Spanda Karika

The Spanda Karika is a key text in Kashmiri Shaivism that explores the divine energy, or "Spanda," which underlies all existence. It explains how consciousness, vibration, and creative power flow through the universe, integrating the individual soul with the universal consciousness. Essentially, it teaches that everything is a dynamic expression of divine energy, and by understanding this subtle movement—Spanda—one can realize their true nature and attain spiritual awakening. The text combines philosophy, meditation, and practical guidance to help practitioners experience the divine presence within themselves and the universe.
