परमार्थसार (महामाहेश्वर अभिनवगुप्त - त्रिक-दर्शन, अद्वैत शैव साधना एवं सान्वय सटीक)

Essence of the Exact Reality or
Paramārthasāra of Abhinavagupta
अभिनवगुप्तकृतः परमार्थसारः
परं परस्थं गहनादनादिम् एकं निविष्टं बहुधा गुहासु ।
सर्वालयं सर्वचराचरस्थं त्वामेव शम्भुं शरणं प्रपद्ये ॥ १ ॥

1. Paraṁ parasthaṁ gahanādanādim
   Ekaṁ niviṣṭaṁ bahudhā guhāsu
   Sarvālayaṁ sarvacarācarasthaṁ
   Tvāmeva Śambhuṁ śaraṇaṁ prapadye.
   O Lord Śambhu, thou art great God in the highest position
   lying beyond the mysterious sphere of Māyā. Thou art one and
   hast yet penetrated in multifarious ways into the hearts of all
   beings having thee as their abode. Thou art present in all static
   and dynamic phenomena. I take only thee as my shelter.
   Śambhu is the transcendental reality, but at the same time
   He manifests Himself as all phenomena which have Him as their
   only basic source. He has thus a pantheistic character and is yet
   the absolute reality that transcends all phenomena. His position
   lies beyond the pluralistic and impure sphere of Māyā. He is the
   monistic absolute of Śaivism and Godhead is His essential nature.
   The fundamental philosophic principle of Śaivism is thus a theis-
   tic absolutism of monistic character.
   गहन (gahana)=mysterious Māyā. गुहा (guhā)=cavern-like cavity
   of the heart of a living being.
   गर्भाधिवासपूर्वकमरणान्तकदुःखचक्रविभ्रान्तः ।
   आधारं भगवन्तं शिष्यः पप्रच्छ परमार्थम् ॥ २ ॥

   Ādhāraṁ bhagavantaṁ
   Śiṣyaḥ papraccha paramārtham.
