Department, Hindu University, Banaras, who mi guided me in my theais. Luatly I offer my hearty thanks to my colleague Professor P.N.Qazi, of the Government Gollege for Women, Srinagar, who helped me in my dootrinal | and linguistio difficulties.

(a) The term, ‘Malini*, 18 used in a technical ! \ ! sense and chiefly means Sakti, an inherent nature of Siva. The name of the work is based on it. In the lst. adhi. of Ma., the author has stated it as ‘Maya’ and asoribed' all the qualities of the Absolute to it. In the 3rd. adhi., 4t 4s saa to be Iooha,. trom which the phenomenal multi- plicity emanates. The further developments of Iooha Sakti ere jivana and Kriya daktis. This Sakti, in its transcendent state, 19: one with Siva and has no its distinctive character. | This supreme will or Sakti of Sive, in the state of mani- ‘ festation, assumes various titles. For exumple, in connec- | tion with the origin of letters, the bexta is named as i Malini or Matrka in the 3rd. adhi. of the work. The two terms, 'Matrka’ and ‘Malini’, are firstly | applied as synonyms and represent the Vaikhari state in which words (Sevaa) and their meanings (artha) emerge out separately in the form of Yacaka and Vacya. But later on, the two new terms, ‘Abhinnayoni Malini* (whose Yoni or consonants are not impregnated by the vowels) and bhinnayoni (whose Yoni 1s impregnated by vowels) are applied to Matrka and Malindi, which have basically separated them. Now, by the Matra or Abhinnayoni Walini we mean that dakt4 trom which all letters spring up in the form of vowels and conso- nants. Simflarly the Malini or bhinayoni Malini signifies | the order of apphabet in which the vowels ov consonants are oco-mingled, The alphabetical order of the Malini school i begins from ‘na’ and ends in ‘pha’ and hence sometimes it 4g called ‘Nadi Phanta’ Malini, This co-mingling of the vowels end consonants in the alphabetical order implies the extreme type of monism (perema-advaite) which was agreeable to its exponents. Both, Malini (bhinnayoni malini) and Matrka (abhinnayoni malini), regarded as two $aktis, represent two separate schools, connected with the Trika form of Kashair Saiviem, . They strictly follow the fundamental principles of the Trika Sohool and represent themselves as its parts. The basic distinction between the two is their alphabetical order. The Watrka Schocl admits two classes of letters, vowels and consonants, technically called yija end yoni... These two clessss are again divided into nine groups in the following:— : 1. Avarga (sixteen vowels), 2. Kavarga, 5. Cavares, 4. Tevarga, 5. Tavarga, 6. Pavarga, 7. Yavarea, 8. Savarga, 9. Kaa (Ma., III, 9-11)- , The Malini School has co-mingled vowels and conso- nants and its alphabetical order is as undert— Na, Tr, r, ir, lr, tha, oa, dha, 4, na, U, Uy ba, ka, kha, ga, eha, na, 1 a, va, bha, yas aa, dha, tha, Jha, Ja, re, ta, pa, oha, 1a, a, sa, ah, ha, sa, kaa, ma, sa, am, ta, ey al, o, au, da, pha. This curious alphabetical order was in vogue in the 10th oentury A.D. when Abhinava Gupta, the founder of : Watrka School, flourished. He respected Malini vijayottare’ tentra in which the Malini gekt{ (bhinnayoni Malini) 16 ! glorified. As a mattor of fact, his chief work «, Fantra- loke, 48 just 11ke a commentary on the Malini School. The Ss. eemamecgout ioteteteie No later writer or Trike Ree written anything about it.

The origin of the thirty-five tattvas from the letters of the Malini school in the ascending order 1s different from that of the above mentioned Matrka.

(>) The work represents itself as a class of the @ Agama Sastra, the authorship of which 1s attributed to Sive® himself. It cannot be denied that it is understood as an @ authority om the Trika form of Kashmir Saivism (of. Trike- @ sarem malinimatan, T.A., I.). The work, as its contents point out,"mentions!varsoual types or thetnalya saanael The striking feature of the work, which distinguishes it from the other trika literature, is its equal emphasis on the dootrine (jnana) and practice (Kriya). Due to this special characteristic, we oan emphatically declare that the work discloses its psycho-physicel nature. ! The fundemental objective of the work is Siva- Yosa, Bivadvaita or dankara Yoga (identity of the limited self with the supreme self). In the very beginning of the@ lst. adhi., we learn that the sages, Narada, Samvarta, etc. O inepired by Sakti, come to Kartikeya, son'of Sankara and @ Uma, who 18 the killer of Taraka, the demon, with a view to @ 1 learn Siva-Yoga. The system lays much stress on the e initiation (diksa), without which the Siva-Yoga, the desti- @ nation of human striving, cannot be achieved. The systen @ hea obviously stated that those, who, according to the Saiva® tenets, are unified with ae the Infinite, never become animals eaain (of. Na bhuyah pabutameti duddhe svatmand tigthati, Ma. I, 47). The chief theme of the work is removal of the tat 1 Pawu-bhava (animal state) end the attainment of the Siva- hood. or the achievement of this end, the author of the work has followed the popular schools, the School of Know- ledge (jnane-marga), expounded by the Upanisads and the advaita Vedanta and the School of Yoga, founded by Patanjali, and represented them in a synthesized form. The Vedanta believes that the mental disoipline is a means to self- By means of the higher centre, wo oan over- realisation. The Yoga School of Patanjali stresses come the lower one. the physical discipline by which the higher oentre can be subdued. The Malini sohool represents itself as a part of nl the Tantras and Saivagamas and therefore holds both the methods respectfully and equally. According to it, full balance between the body and the mind is needful. Either of them cannot suffice for self-lmowledge. Malini Vijaya has divided the two methods, mentioned above, into three classes, viz., anavopaya, Saxtopaya and Sambhevopaya. The first and the third olass correspond to the Yoga and the Siena of the Patan- jela and the Vedantio School respectively. As regards - the nature of Saktopaya, it is the. combination of both, Yoga and JHaha. It 1s needless to say that the three Xpnx Upayas resemble the well-known Sadhanas of the Kerma- Yora, the bhakti-yoga and the Jnane-Yosa. In the whole work, the forte of the author is how one can rise from the gross to the subtle. The detailed explanation of the Sadadhvan (sixfold path), various dharanas (concentrations) and the pancadasi, ete., confirm the fact (ma, III, XII-XIII and II). Besides, the author has thrown light on the very interesting topics of the Tantrika Sadhana. The work, as we learn from the words of Una (ua. I, 8), 18 @ part of Siddhayocisvari tantra (not available). From the text, it is also clear that the ! work consists of two parts, called Purva Malini and Uttara Malini. Unfortunately, the first part of the work 1s not available. The second part, Uttara Malini or Malini Vijayottera tantra, is mainly a blend of Jnana (philosophy) and Kriya (practice), which are the fundamental themes of the 3iddha and Namaka tantra, regarded as two sections of the Siddha Yogisvart. By the close study of the Seiva literature of Kustmir, we conolude that the Malini School has not en- joyed a long life due to its rigorous methods of Sadhana. on account of the loss of its preliminary section, Purva Watini, we are not in a position to ley any remark on its significant points, It is Abhinava Gupta, a scholar and spiritualist of the 10th Century A.D. that regards Malini us a prinoipal treatise on the Trika, formulated by tern Gupta in his inspirational work, the Siva Sutras, ana pays high esteem to it. It 4s also a fact that the tradition of the Malini system could not continue after Abhinava ' Gupta. No later writer of the Kashmir Saivism has supplemented the School of Malini. eeeeeeeeeoseeoeeeoe eee eeseoeneeeseoeeeneoeoeneeed in partioular.

They can not lead him towards the true path whioh oan bu shown by a Guru, A Sadhaka is advised to seek a preceptor of good type. The theory of seven prawat{s, mentioned in Ely 4s reference to the various grades or stages of Sadhakas. The mention of the paioadasa, trayodasa and ekadesa vidhis throws light on the wonderful method of the Sadhana and distinguishes the school from the Trika type of Saiviem, It also refers to the method cf sublimation, well-known in the Tantrika literature of Indie. The, dootrino of the three upayas, referred to in the 2nd. adhi. of Ma, corresponds to the theory of the bhaves (netur expounded by Sarvanenda,in his work, 8.U.T. The explanation of the five states, viz., jagrat, svapna, sugupta, turya and turyatita, points out the five fl Hl z Saktis of Siva, due to which he 1s regarded as a doer of the five actions (pancavidhakrtyakari). Dootrine of sixfold path or gadadhvan ig another chief content of the work. The path is arranged in two groups, vacakadhvan and vachyadhven. The constituent parte of the first division in an ascending order are mentra, pada and varna. Tho latter consists of bhuvana, tattva and kala. Arrangenent of the Sedadhvan in the four andas, a ae — = i=, called parthiva, prakrta, maylya and sakta, is another peouljarity of the school. ee -1 The desoription of iccha, jiena and kriya saktis 4s specially related to the ideal monism and throws light on psychology. ’ Conception of Matrka and Malini, referred to in Mi, III indioutes the origin of letters References to jxaha and riya dikes in Ma. IV point out that the school has synthesized two sadhanes of the Vedanta und the Patanjala School respectively. The synthesis of the two methods also implies that the Lava system of Kushmir holds mental as well as physical @is~ oipline as a means to spiritual knowledge in an equal position. In commotion with purification (bhuta-sudahi), the mention of the threefold anganyase, that is, apara, peraper and para vidhi, is a remarkable character of the work, The three kinds of the anganyasa are specially meant for three classes of Sadhakas, viz., dvaitavadin, dvaitadveita vadin and aévaitavadin (Ma. VI and notes on it.) ‘ Performance of various mutras, referred to in Ma.

VIII are indiostigus of the practical Youn or xriyaddieas The term, adhara Sakti, referrea to in ifa.VIIz, 55, assures us that the doctrine of Sat Cakra was also’ known to the system.

Padaccheda diksa of Ma. 9th. is no less important in ite contents. It is, in fact, a domonstration of fetters (pasa), which stand in the way of, spiritual rise of Sadhakas. ; Sadhake-diksa and acarye-diksa are significant topios of the work. Nobody ia admitted into the olass of a Sadhaka unless he proves himself a man of character before the Guru. As reeards the nature of the écarya- dikga, 1t transforms a gadhaka to the status of a Guru, The abhigeka (sprinkling of wetor on head) rite 1s associated with the dikes, mouttoned above. No Sidneka or Ecarya has any right to act as e sadhaka or as an acarya unless powers ere delegated to him through the abhigeka ceremony. Conoentrations (dharanas) on the grossa elements, panocatanmatres, mena, buddhi, ahankara and ten senses (indriyas) expose the peculiarity of the Sadhana the school lays down, It also discloses the fact that macrocosm and microcosm are equally important to a spiritual seeker (Ma. XII-xvI). Two kinds of Sadhana, laksyabheda and ofttabneaa, referred to in Ma.XII, are remarkable. The work does not fail to mention the method of pranayama (breath-oontrol) with its other variations as'a ) f 14. ‘i J e e mesns to self-control.

(v) The tantras ere an epitome of the different forms of Sadhana because they are influenced by the varied religious cults and the divergent branches of Indian philosophy. Like the Vedas, they also claim great antiquity. The students of Tantras can not miss the monotheistic philosophy of the Upanisads and the absolute 1s. monism of Sankara in then. Some of thom are characterised by polytheism and pantheiem of the Vedic period. _ In spite of all these various contents of then, they strongly stress liberation as the summum bonum of human life. ‘They have adopted different methods to mect this ond. The chief contents of them are description of | letters, explanation of the euscty ate primeiples and their Been cerss sidéhis. In view of these characters, we do sey that the nature of the Ma. aysten 4s ‘Tantrixa. In spite of the features that reduce 4t to th | Tantrika level, the system 1s, to some extent, a bit different from it. The essential. character that differen- it from Tantras is its peculiar conception of the Both, the Ma. system of Kashmir datyism and’ the ‘ ‘ Tantrika Sohool, regard Siva as absolute and transcendent. The two terms, ‘absolute’ and 'transcendent’ mean , ‘beyond relation’. But the term, ‘beyond’, according to ie beiva"School or the Ma., means = ‘exooed ing’ oF ‘wider then the relation’, In the Tantrika School of Saiviom, E the same term, 'beyond', is explained in the sense - ; ‘having no relation at all’. The Ma» School does not Geny or exolude relation. In other words, 4t mentions that the absolute is related to the world but has a wider jsphere than that of the relation. According to this view, the absolute has relative universe in it. It is not | denied. It oxists in the absolute Reality but the latter is beyond it, The second view is accepted by the Tantrika Ronism. It says that the absolute has no relation. The pYedanta also follows this view. The relative world is a lay of Maya or a mere 1114. To this view the world is \ \ | \ | | | { Si petacesnn i =i6s Yor the further clarification of the term, ‘absolute’, diagrams (based on M.M.) are quoted in the following: - @eeeeeseeeveosee ese? weenie bree, eo ee I= ‘At, the absolute, has excluded the 'B', & symbol of the relative world and, at the same time, 19 fuller than it. From the Chart, it is clear that the former (A) contains the latter (B) in it. The relative world is not excluded from it (the absolute). The Malini School of Kashmir Saiviem holds this view. The system has pointed out this idea by two terms, ‘Sakala' and 'Nigkala' (Me. I, 18), meaning ‘visvamaya' (immanent) and 'vidvo~ ttirna’ (transcendent), Both, immanoney and transoendenoy of the Reality, are agreeable to the Ma- School. II - ‘A’, the absolute, is quite separate from the 'B', the relative world, The Tantrism and the Vedante explain the absolute in this sense. The supreme is irrelative and remains aloof from the rolativity. As regards the nature of the supreme, the view of the Trika is similar to that of the Malini. It also regards the Reality as visvemaya and visvottirna. ‘the busta of this dual character of the supreme is ite twofold aspect.

The first and the foremost work, belonging to SAgema olass, is Siva Sutras, which, as the Kashmirian ‘tredition mentions, are revealed through Vasu Gupte. The “work, as it sooma from K.S. lays down the elementary prin~ eiples of the Trike system for the first time. The work, represents itself as a type of idealist‘o monism. The ! ultimate Prinoiple, admitted by the School, is Siva, the Absolute... The system regards it, as immanent and tran: eendent. The character of the work is theorétical. ig \ S2’rhe spanda tranch of Saivism lays down the main 1 a Siva Sutra, without, or hardly, ontering into philosophical, reusonings iu their support. The principal work belonging to this class is Spanda Karika by Kalleta. The theme of the work is based on the Siva Sutras. It seens as a commeftary on them. The author of it, no doubt, admits Siva as the supreme, but significance attached to the Spanda (vibration) Sakt4 cannot be denied. The theoretical feature of the work f a can not enable us to distinguish it from the Siva Sutras. The Pratyabhijna (recognition) School may be regarded as the Manana or vicara Sastra (philosophy) of the Trika. The School 1s founded by Siddha Somananda, most probably q pupil of Vasu Gupta, The first work which has laid the foundation of the Sohool 4s Siva am ti by Somananda who deals rationally @ with the doctrines, tries to support them by reasonings and @ refutes the views of the opponents. The sqoond chief work of the School is Isvera pratyabhijiia by Utpala deva. The treatise on the School deels with the fundamental principles of the Trike ex- haustively and, to some extent, has superseded the Siva 4reti of Somananda. From the brief eocount of the principal works on the Trika philosophy, it is clewr that they strengthen the philosophical aspect of it, As regards the practical side @ | of it, they say very little. The main character that distinguishes the Malini School from the works, cited above, @ 4s its practical Yoga. It equally stresses jiana and Kriya or theory and practice. The other distinctive marks of the Ma.,system =o ee el. e 46 from tho other available works, such da, that sepa svccchandatantra, Vijéna Phaixeva, Watonsa, Megendva and Netra tantra of unknown authorship, are its doctrines of purfadaba and trayoduge vidhi, ete.

According to it, the body of a Sadhaka, from feet to forehead, is supposed to ve 84 fingers. In this measurement, all the tattvas are to be realised. The parapara vidhi is meant for the dual plus non-dual oless of Sadhakas. ‘The pody, from feet Poluretmarenahre (in icbdsidered to ive 96 tinesre- All the The para method idhakas of the principles ere realised in this space. of the ancanyasa 1s specified for the advaite olass. ‘The body of & Sadhaka, from foot to brahma- randhra, is supposed to be 96 fingers. uwelve fingers are to bo added to thie measurement.

As a matter of fact, the one fundamental e unity, by. means of its freedom or Svantantrya dakti, mani- @ rests itself in the three forms in the state of creation. @ The Supreme Reality, in its self-division, does not lose its essential nature end remains the absolute one. ¥rom the psychologicel point of view, the three prinoiples of the triune thought, Siva, Sakti and nara; correspond to consciousness, sub-conscious and unconso fous ness respectively and refer to the three phases of Indian philosophy, viz, unity (abheda) unity in diversity (bieda: bheda) and diversity (bheda). lies From the Sakta point of view, the trichotomy of the system is understood as combination of three Saktis, para, parépara.and epera or fooha, Jnana and kriye, which also indicate abheda bhedabheda and bheia. From another (tantrika) point of view, the Sohool represents three short vowels, a, 1 end u and is technically called Saderdhakramasustre (%.3.IX) or 7 Sadardhakrana vijiaha (T.A.I).

When he regains his essential character through his own Sekti, called vikagini ih this case, he becomes Siva. Thus, Sakt4 in this popeey is most important tattva,. Both, pasu-bhava and Sivaeonaeet are dependent upon it, The Sohool is styled as an idealistic monist. ‘The one appears in three forms created by its own freedom. In spite of the triple form, the one is still one. 5. The Term, 'Spanda'(Lit., known as movement), represents itself as an aspect of the “rik and exposes 1 ‘ the seorets which are latent in the Sakti of Siva. the word "Spanda" occurs once in Ma. 18th, 6 in the sense of s vibration situated in tho human heart. A Sadhaka ig Atreoted to meditate on this movement, which according to Ma. seems to mean The Supremo Prinoiple. Abhinava Gupta has slso explained the term (panda) in the sense of Persma Siva or Supreme conse ious— nese, which manifesta Itself in the three forms, called Siva, Sakt4 ond Nara, corresponding to the avyakta (non= dual) vyaktavyekte (dual plus non-dual) and vyakta or dual (of. Ekasya Spandanasyaisa tridha bheda vyavasthitin. Sth.). TAs Similarly the Spandana is also uscd in the senge of Anuttare “meaning the Supreme Self or Siva", | Bl. The author of S.7.S. in the lst. Ke-, hes used the Spanda in the sense of flutter or movement. According ‘ ! " to this text, Sive Tattva is the first flutter of Parcma 4 Siva. It enables us to say that the Spanda is freedom (svatantrye dakt1), recerded es an espect of Parana Siya. ghe advocates of this free will have raised it to a high stetus and explained the seme as a separate, Spanda Sakti vy writing treatises on it. As a matter of fact, its value is es an aspect in the Trika and not @ separate school. Like the Spanda the Pratyabhijiia (recognition) is not @ separate school and is connected with the aspect "consclousness' of Perema Siva. The supreme self and the individual self are identical in the state or liberation. This identity 1s forgotten in the creative State due to its own freedom. The recognition of the lost identity is oall- od Pratyabhijna- The found ership of the Spanda is attributed to Kellata, a pupil of Vasu Gupta. The principal work oon- taining the tenets of the aspect 1s 'Spanda Karikes' by Fallate. It 1s « controversial point that Spanda Karikas are not an independent work. They reprosent the theme of the dive Sutras which are said to have been revealed to Vesu Gupte by Siva. As tradition mentions, they were inseribed on a rock on the Kehadeva hill, four miles far from the Nishada garden in Srinagar in Kashmir. He taught them to his pupil, Kallata, who composed’ the Spanda Karika on them for the instruction of his own pupils. The followers of the Spanda system hold that Siva as a supreme Reality is neither en officient nor a material cause. According to them, God is independent and he w 8 eoeooeee oreates the world merely by the force of his will. Thig Yorce or Sakti, regarded as responsible for the projection,e nuintenance and the destruotion of the universe, is called Spanda. This Sakti 4s a main factor that brings animal state as well as liberated state to Siva., A sadhaka realising this spanda tattva can know his real naturo (3.N.N4. Com. 1st Ka Ibid. IIT N4.Ka 16). The authorship of the Pratyebhijiia (recognition) 1s aseribed to Somanande, whose main work is "Siva Dreti'. The other prinotpal treatise on it 4s Isvera Pratyabhijia” by Utpsladeva, the commentator of which is Abhinava Gupta. The votaries of the aspeot hold that Siva is the fundamental ® Feslity, which appdars as a phenomenal universe. ‘They lay emphasis on the ‘Abhasa (Evolution) Vada, according to which, ! the world of multiplicity 1s evolved by Siva, which was tdoal@ -ly existent in the Reality. The main topio of the Fratye Bhijia aspect 1s i sn d¢ontity of the individual self and the material world with Siva. Like the Trika thought, which mentions the vnity of tke throe Tattves, the aspect also admits the unity of the limited self, the Set end the universal self, The doctrine of the creation of the World and the relation betweon the individual soul and the Supreme soul are the same in this aspect as they are held by the Trika School. All diversity proceeds from unity and to reach the latter ° one should begin from diversity. To approach ‘this unity i4e the primary the system deals with. But its approach - is different. The limited self and the supreme soul are indentical. The nature of the former is not separate from thet of the latter. The former has totally forgotten his essential nature, owing to the threo taints, d.e., anava, Karma and Waya Mala. The system mentions that the lost eoccccccccceseeeeee identity 1s recugnisec. The Anu, when it recosnises its ‘ i fl iduutity with Siva, ie no more enimel. It becomes Siva. The School, like the Vedanta, does not mention that the phenomenal universe is an illusion. According to it, the matertal world is a reality. The mundane world is, tn reaitty,/payohieul Life of the ali=soul (Siva), projeatea outwardly. The eppeurence (Srsti) and dissolution (Pralaya) ; are 3) a to be unmesa (opening) and 'Nimesa' (closing of | { Siva). Me ewakens, the world, potential y latent within Fin, comes into befag, when He ty in the waking State, the world of phenonene exists. When he gocs to sleep the world je yith¢rewn into im end disappears. He is asleep and the world rests with Him as « potential magnitude till the new day of waking comes. Thus the world, 4s not dirferent trom the objectified or materielised conséiousneas of Siva. 4 Siva, according to the philosophy, is simultaneously both | cause and effect. He 1s quiescent and is always in perfect repose. It is the doctrine of the Svantantrya or sovereign- ty of God's will that imparts an impetus to the wordly process. Thus the Sakti of Siva is also primun datum in this school. The principle of the Prayathijna school, in short, 4s that the individual self in men fs Siva. This identity of the limited solf with the universal self is forgotten owing to the nescience and delusion. When this imown identity 4s brought or recognised, it is Pratyabhijna (1.P.IA.). For example a King knows a man. Owing to some teasons, he forgets him. The minister of the kinz, presenting the man before him, says ~ 'This is the man whom you already know'. The knowledge of the man to the king fe recognition. When the three taints of the limited.selr \ @isappear, it becomes aware of its Siva stato like tho prince who vas taken away by a comherd sa3 was brought up @n his association. He forgot hia real nature but when he reoornised his princely state, he was no more a cowherd. According to the Vedanta philosophy, the whole universe is Brahman. The appearance of the phenomenal universe 1a aya, or an illusion. The ind ividualselr (Jivatman) does not realise itself that it is Brahman. It 4s deluded by Maya. Sometimes a man mistakes a rope for a anake owing to darkness. Similarly the world is Brehmen but due to Maya 1t is not perceived correctly in its true perspective. The repe canrot be a snake. It » eoeeeeoeoeeneoeoeoeoeeoe darkness that presents the reality in other form. When this mislesding element 148 removed, the reulity appears as it is. The Vedanta reachos the Reality by negation. It denies the world, which, eccording to it, is a false show. 1 Frov, the Saive point of view, the world is roality. It cannot be denied. The universe is Siva. ‘The limitedselr to also Siva. It has forqctten its true nature that Ho 1s l 5 Siva. To misunderstand a rope as a snake is not duo to the darkness According to the Saiva Philosophy, it is forget— fulness that works out and presents the rope in the form of a snake. When the reality 1s recognised, there is snake. It is the rope, which, for the time being, was forgotten and’ was misunderstood as a snake, : To sum up the fundamentals and doematios of the three, Trika, Spanda and Pratyabbijia, it would not be out of place to mention here that the Trika Philosophy is a blend of the three ways of God-realisation. ‘The Spanda fl mentions the energy of the Lord Siva as all in all. For the realisation of this energy, an aspirant is ordered to eoveeoeoe continue his meditation on the object till the vision of thet supreme Bhairava comes. It is a ‘Dhyana Yoru’.

The spiritusl efforts of the Vedic seers for God-realisation were absolutely based on them. ‘They, therefore, from the earliest times, we find, have a close correspondence between the two aspects of Brahman, i.e. Sabda brabman and Para brahman. Sabda brahman, represented by @ Vedio Mantra, was considered to be realisation of Para brahman. This method of Yoga, later on, came to be known as "Vagyoga" (Lit. unification of speech, techn, realisation of God through speech or Savaa). We find it stated in the traditional literature of Vaiyakeranas (Gremmarians) of whom Bhartr Hari was best representative. He has clarified the position of Sabda and restored it to the divine status (cf. Anadinidhanam brahma gabda tattvam pracakgate. Vivar— titi Fthabhavens prakriya Jago yatah, Va. P.). Parallel 7 to the Vedic line, we come to know the same truth in the Tentrika line of oulture. pene we find a very, close analysis of the stxueture of Sabda and the science of the 38.

They have proved the fact by their personel ex fence. Meditation or concentration on a certain phono yields the fruit, similar to that of the Mantra-Yoga. he recitation of an individual letter (Varna) is no less important than that of the Mantras. The ultimate goal, scoording to both, Varna-yoga and Mantra-yoga, 1s equal. The Tentrixa approach to the unity through the-Varnas is eesseeveeeeeseoCoeeoeeeneeeseeeseeeeonoeseses 37. shorter than that of the Vedio School through the Mantras but both are logically and psychologically based on sound principles. The former, in comparison with thé latter ja simple and does not require the rich materials the latter needs. Moreover, the Tantrika way of self-reali- sation through this method has no restriction, Any man of any class is admitted to the Sadhana of this culture. In this respect, the reis of the Tantrika cult are more broad-minded and generous than those belonging to the Vedic School. The Vedio Sadhana, in short, 4s meant for men of a special class. Wantras, as we learn from the Vedus are arranged in groups. The seers have assigned them to particular deities. ‘Likewise, the scholars of the Tantrika system have arranged the letters of tho alphabet into two groups, vowels and consonants, technically culled "Vija” and Yoni" which represent one deity, Siva, in his two aspeots, viz., Siva und Sakt4., This monistic trend,” as opposed to that of polytheism, found in the esrly history of the Vedas, is a peoulierity of the Yantrika School. 1 Ascreption of the two-fold lettér to Siva and ‘ \ ra Sekti has affected the Saiva and the Sakta cult, which, in this respect, are mutually related to each other. The $iva principle 4s ofarupa and static. ‘The Sakti is regarded as dynamio and 1s said to be part and parcel of Siva. The equalised state of the statie and the dynasie aspect makes Parama Siva, understood as tattvatita or beyond name and’ form. From the point of view of the Varne~ Yora, both, vowels and consonants, are representations of the Siva and dakt4 prinoiples.

As regards the development of Kashmir Saivgon ft seems u fact that 1t has added one more principle, called "jiva" or "anu" to the twin (Siva and sati), e already developed in the Tentrike oulture of India and nemed it as “Trike” . The third principle, ‘anu’, is @ Rndgretood deve) joint product! of Siva ‘and Gaktdi, regardga as fether and mother, in the form of a son. ‘The three principles of the system, as a matter of fact, represent basic unity end refer to the doctrine of oneness (er.

The second work, 1 as its name signifies, deals with the Saiva philosophy. ‘Throughout the work, the author stresses the idealistio monism of the school. The author favours the theory of evoluticn (abhaseveda) and explains how multiplicity begins trom unity (ef. Yosiva nirupsdanamartha jatem prokadayet S.dr.J). Tae work, directly or indircotly, is related to the Trike School and lays down the foundation of the Pratya- pnijna. he contributions of Utpuluceva, the disciple of Somanande, to the triple thought are very great. He adopted the same three principles end explained them on the besis of pratyabhijna (recognition). Hoe lays much emphasis on the forgetfulness cf Siva that puts him under limitations. The recognition of this state is, according to him, liberation which can be achieved by means of jana (philosophy). Another chief contributions to the system are the works of Abhinava Gupta. ‘Tantraloka in.32 chapters, oalled Ghnika, entirely deals with Seivism of Kashmir, The work itself is a commentary on Malini. The author of T.A., thovgh eocepts the views of his predecessors but his pre~ he calls "Sripitrva ¢ ference Je to that of Ma. wh He seems to explain the fundamentals of the Matrka School but in support of his views, ho often quotes Malini.

As regards the literature of the Ma. system, we have got only three works, Malinivijeyottara tantra, qantFaloka and Malinivijaya vartika by Abhinava Gupta.

It 18 the spontaneous and innate tendency of human mind that it attempts to find out the solution of the mystery of the universe after the task of mecting the immediate necessities of life. We must regard this inward meroh of human mind as the origin of philosophy. | Tho human wderstanding, in ite solitude, wants to find an oxplanation of the phenomenal multiplicity and variety. It desires to kmow whether this visible plurality can be traced to the original unity and whether this seeming varioty 4s unreal. It tries to ponder over the cause of the present disorder and digsconnectedness behind which the perfect. harmony exists. ‘This search of human reason for some coumon ground or fundamental unity, where all diversities return and where all whys are stopped, is a true afin of philosophy. ie The nature of this common ground, as Sastras describe, is 42. eternal end whence fall is never possible (Cr. Yadvatve na nivartante tedahara paramen mema. Bha, G4.) When a man reaches the Absolute Unity, he feels that all his faculties have attained their richest fruition. In this perfect stete, nothing revains unknown to him. Hy the knowledge of the Infinitude everything becomes ‘mown to him (of. Yasmin vijnate Servemidam vijiatem buavati, Cha. U. Chap. VI), It 4s a state of the perfect Homogentety where no 2 has explained this it: hetrogeniety remains. The Bhagvat state as follows:~ Yam Labdhva oaperam Tabhem manyate nadhiken taten". VI, 22 (Attaining which nothing in this universe seems to be better). It is the function of philesophy that 1% dio~ closes the inner vision of a man and brings the direct experience of the Absolute which pervades his whole. system with the unspeakable joy. It is the intuitive experience of the Absolute that we are enabled to have a correct estimate of philosophy. All human reasonings should continue until the final goal, the perfect synthesis is reached. The roal value of philosophy lies in the attain- ment of the absolutely homogenious Reality. There 1s a considerable difference between the conception of philosophy as it 4s understood by the Indian systems of philosophy on the one hand ani as it is taken to be by the Western Philosophers on the other. Although we note important points of similarity between the philosophi- cal discussions of the Western thinkers end the Indian systems of philosophy st111 we cannot ignore the fundamental distinction between them. Philosophy, in the Wost, in tho words of Dr. Nalini Kanta Brahma in his work P.H.S., is tho "Thinking consideration of things." It is the retionel @Ceceoeeeeoeeoeoeoseeoeeoeeeeeseeeoeeoeneseeeeese explenation of the universe as a whole, Thus, in the West, Philosophy 1s somathing purely intellectusl. It 1s like the other subjects of study and bears no special importance. the transcentent merit and the indepentent oherecter of philosophy which the six schools of the Indian philosophicel | systems emphasise are not recognised in the West. In the Bast, Philosophy 1s taken as stmmum bonum of lire. It is understood as be-all and end-all of life in India. It ido herdly enything more than an intellectual pastime in the West. In this connection the words of dir Radha Krishnan are remerke>le - "In many other countries of the world, reflection on the nature of oxistence is a luxury of lite. The serious moments are given to ection, while the pursuit of philosophy comes up eas parenthesis, In the West, even in the hey-day of its youth as in the times of Plato and Aristotle, it leaned for support on some other study as i Politics or Ethica - - In India, philosophy stood on its own legs, and all other studies looked to it for inspiration and support." I.P, Vol.I. The Indian mind has regarded philosophy as one of the chiefest means that solve the richest problem of sal~ vation considered as the ultimate good of hwaen lire. It relieves man of the miseries of Lito and bestows on him the, indesoribabla bliss. A man, seeking emeneipation from the fearful bondase, occupies himself with the study of philoso~ phy. The intellectual discussions available in the Indian Philosophy are not merely intended to supply the needs of intellect. They are meant to serve the ultimate and runda~ mental need of ‘humen life, viz., The need of liberation. In India, philosophy originates when a man feels a ne qusnodpation, when he desires something more than the objects of the ordinary interest. ‘Thus the Hindu philosophy dees not find its origin in the love of wisdom or in the desire 44. to know something (Jijnana). It comes into being whon a man desires for protuotion from the wordly bonds. In the © West, philosophy means to achieve wisdom for its own sake e and not for uny praotioal purpose, The theoritical caer oe ter of philosophy has got much emphasis and ito practical e aspect has been throwa behind there. The case, in India, e! ig different. The theory has teen subordinated te the e i praoties, It is the practical aspeot of philosophy thet a matters much in India. Practice has a full dominetion o -@ theory. Thus theory and practice, or philosophy end re- ligion have kept pace with each other. In most cases ro~ ligion has preceded philosophy. In India, es a matter of fact, philosophy 4s founded on religion, faith and intuitiv experience. Indian thinkers neither advocate ectless wis dom nor support wisdomless acts. They are equally attache: to action and contemplation. They are setive first and th contemplative. Individual reds first of all, have got vision of the Absolute by their intuitive experience, Later on, the same oxperience is philosophically discussed and ite value 13 determined for the ordinary people. In India, the philosophies which are not based on the intulbiv experience or faith, have got no long lite. We should ali beer the fact in mind that in some cases, religious exper~ e e e e ° e ° e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e dence comes after ratiooination (Vicara) which is supposed to be the function of philosophy. In the Vedanta, for example, ve find that intuition (darsana) is supposed to come after meditation (Nididhyasena) which esein follows ratiooination (Manena). It does not matter much whether religious experience or intuition comes first and ratio~ oination takes place efter it, or meditation falls first © and intuition is ita fruition. The fact, which wo have to emphasise in this connection, 1s the interrelation of: religion and philosophy. In India, theory and practice 45. are interwoven in every schoc} of philosophy. hoy are never divorced from each other in the six systems of the Indien Philosophy. As a matter of fact, reason and intuition are not two separate things. They are regarded ‘as two aspects of one attempt or approach. ‘he ultimate goal of these two oriteria 1s one, viz., Salvation. From this point of view, nkhya and the the aim of the Nyaya and VaiSegika, of the 3: Yous, of the Vedanta and Mimaasa, of the Buddhist end the Jain, 15 the same, 1.e., the attainment of tho Highest and and complete emancipation from all miseries. It is very difficult to state that the Vedenta and tho Sankhya are philogophies and not religions. In reality, theory and practice are mixed in the six system of philosophy. , Un- doubtedly, in India, philogophy and religion are but theori- , tioal and practical aspects of one attempt ut realising the Wtinel end of life. hus reuson and faith or philosophy pana religion should be regarded as two criteria or the Highest truth. 2. According to Abhinava Gupta, philoso fundamental jana 1s thot by which the knowledye of the Wty or absolute whole (Purna Prathatmaka) 1s obtainod. ruse or spirit). Both intellectual and spiritual jidne re required for the supreme goal in the saiva philosophy. Either of them will not suffice. Similarly the Ajmana (Ignorance) hes also two Mis paurusa aji@na and baudiha ajhdne. By the pauru t ith Anu or individual self. Yor its destruction, Saiva losophy stresses Diksa. Suppose this ajnana ds 46. destroyed by Dikga end the anu ie purified but Bunddua’ ajiaie remains in its active state, shall we get liberation? This question is answered by T.A. in the lst.A. fhe dea- truction of Paurnga Ajnane certainly brings freedom (mokge) arter the fall of this physical body. In life-time we can not experience the state of liberation, because the banddhe affdna exiets and stands in the way of the true self~ realisation. Intelleotually we do not know whether wa are spirituelised or not. ‘Thus for the atteinment of Jivan Mukti, the removel of the bauddha ajnana is indispensable. he the disappearance of bauddha ajnana is esaen= tial for the realisation of Sivan Mukti, similarly the doli~ verance from paurusa Ajnana is highly essential for the attainment of’ supremo liberetion according to Saiva school ally end of thought. ~-Suppose, we are elevated inteilectu spiritualised by the study of holy soriptures but our paurusa mala or anava taint remains in its active state, the shell we have supreme state as it is xoceptable to Yaiva School? According to the school of ths Vedanta, 1iveration is based on bauddha Jana on which it lays uuoh emphasis. ¥rom the Tantrika point of view, it is a m freedom or vijmana kaivalya and not supreme state whion can be obtained after the destruction of pauruga ajaiana. From whatever is stated above, it has to be noted that pauruse jane end bauddha Jnana ere interrelated. 4 mere removal of. paurusa ajmana by pauruga Jnana will not pring jiven mukti. Similarly the destruction of tauddha dha jiiana cannot achieve supreme state. ajnana by 3. The system equally stresses jriina (philosophy) and kriya (prnotice) as means to self-realisetion. About the meanings of the term 'jidna', we ere sure that it moan ratiocination (vioare) or moditation (monnra)."

As a matter of fact, it iz an intermediate state of duality end non-duslity (dvaita-dvaite), The Prematr is said to be between the two tattvas, i.o., x 1 as pure and impure (Mayordhvam Suddha vidyadhah). The Mantra Pramatr is a bit better than the Vijnanakela, The tendenoy of this Pranatr is more inward than thet available in the preceding Proamat: The anave mala, which abounds in the Vijwanakala, bocins to proceed towards destruction. The idea of perfect unity appears in its wavering state, that is, sometimes, it appears whilo at others it disappeers. The full balanced trence (Wirvi- Kpaka Samadhi) of Yoga, which is experienced in tho no: higher Pramata is yet very far. In the Mantresvara state, the defilement “anava ia in the position of being destroyed (dhvansamana). The Sadhaka of this state begins to realise the subjective 1 unity which pervades the whole universe including him. But perfect oneness has not yet got hold of his inner being. His mind is more bent on the subjeot than that in the Mantra state. In the Mantramehesvera state, the Anava Mala 1a destroyed (Dhvasta). It is a perfect state of the mental i balance from which all thoughts of differentiation in to disappear. The Sadhaka at this stage does not rind cuy divergence between hia self and the self of the universe. It is a high Yogic trance from which a fall 1s xarely expected.

The fourth Sakta enda is pervaded by Utpuyint (Lit. purifying) Kala. The Yogis, in it, know three tattvas, Su Vidya (Isavera Tattve and Sadasiva) three letters (Ka, Kha, Ga) one Mantra and one Pada. 56.

The Sakti which conveys the idea above 45. nentioned, 1s called the cognitive power (Jnana Sakti). ‘This thing was thus and now it should be thus’ the Sakt4 by whioh the above cited idea is expressed, is termed as conative power (Kriya Sakti). At first, this Sakti was of two- kinds, but again it has many varieties when gets connected with innumerable objects. (arthopadhivasat) like the Oitemani jewel. This Sekti, first of all, existing in the form of Matrka | (the present Alphabet system of the Sanskrit literature) fe divided. 10.

Then he should do its Homa (sacrifice) with the best sacri- ficial Materials and its Tarpana (satisfaction) ten times 19. Those who know the best say that meat, and the leaves of the Palasa tree are the best qualities to be sacrificed as an cblation. The double quantity of these materials is termed as Middle quality. The threefold quantity of the seme materials would be termed as "the worst quality’. 20. The Ghee, Guggulu and fats of the human body are said to be like meat.
