The Twelve Higher Spandas of Shaivism #143
In early times in India, when it as called Bharat — the Eternal Land — Lord Kapila did his inner homework through intense scrutiny of all that lies both inside and outside the individual’s marvelous province. He came up with the Twenty-Four Cosmic Principles that not only effectively distilled and mapped out these two terrains of a human being’s relative consciousness, but were also borrowed by so many other systems of Cosmology and Philosophy — both inside and outside of Mother India. Shaivism was one of these, with its keen and authentic worship of Lord Siva. To the Cosmic Principles of the Sankhya system of Lord Kapila, the Shaivites added twelve deeper or higher levels of vibration, completing a grand 36 Cosmic Principle tier that opened the aspiring sadhika’s exploration of the “kingdoms of heaven within” to subtleties unknown to most seekers of Enlightenment
Srsti Rahasya — Tantra’s Secret of Creation #98
All of the religious traditions of the world possess some system or ideology that proposes what the origins of life are and where they come from. Of them all, India stands out and is head and shoulders beyond the others, mainly because its cosmology is both sensible to the intellect and philosophically sound. In India’s well-thought, deeply meditated systems of cosmology there is no conjecture based in hope or sentimentality, no faint-hearted appeal leveled towards attracting the soul towards the phenomenal and the occult. There is no force utilized based in fear of damnation or alienation. There is no immortality, either on earth or in heaven. There is just the Eternal beyond them both. Mother India has many darshanas, clear pathways to Freedom, and these the Divine Mother reveals to souls seeking the highest Refuge. With any one of these, like Tantra’s Srsti Rahasya, Origins both physical and spiritual will be plumbed, resulting in the full understanding of the presence and meaning of all worlds and the beings who abide in them.
The Four Celebrated Mystical Utterances #84
Another look at the dharmic teaching of the three worlds — Bhur, Bhuvah, and Svaha (or svar, or suvah) is given here, along with the revelation of the then newly discovered inner world of Mahah, or fourth world, that was perceived by the great rishi, Mahachamasya. Suffice to say, that as cycles of time move forward, and consciousness comes and goes in various forms and bodies, so much of what was once seen and known fades to the background of human awareness. It is then that great souls are born on earth to unveil what has become hidden in consciousness, exposing the existence of internal realms and the presiding deities that abide there.
The Meaning of Maya, & A Subtler Look at Panchakarana #108
In this age, Swami Vivekananda has brought crystalline clarity to the subject of Maya and what it means. It is five fold, i.e., name, form, time, space, and causality. Other forms of five pepper its inner and outer regions as well, and if they are studied and known, this esoteric knowledge will carry the transmigrating soul to new levels of spiritual awakening. The Mother of Maya, Mahamaya, will become pleased with the devotee who strives to pierce through the veils of nescience and arrive blissfully at the farthest shores of nondual Awareness.
