Discussion on the Nepalese Śaiva-Śākta Tantra - Ācārya Dr. Sthaneshwar Timalsina

In this talk given by Śaivācārya and Professor Sthaneshwar Timalsina at Stanford University, he gives an introduction to the Nepalese Sarvāmnāya system. This system presents an integration of all transmissions (āmnāya) from the Śaiva-Śākta Tantra, where Śiva is the ṛṣi that reveals the different traditions of the Goddess. Such imagery is present in the Pashupatinath temple from Nepal, when we observe the Śiva liṅga with 6 faces, each one revealing a different āmnāya. Despite being predominantly Śaiva-Śākta in its nature, this system also integrates buddhist deities and practices. The conversation ends with a Q/A session in which several topics are covered, like visualization practices and maṇḍalas etc.

नमस्ते गुरुजी, सादर प्रणाम, आप बहुत ज्ञानी हैं, हम भारतीयों का अभाग्य की आप जैसे महान गुरु को भारत अपने यहाँ जगह नहीं दे सका, परन्तु हर्ष है की आपने अपनी साधना अपनी शिक्षा अपनी विद्या जारी रखी, आज आपके 3 अवतारों की कथा सुन कर बहुत अच्छा लगा, आप जो कहानी सुनाते हैं, बहुत विस्मय होता है सुन कर, मेरे मानस पटल पर आपकी सुनाई एक कहानी अंकित हो गई थी जिसमें आपने बताया था की आपके कुछ मित्र जब आपके बगीचे में आए थे, उनको नही पता था की कद्दू कहाँ उगता है। पेड़ पर या धरा पर, आपको मलिका माई प्रचूर मात्रा में धन संपदा ऐश्वर्य सुख शांति दे, पर आप मेरा हृदय आघात कर देते हैं जब आप कहते हैं की अद्वैत में रस नही है, ऐसे ही स्वामी सर्वप्रियनंदा भी मुझे पीड़ा देते हैं जब वो कश्मीर तंत्र को अधूरा बता देते हैं, पर आज आप से एक बात और सीखी की यह सब बाद विवाद मात्र मखौल के लिए भी किया जाता था, अंततोगत्वा सब तंत्र एक ही सत्य की बात करते हैं।

Professor, vikrahas are being made near my home town in Tamilnadu in both wood and bronze. There are only dozens of families involved in parambara way. Now I understand why i should patronize them so that those arts don't vanish
