Ep 14 ~ The Three Stages of Awakening

This week’s solo episode explores the teaching of the three stages of awakening, or three samāveśas, rooted in the 7th-century Mālinīvijayottaratantra and further elaborated by Abhinavagupta in Tantrasāra. This teaching, preserved both in the scriptures and through oral transmission, clarifies the multifaceted nature of spiritual awakening. Each of the samāveśas, which means ‘immersion,’ represents an immersion into a fundamental aspect of ultimate reality. This episode unpacks these stages to provide a clearer understanding of the spiritual awakening process, which, while not always linear, shares commonalities across different traditions and ways people experience it. The 3 Immersions: āṇava-samāveśa – immersion into one’s essence-nature shākta-samāveśa – immersion into the total field of energy shāmbhava-samāveśa – immersion into the divine Absolute (the field of absolute potential) Terms: anuttara – ultimate citta – heart-mind mahāśūnya – the great void pralaya – disappearance pratibhā – intuitive insight, embodied instinct, creative inspiration saṃbodha – awakening śūnyātiśūnya – the void beyond void svabhāva – essence nature viśrānti – repose in the ground of one’s being The 3 Impurities āṇava-mala – the impurity of individuality māyīya-mala – impurity of differentiation kārma-mala – the impurity of action References: Tantrasāra, The Essence of The Tantras (see episodes 4, 8, and 12 of this podcast) Academia: Somadeva Vasudeva, The Yoga of the Mālinīvijayottaratantra. ~~~~~~~ Study Online Explore over 1000 hours of Classical Tantra teachings on Tantra Illuminated Online, including guided meditations, retreats, Sanskrit and mantra recitation practices, and asana classes ► https://www.tantrailluminated.org/sub... ~~~~~~~ Practise & Learn in Community Deepen your practice by joining Christopher at workshops and retreats, available both in-person and online ► https://www.tantrailluminated.org/cal... ~~~~~~~ Read Christopher’s Books Discover the newly released 'Near Enemies of the Truth' ► https://amzn.to/4aeoj4L Alongside the foundational 'Tantra Illuminated' ► https://amzn.to/3TDawzg And 'The Recognition Sutras' ► https://amzn.to/43ipfmw ~~~~~~~ Stay Connected Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to hear about upcoming events, pilgrimages, and newly released courses ► https://www.tantrailluminated.org/soc... ~~~~~~~ Explore the Blog Over 150 free articles offering comprehensive translations and insightful explanations of Tantrik scriptures and teachings ► https://hareesh.org/blogpage Engage with a global community passionate about non-duality, the nature of reality, and liberation at ► https://www.tantrailluminated.org/ #yoga #nonduality #awakening #liberation #natureofreality #sanskrit #consciousness #awareness #spirituality #meditation #guidedmeditation #tantra #embodiment #classicaltantra
