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

108 A preamble to Śrī Siddhāntaśikhāmaṇi
यः सर्वभूताधिपतिं विश्वेशानं विनिन्दति।
न तस्य निष्कृतिः शक्या कर्तुं वर्षशतैरपि।।३८।।
yaḥ sarvabhūtādhipatiṁ viśveśānaṁ vinindati |
na tasya niṣkṛtiḥ śakyā kartuṁ varṣaśatairapi ||38||
There is no atonement possible by even hundreds of
years for him who condemns the Lord of all beings, the Lord
of the universe. (38)
शिवपूजापरो भूत्वा पूर्वकर्म विसर्जयेत्।
अथवा पूर्वकर्म स्यात् सा पूजा निष्फलं भवेत्।।३९।।
śivapūjāparo bhūtvā pūrvakarma visarjayet |
athavā pūrvakarma syāt sā pūjā niṣphalaṁ bhavet ||39||
Being engaged in the worship of Śiva, the devotee
should give up previous practices. Or else if previous
practices continue, that worship (of Śiva) would become
fruitless. (39)
उत्तमां गतिमाश्रित्य नीचां वृत्तिं समाश्रितः।
आरूढपतितो ज्ञेयः सर्वकर्मबहिष्कृतः।।४०।।
uttamāṁ gatimāśritya nīcāṁ vṛttiṁ samāśritaḥ |
ārūḍhapatito jñeyaḥ sarvakarmabahiṣkṛtaḥ ||40||
He who resorts to lower state after having ascended to
higher state, should be known as 'ārūḍhapatita'; he is
prohibited from all religious practices. (40)
पञ्चाक्षरोपदेशी च नरस्तुतिकरो यदि।
सोऽलिङ्गी स दुराचारी कुकविः स तु विश्रुतः।।४१।।
pañcākṣaropadeśī ca narastutikaro yadi |
so'liṅgī sa durācārī kukaviḥ sa tu viśrutaḥ ||41||
If the devotee who has received Pañcākṣaramantra
(from the Guru), resorts to the praise of men, he is as good
as one without Liṅga (aliṅgin); he is given to bad ways; he is

a bad poet; he is as good as one without the knowledge of
Śāstras. (41)
चर्मपात्रे जलं तैलं न ग्राह्यं भक्तितत्परैः।
गृह्यते यदि भक्तेन रौरवं नरकं व्रजेत् ।।४२।।
carmapātre jalaṁ tailaṁ
na gṛhyaṁ bhaktitatparaiḥ |
gṛhyate yadi bhaktena rauravaṁ narakaṁ vrajet ||42||
Water and oil should not be taken in a leather container
by those who are immersed in devotion. If they are taken (in
a leather container) by the devotee, he is bound to go to the
terrible hell. (42)
न तस्य सूतकं किञ्चिन्प्राणलिङ्गाङ्गसङ्गिनः।
जन्मनोऽत्थं मृतोत्थं च विद्यते परमार्थतः।।४३।।
na tasya sūtakaṁ kiñcinprāṇaliṅgāṅgasaṅginaḥ |
janmano'tthaṁ mṛtotthaṁ ca vidyate paramārthataḥ ||43||
In the case of the devotee who is associated with the
Prāṇaliṅga as his soul, there is no impurity (sūtaka) whatever
arising from birth and that arising from death in the ultimate
sense. (43)
लिङ्गार्चनरतायाश्च ऋतौ नार्या न सूतकम्।
तथा प्रसूतिकायाश्च सूतकं नैव विद्यते।।४४।।
liṅgārcanaratāyāśca ṛtau nāryā na sūtakam |
tathā prasūtikāyāśca sūtakaṁ naiva vidyate ||44||
There is no impurity for a woman during menses so far
as she is engaged in the worship of the Liṅga. Similarly there
is no impurity for her during her post-delivery period. (44)
गृहे यस्मिन् प्रसूता स्त्री सूतकं नात्र विद्यते ।
शिवपादाम्बुसंस्पर्शात् सर्वपापं प्रणश्यति ।।४५।।
gṛhe yasmin prasūtā strī sūtakaṁ nātra vidyate |
śivapādāmbusaṁsparśāt sarvapāpaṁ praṇaśyati ||45||
