शिवज्ञानबोध (मेय्कण्डार - शैव सिद्धान्त का आधारभूत दार्शनिक सूत्र ग्रन्थ)

FIRST SUTRA. 3
He gives each his form as he desires it, just as the worm
in a wasp's nest gets the form it desires.
(c). Just as Time the producer of all changes, itself re-
mains without change, so God who creates, developes, and
destroys the world without any mechanical means and by
his mere will, remains without change. He has in conse-
quence no ties (Pasa Bantham) just like the mind having
certain impressions, itself remains different (i.e., does not
become changed into them) and like the man who has
learnt the truth in the waking state will not be misled by
the dreams he has had.
or
God is eternal and like Time is without change when
with His mere will and without any mechanical means, He
creates, developes and destroys the world. His creation is
without any purpose to Himself as the dreamer finds no
benefit in his dreams in his waking state.
Third Argument.
Churnika.—The other two (Vishnu and Brahma) are also
subject to these three changes.
Varthikam.—As the known cosmic entity has no power
of action except through the unknown author of Samharam,
this author, Hara is the only supreme God.
Udarana.—Hara who is neither the one nor the other
in the Universe of mind and matter, is the only Supreme
being of the said Universe, as the Universe of mind also
becomes dissolved in Him in the same way, after they
(minds) had been created and developed. The said Universe
of mind which like Him is eternal, is subordinate to Him
even in Moksha.
