In order to express out clearly the nature of the one which reamains concealed as the exact core of
the word, scriptures such as the Mantras and the Tantras flowed out from the Sadyojata face. The
scriptures known as Garuda, Vama, Bhuta tantra and Bhairva flowed out from the Isana face,
Tatpurusha face, Vama face and Aghora face respectively in the said order.

From the upper face of the Isana face, the Scriptures such as the Kamika and others were revealed
in two different streams of 10 and 18 Scriptures belonging to siva bheda and rudra bheda
respectively. As directed and ordered by the Supreme Lord, these 28 Scriptures were revealed
to 66 high-souled recepients in the due order. The same 28 Scriptures were revealed in
accordance with the number of faces in the subsequent cycles of yugas through Sadyojata and
other faces. They were revealed so as to be in four different sections.
