A brilliant exposition of Tantric tradition. Mishra profoundly explains a system which allows us to fully integrate spiritual inquiry and practice with the mundane goal of physical enjoyment (and) worldly involvement. For spiritual seekers of any sort, with a true interest in understanding the nature of Tantra. This book will finally provide true insight into the ways and means of Tantric philosophy. The present work is an exposition of the philosophy and religionofthe Trika system, popularly known as Kashmir Saivism. Kashmir Saivism is the most prominent system of the Tantric traditional on. The author considers Kashmir Śaivism the true or central philosophy of Tantrism. In this book, he attempts to present alogical analysis of the Tantric position of Abhinavagupta. He has also shown, according to his understanding, what remains unresolved and unanswered in his philosophy, but he admits that in the present work he is mainly playing the role of advocate of Abhinavagupta rather than critic. He is trying (a) to justify the Tantric position from the rational point of view, (b) to work out aconsistent philosophy of Kashmir Saivism, (c) to present the rationale of the abstruse Tantric tradition, (d) to trace out and clarify the inner thread of logic running through the entire system of thought, and (e) to demonstrate the soundness and significance of Kashmir Śaivism.
