Quotes on the Trika:

edit
  • The trika is the essence of the śaiva tradition, and the Mālinī is the essence of the trika. (Abhinavagupta)
  • In the Trika the god Śiva mostly appears in the hypostasis of Bhairava. (Raniero Gnoli)
  • Since all aspects of reality are in fact nothing more than the rhythms of divine energy and its all-pervading vibration, the Trika and Kaula systems do not contrast matter with spirit, body with soul, microcosm with macrocosm , but they recognize only one original rhythm that propagates freely from level to level. (Lilian Silburn)
