Paramārthasāra of Abhinavagupta (in Sanskrit couplets) is the foremost work on Kashmir Śaivism, meant for beginners. It throws clear light on the most of the philosophical principles of the subject without involving in logical discussion. The work clarifies the significance of the principles of Kashmir Śaivism which are as follows: (1) cosmogony (1-9); (2) metaphysics and ontology (10-13); (3) process of creation (14-22); (4) bondage and liberation (23- 33); (5) exact reality about phenomenon (34-38); (6) correct knowledge (39-46); (7) self-realization (47-67); (8) A yogin after self-realization (68- 88); (9) process of transformation (89-93); (10) character of a liberated yogin (94-96); and (11) liberation of steps (97-102). The last two concepts conclude the work. The translation and notes further clarify the principles discussed in the couplets. Dr. B.N. Pandit is an authority on Kashmir Śaivism. He was Reader in Sanskrit in Jammu University. He has published several works in English, Sanskrit and Hindi. His Encyclopaedia of Kashmir Śaivism shall serve scholars for several centuries.
