Due to Rajasic quality they fought and hit each other with fists. In order to dispel their arrogance and to enlighten them, the wonderful Lihga of the lord appeared in between them. It had thousands of flames. It was incomprehensible and incomparable. It did not increase or decrease. It had no beginning, no middle, no end. Brahma and Visnu were enchanted by thousands of flames. Ceasing from their fight they began to think "What is this?" When they could not understand the reality they attempted to survey its beginning and end.

It established Tamas and Rudra the first among the deities in the rites, annihilation in the three worlds and the excellent Siva in the Tattvas, Aghora in the five Brahmans and Vidya among the Kalas, the upper seat in the parts of the Lihga and the source in the three causes. So also the Aisvarya of the Purusa. Thus the universe is pervaded by the Saman.

Then the Atharvaveda established itself thus. It was devoid of Gunas. It placed Mahesvara, Sadasiva as the first among the deities. Though the great Atman, Siva is devoid of activities. It established Sadasiva for the purpase of activities. It created pure blessing whereby the creatures are liberated. Above the worlds, where the words recede along with the mind are the Unmana worlds over which is the divine Somaloka where the lord stays with Uma.

Among the Tattvas it is the greater Tattva than Bindu, Nada and Sakti. It is greater than the greatest and in reality a non-Tattva. It transcends the three causes..It is beyond Maya the cause of agitation. It is beyond Ananta, the Suddhavidya, Mahesvara, Sadasiva the great lord of all lores. It is beyond the lord who has mantras for his body, who is accompanied by all Saktis, who has five faces and ten arms and who is both Sakala and Niskala. Beyond even that, beyond the Bindu, the half moon, the moon, the

Rgveda said again — "The state of wakefulness is being mentioned by me whereby I perpetually express the Atmatattva". Yajurveda said— "The state of dream is being mentioned by me because the Vidya that has transformed itself into objects of enjoyments is to be known through me." Samaveda said: — ''What is called sound slumber is being mentioned wholly by me through Siva that is my meaning and Tamasic in form. Atharvaveda said:--"What is called the fourth stage and what is beyond the fourth is expressed by me." The three which are of the nature of the path are ter¬ med Siva, Vidya, Atman. Their state of three attributes is attainable through the Vedas and shall be purified by him who wishes for Siva's region. What is called Turiya, beyond the path is the greatest region of salvation. That which is beyond it is the purifier of this path because of its attribute¬ less state. The Nada is the measurer of both. The end of Nada has me for its Atman. Hence the supreme lord is the chief in view of freedom from my topics. Whatever object is there whether compounded or separated, they call as the meaning of Pranava in view of the association of the Gunas. Therefore, this single-syllabled Brahman is the expression of all meanings.

Since the Linga can do nothing by itself with¬ out being commanded by Siva, since the dissolution of the universe born of it is only within it, this constitutes the state of being Linga in Siva and not due to any other reason. The Linga is the body of Siva and Siva because it is presided over by them.

Since they arc pure it is their body only in a secondary sense. That is the great Sakti of Siva the great Atman. Sakti at the behest of Siva gives birth to mobile and immobile beings.

After dividing myself into three, I create, protect and annihi¬ late. There is none in the universe who has created me." When thus addressed Visnu said to Brahma.
