The Vijnana Bhairava Tantra

It would be merely in name. Supreme status—that is, preeminence—does not arise through the differentiation of letters, such as white and the rest, nor through the form of the alphabet, nor through the differentiation of the body, such as relying on specific physical locations like the dvadashanta the center twelve fingers above the crown. Rather, it arises through being devoid of the creation of parts. In the state of having parts, this is impossible. Verses 5-6

Thus, the Goddess of Consciousness, whose heart is reflecting on the meaning of the entire range of scriptures and whose meaning of reality has become focused, wishing to reveal her own full Vijnana Bhairava Knowledge of Bhairava nature, says:

Reveal to me your own form, which has been purified by the pacification of the obscurations of maya illusion and mahamaya great illusion, and quell this doubt of nine-fold parts entirely.

Thus, the Goddess herself, having attained the state of Bhairava, became free of desire, her nature being spontaneous, and spoke according to the aforementioned logic. Indeed, such is the consciousness in all beings, skillful in asking and answering questions even in all worldly dealings, though here it is specific to the subject of the unsurpassable reality. As stated in the Shri Svacchanda Tantra:

"Standing in the position of teacher and student, the Lord Sadashiva himself brought down the Tantra through sentences of former and latter parts."
