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

A preamble to Śrī Siddhāntaśikhāmaṇi
universe as of the nature of consciousness. His being of the
nature of Śiva is a matter of certainty. To think of him as
endowed with a body is a deep delusion. (53)
स्वस्वरूपं चिदाकारं ज्योतिः साक्षाद्विचिन्तयन् ।
देहवानपि निर्देहो जीवन्मुक्तो हि साधकः ॥५४॥
Cherishing his own form as actually the light of the
nature of consciousness, the aspirant (i.e., Parayogin) who is
as good as one without a body although he has a body, is
indeed liberated even while alive. (54)
देहस्तिष्ठतु वा यातु योगिनः स्वत्मबोधिनः।
जीवन्मुक्तिर्भवेत् सद्यश्चिदानन्दप्रकाशिनी ॥५५॥
Let the body go or stay. Jīvanmukti is bound to come to
the Yogin endowed with self-realisation and reveal the bliss
of consciousness instantaneously.(55)
आत्मज्ञानावसानं हि संसारपरिपीडनम् ।
सूर्योदयेऽपि किं लोकस्तिमिरोणोपरुध्यते ॥५६॥
The torture of mundane existence lasts up to self-
realisation. Is the world obstructed by darkness even after
sun-rise? (56)
देहाभिमाननिर्मुक्तः कलातीतपदाश्रयः।
कथं याति परिच्छेदं शरीरेषु महाबुधः ॥५७॥
How can the great enlightend person who is totally
relieved of the vanity of the body and who occupies a state
which is beyond “Kalās”, succumb to the limitation of the
bodies? (57)
तस्यैव परकायस्य समाचारो य इष्यते।
स धर्मः सर्वलोकानामुपकाराय कल्पते ॥५८॥
Those pious practices which are to the liking of the
Parakāya-yogin are the code of pious practices for the good
of all the people. (58)
अहिंसा सत्यमस्तेयं ब्रह्मचर्यं दया क्षमा।
दानं पूजा जपो ध्यानमिति धर्मस्य संग्रहः ॥५९॥
Non-violence, truth, non-stealing, celebacy, kindness,
forgiveness, charity, worship, repetition of the Mantra and
meditation— these form the succinct code of Dharma. (59)
शिवेन विहितो यस्मादागमैर्धर्मसंग्रहः।
तस्मात्तमाचरन् विद्वान् तत्प्रसादाय कल्पते ॥६०॥
Since the code of pious practices has been prescribed
by Śiva through the Āgamas, the wise one becomes eligible
for his (Śiva's) favour by practising it.(60)
अधर्मं न स्पृशेत् किञ्चिद् विहितं धर्ममाचरेत् ।
तं च कामविनिर्मुक्तं तमपि ज्ञानपूर्वकम् ॥६१॥
One should never do any impious deed; the prescribed
pious deed one should do, and that too without desire and
that again with the aid of knowledge. (61)
आत्मवत् सर्वभूतानि संपश्येद् योगवित्तमः।
जगदेकात्मताभावान्निग्रहादिविरोधतः ॥६२॥
The best among the Yogins (Parakāyayogin) looks upon
every being as his own Self through the notion of the world as
of one form due to the absence of scope for subjugation,
etc.(62)
एक एव शिवः साक्षाज्जगदेतदिति स्फुटम् ।
पश्यतः किं न जायेत ममकारो हि विभ्रमः ॥६३॥
What is not attainable to him who clearly visualises that
this world is actually Śiva only? The notion of “I and mine”
is, indeed, a delusion.(63)
