vimarsarUpini: In the Vimarsa Form

 

Vimarsa is the [first] inherent vibration of Parabrahman who is in the

prakasA aspect. The SaubhAgyasudhodaya says, "In that [brahman] there

is an inherent sakti in the form of vibration called Vimarsa. That

[sakti] produces the animate and inanimate universe, the same also

destroyes it."

 

Or Vimarsa means significant words, ie speech. The MAtrkAviveka

says, "Without vimarsa [speech] how is thought [prakAsa] manifested?

Without thought to be spoken of, how can there be speech? Therefore

thought is required for the existence of speech, and thought, even

when there is self-consciousness [ for its own existence ] requires

speech"
