Pointers to Presence

And what is mind And how is it recognized? If I clearly draw In sumi ink, the sound Of breezes drifting through pine Is all that is seen.

Abhinavagupta: Kashmiri Shivanism


AbhinavaguptaAbhinavagupta, called the "Mahamahesvara", or “great devotee of Siva”, is one of India's great philosophers.

He was born around 950 AD into a brahmin family noted for it’s mature devotion towards God. There are over 35 works to his credit, including Tantraloka, meaning "Light on Tantra". This is the core text of Kashmiri Shaivism, written specifically at the request of his teacher, Sambhunatha.
