सिद्धान्तशिखामणि (शिवयोगी रेणुकाचार्य - वीरशैव षट्स्थल दर्शन एवं शक्तिविशिष्टाद्वैत महाग्रन्थ)

12 A preamble to Śrī Siddhāntaśikhāmaṇi
(9), which had a half moon (crescent moon) as its crest-
ornament, which was pure, which resembled clear crystal,
which had the complexion of clear pearls, which was to be
worshipped by the gods (10), which was endowed with perfect
means of knowledge, which was the object of meditation for
all the Yogins, which had the brilliance of crores of suns,
which had the lustre equal to that of crores of moons (11),
which was the substratum of extraordinary virtues and which
was the abode of infinite greatness. (12-first half)

His Supreme Śakti, who was of the nature of existence,
intelligence and bliss, was of the form of the inherent cause
inseparable from Śiva in the creation of the entire world. On
his desire, she actually became one in keeping with his form.
(12-second half, 13)
जगत्सिसृक्षुः प्रथमं ब्रह्माणं सर्वदेहिनाम् ।
कर्तारं सर्वलोकानां विदधे विश्वनायकः ।।१४।।

With a desire to create the world, the lord of the universe
first created Brahman as the maker of all the worlds and all
beings. (14)
तस्मै प्रथमपुत्राय शङ्करः शक्तिमान् विभुः ।
सर्वज्ञः सकला विद्याः सानुग्रहमुपादिशत् ।।१५।।

Śaṅkara who is the lord associated with his Śakti, who is
all - pervasive and who is omniscient taught with favour all
the sacred lores to him (i.e., Brahman) who was his first
son. (15)
समस्तलोकान्निर्मातुं समुद्यमपरोऽभवत् ।
कृतोद्योगोऽपि निर्माणे जगतां शङ्कराज्ञया ।।

He became prone to create all the worlds. Although he
became ready to create the world according to Śaṅkara's
order, he became covered with Māyā (illusion) without
knowing the equipment in the form of the means to do so.

He once again appealed to the God of gods who was
endowed with three eyes, with a desire to attain the means to
create all the worlds. (17)
