बन्धमोक्षवर्णनम्
Bondage and Liberation: The Prakṛti–Karma Wheel and Śiva as the Transcendent Cause
ऐश्वर्यं दिव्यदेहश्च ज्ञानमज्ञानसंशयः । शिवसान्निध्यमित्येते क्रियादीनां फलं भवेत्
aiśvaryaṃ divyadehaśca jñānamajñānasaṃśayaḥ | śivasānnidhyamityete kriyādīnāṃ phalaṃ bhavet
自在なる霊的繁栄(アイシュヴァリヤ)、清浄なる天妙の身、無明と疑いを断つ真知、そして主シヴァの御前に近づくこと——これらが、クリヤー等の修行の果であると説かれる。
Suta Goswami
Tattva Level: pati
Shiva Form: Sadāśiva
Significance: States the soteriological outcomes of Śaiva practice: aiśvarya, divya-deha, jñāna, and Śiva-sānnidhya—classically culminating in grace and liberation.
Role: liberating
It summarizes the core fruits of Shaiva practice: upliftment (aiśvarya), purification and divine embodiment (divya-deha), liberating knowledge that dispels ignorance and doubt (jñāna), and the culminating blessing of Śiva’s nearness (śiva-sānnidhya).
The verse frames ritual action (kriyā)—such as Linga-pūjā, mantra-japa, and offerings—as a means to attain not only worldly upliftment but, more importantly, inner purification and steady proximity to Saguna Śiva, which matures into liberating insight.
It points to “kriyā and allied disciplines,” which in the Vidyeśvara context commonly include Panchākṣarī japa (Om Namaḥ Śivāya), Linga worship, and Shaiva observances like bhasma (Tripuṇḍra) and Rudrākṣa as supportive aids to purity and Śiva-sānnidhya.
