Guest guest Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 93 Interesting to note what this name exactly means. I do not remember now it's exact spelling (that is either samayAntasthA or samayAnataHsthA), but it doesn't affect the meaning much. In both cases Devi is said to be present (sthA) INSIDE (antaH) or IN THE END (anta) of samaya. That presupposes samayachara is not the highest one. Thus again we come to the doctrine of kaula being the highest achara, which is the view of Shakta-Tantras and tantric siddhas. A. > LS:97: Samayanthasta: Living in Samaya. > > Samaya is generally explained as offering worship, etc., to a > chakra in the ether of the heart. That worship is unanimously > decided by all the yogins as the supreme, hence it is called samaya. > He adds that samaya can also mean the five books shubhagama panchaka > because they describe this internal worship.
