FAQs
It teaches that Śiva’s grace operates through Śāmbhavī dīkṣā, and that liberation depends on how strongly the bonds (pāśa)—karmic and impurity-based fetters—are weakened and finally destroyed.
Śāmbhavī dīkṣā authorizes and empowers Śaiva worship—especially Linga-upāsanā and mantra—so the devotee’s relationship with Saguna Śiva becomes a means for pāśa-kṣaya (dissolution of bondage) leading toward realization of Pati (Śiva).
Seek Śaiva dīkṣā under a competent guru and sustain daily mantra-japa (notably the Pañcākṣarī “Om Namaḥ Śivāya”) along with Śiva-pūjā; these are presented as practical means by which the fetters are progressively weakened.
