The touch of Sakti (Saktisparsa) Selected texts of non dualistic Saivism of Kashmir. 4. Conclusion The question of the liberating and critical potential of Trika Saivism. Bibliography. Index. The Kas…hmirian Saiva tradition in its non dualistic form in particular is one of the richest philosophical traditions of India that have survived to the present day. This book by the noted scholar Dr. Furlinger deals with the bodily experience of the transcendent power the Sakti in the context of the Saiva Kundalini Yoga. In an insightful introduction the scholar presents an overview of the historical development of the Kashmirian Saiva traditions especially of the non dualistic system Trika made famous by the work of its famous proponent Abhinavagupta. He studies the theme of Saktisparsa in selected texts of non dualistic Trika Saivism of Kashmir focusing on Utpaladeva's Sivastotravali of the tenth century and Abhinavagupta's Tantraloka of the eleventh century. The texts are analyzed along with a noted commentary associated with each to shed light on the different contexts and meanings in which the word Sparsa occurs in connection with Sakti the divine power revered as the Goddess. The study examines Sparsa as one of the highest stages in the spiritual ascent in the Tantraloka and its corresponding description in the Sivastotravali. The difference in the notion of Sparsa in the two texts is also brought out. It thus reveals the liberating and critical potential of the non dualistic Saiva tradition of Kashmir. The book will interest scholars and students of Indology associated with Indian religious philosophical traditions. 288 pp.
