FAQs
By portraying the Supreme Goddess (Parameśvarī) as the giver of “abhaya” to yogins, the verse implies that realization culminates in fearlessness—an Atman-centered state where the yogin abides beyond change and threat.
The verse highlights the yogic fruit of practice—abhaya (fearlessness). In the Ishvara Gita’s Shaiva-Yoga frame, such fearlessness is associated with steady absorption, inner detachment, and divine grace that stabilizes the practitioner’s mind.
Though not naming Vishnu directly, the Ishvara Gita context in the Kurma Purana typically presents divine unity: the Supreme (Ishvara) is one, expressed through Shaiva-Shakti authority while harmonizing with Vaishnava narration—supporting a non-sectarian synthesis.
