Abhinavagupta's Paryantapañcāśikā on the ultimate Bhairava state. Sanskrit via GRETIL.

Textual history

A fifty-verse treatise on the ultimate (paryanta) Bhairava state — compact philosophical poetry at the edge of Abhinavagupta's nondual teaching. It belongs with his shorter prakaraṇas rather than the great tantric summae. The digital Sanskrit text on GRETIL derives from Marino Faliero's Gandharva-nagaram encoding.
