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

A preamble to Śrī Siddhāntaśikhāmaṇi
The knowledge of the definition of Brahman as the
undivided bliss and existence and as consisting of the world,
is here said to be the knowledge of Brahman. (94) When the
knowledge of Brahman, which is without the adjunct of the
world arises, everything appears as made up of spiritual
consciousness and nothing other than that is seen. (95)
Hence, assuming for ever that the knowledge of non-duality
is the cause for liberation, the Śivayogin is never
contaminated by transmigration. (96)
नित्ये निर्मलसत्त्वयोगिषु परे निर्वासाने निष्कले
सर्वातीतपदे चराचरमये सत्तात्मनि ज्योतिषि।
संविद्व्योम्नि शिवे विलीनहृदयस्त्वेद्वैवैमुख्यतः
साक्षात् सर्वगतो विभाति विगलद्विश्वः स्वयं
संयमी ।।९७।।
इति श्रीमत्षट्स्थलद्रह्मिणा
शिवयोगिनाम्ना विरचिते श्रीवीरशैवधर्मनिर्णये
श्रीसिद्धान्तशिखामणौ शरणस्थल-
विषयद्वादशविधलिङ्गप्रसङ्गो नामैकोनविंशः
परिच्छेदः समाप्तः ।।१९।।
With his mind merged in such a way as to be averse to
be different, into Paraśivabrahman, who is eternal, who is
supreme, who is without any impressions, who is without
limbs, who is in the state which is beyond the reach of all,
who is consisting of the movable and the immovable merged
in him, who is of the nature of existence, who is full of lustre
and who is the ether of consciousness, and with the slipping
away of the world, the Śivayogin (saṁyamī) actually appears
supreme among those Yogins who are endowed with pure
“Sattva” (bright) quality. (97)
Here ends the Nineteenth Chapter dealing with the twelve
Liṅgasthalas of the Śaraṇasthala in Śrīsiddhāntaśikhāmaṇi
which is the authority on Vīraśaivism, written by Śrī Śivayogi
Śivācārya who attained Brahman through the path of Six
Sthals (19)
विंशः परिच्छेदः
ऐक्यस्थलान्तर्गतनवविधलिङ्गस्थलप्रसङ्गः
अथागस्त्यप्रश्नः—
स्थलभेदास्त्वया प्रोक्ताः शरणस्थलसंश्रिताः।
ऐक्यस्थलगतान् ब्रूहि स्थलभेदान् गणेन्द्र मे ।।१।।
Then Agastya asks —
The kinds of (Liṅga) Sthalas pertaining to the
Śaraṇasthala are told. O Lord of the Gaṇas, tell me about
the kinds of Liṅgasthala pertaining to the Aikyasthala. (1)
अथास्य प्रश्नस्योत्तरं वक्ति —
स्थलानां नवकं चैक्यस्थलेऽस्मिन् प्रकीर्त्यते ।।२।।
Then Srī Reṇuka replies the question —
The Sthalas belonging to the Aikyasthala are said to be
nine. (2)

शिष्टौदनस्थलं चाथ चराचरलयस्थलम् ।।३।।
भाण्डस्थलं ततः प्रोक्तं भाजनस्थलमुत्तमम्।
