Thank you for all these postings and threads about Kashmir Shaivism and welcome back to the Hindu forum.
There are not many of us who live here and who will read this.... I have already read all these things before the last time you did this...a couple of years ago.
I am fascinated by the concept of Kula and how it relates to Vishistadvaita and I have read the Shiva Sutras before anyway...they remind me of the Shiva Rahasya Stotram (Ribu Gita) in the way they describe qualified Non Duality.
This is a massive effort you have achieved in such a short time... it took me a whole week to get through the first 10 lessons in the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra and transcribe it on here....it took a week and I only had those ten posts to show for it...I gave up due to lack of patience.
I did the same thing with the Dakshinamurthy Stotram, the Svetasvatara Upanishad and the Ribu Gita...I got about a quarter way through it and stopped because I realised I was biting off more than I could chew at any one time.
Your marathon effort inspires me to continue with what I have been doing previously.
There is nothing I have to say or critique because I am a Shaiva myself and I just "get" these things, but not many do.
I just need to apply myself more dilligently than I have been doing because I understand that I am infinitely more capable than I am letting on..or even giving myself the credit for...and all you have related today in these three threads, just goes to illustrate it.
Keep up the good work.
