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.
