WHAT IS HINDUISM?
The Tenets of Tantric Hinduism.......................................................................
Hindu Tantric theology, and in particular the schools
of Tantric Hinduism derived from Kashmir and known
collectively as ‘Kashmir Shaivism’, understand the essential
nature of the Divine as Pure Awareness (personified by
the god Shiva) and its Pure Power (the goddess or Shakti).
“THE BEING OF ALL THINGS RECOGNISED IN
AWARENESS IN TURN DEPENDS ON AWARENESS.”
AbhinavaguptaGOD IS NOT A SUPREME BEING ‘WITH’ AWARENESS.
GOD IS AWARENESS.JUST AS THERE CAN BE NOTHING ‘OUTSIDE’ SPACE
SO THERE CAN BE NOTHING OUTSIDE AWARENESS,
NOTHING OUTSIDE GOD.JUST AS EVERYTHING EXISTS WITHIN AWARENESS,
SO DOES EVERYTHING EXIST WITHIN GOD.JUST AS AWARENESS IS WITHIN EVERYTHING,
SO GOD IS WITHIN EVERYTHING.
