Description

The Tantrāloka by Abhinavagupta (c. 975-1050) is undoubtably one of the world's great classics. Treating the whole range of early Śaiva Tantras as part of the Trika Śaivism Abhinavagupta systematically and extensively presents, he draws from all of them to enrich his marvelous and uniquely profound exposition. The result of decades of research, Dyczkowski provides along with his translation of the text and its commentary by Jayaratha, extensive explanatory notes drawn from a wide range of Sanskrit and other sources. These volumes are a must for anyone who is studying Tantra in general and, in particular, the Trika Śaivism of Kashmir. Volume five of the translation of the Tantrāloka contains chapter seven and eight. Chapter seven called the Emergence of the Cycles of Mantras (cakrodaya) outlines in just seventy verses how Mantras and Vidyās of progressively increasing lengths are accommodated into the breathing cycle which increases proportionately. Having thus concluded the Path of Time, Abhinavagupta continues in chapter eight to teach the Path of Space. Drawing mostly from the Svacchandatantra he describes the 224 worlds and their inhabitants distributed in the thirty-six reality levels (tattva) from Earth to Śiva. Thus, he and Jayaratha together present the amazing richness and variety of the Śaiva cosmos and beyond.
