Rudra’s Cosmic Dance and the Recognition of Rudra–Nārāyaṇa Unity (Īśvara-gītā Continuation)
इति श्रीकूर्मपुराणे षट्साहस्त्र्यां संहितायामुपरिविभागे (ईश्वरगीतासु) चतुर्थो ऽध्यायः व्यास उवाच एतावदुक्त्वा भगवान् योगिनां परमेश्वरः / ननर्त परमं भावमैश्वरं संप्रदर्शयन्
iti śrīkūrmapurāṇe ṣaṭsāhastryāṃ saṃhitāyāmuparivibhāge (īśvaragītāsu) caturtho 'dhyāyaḥ vyāsa uvāca etāvaduktvā bhagavān yogināṃ parameśvaraḥ / nanarta paramaṃ bhāvamaiśvaraṃ saṃpradarśayan
Assim, no Śrī Kūrma Purāṇa, na Ṣaṭsāhasrī Saṃhitā, na seção posterior, dentro da Īśvara-gītā, conclui-se o Quarto Capítulo. Vyāsa disse: Tendo dito tudo isso, o Senhor Bem-aventurado—Parameśvara, o Supremo dos iogues—então dançou a dança divina, revelando o estado mais alto e soberano da Senhoria.

FAQs
It points to the Supreme as Īśvara/Parameśvara—one whose highest ‘bhāva’ (state of being) is directly manifest and sovereign (aiśvarya), implying a realized, self-luminous divine reality disclosed to yogins.
While not listing techniques, it frames the teaching as addressed to yogins and culminates in a revelation (saṃpradarśana) of the supreme state—suggesting Yoga as direct experiential realization of Īśvara rather than mere theory.
By using the title Parameśvara and presenting a divine dance and lordly revelation within the Īśvara-gītā context, it supports the Purāṇa’s synthetic theology where the Supreme Lord can be spoken of in Śaiva terms while remaining compatible with Vaiṣṇava identity.
