The Essence of the Tantra9.5

9.5

शक्तिमद्रूपप्रधाने तु प्रमातृवर्गे यत् विश्रान्तं तच् छक्तिमच् छिवरूपं श्रीमत्पराभट्टारिकानुग्रहात् तद् अपि सप्तविधम्

Transliteration (IAST)

śaktimadrūpapradhāne tu pramātṛvarge yat viśrāntaṃ tac chaktimac chivarūpaṃ śrīmatparābhaṭṭārikānugrahāt tad api saptavidham

— in which the form of the power-holder predominates ; — in the class of perceivers ; — that which has come to rest ; — possessed of power, the power-holding ; — the form of Śiva ; — through the grace of the venerable Parā (the supreme Goddess) ; — that too is sevenfold

But that which comes to rest in the class of perceivers in which the power-holder's form predominates is the power-holding Śiva-form, arising through the grace of the venerable Parā; and that too is sevenfold.
