The Vision of Śiva7.6

7.6
ज्ञाते शिवत्वे सर्वस्थे प्रतिपत्त्या दृढात्मना । करणेन नास्ति कृत्यं क्वापि भावनयापिवा ॥६॥
jñāte śivatve sarvasthe pratipattyā dṛḍhātmanā | karaṇena nāsti kṛtyaṃ kvāpi bhāvanayāpivā
— when (it is) known ; — Śiva-nature ; — present in all ; — by an apprehension ; — firm in nature ; — with an instrument ; — there is no need ; — anywhere ; — or even with meditative cultivation

When the Śiva-nature present in all is known by a firm apprehension, there is nowhere any need of an instrument, nor even of meditative cultivation (— recognition alone liberates).
