Rating:  Summary: A Divinely-Inspired Treasure Box of Transcendental Wisdom. Review: A word of warning for all newcomers to the Shaivite world:- You should not expect to be able to assimilate even the minutest fraction of this sacred text if you have scant karmic affinity with, and/or prema for Divine Lord Shiva. And, to get the most out of this book, you should also have some familiarity with kundalini yoga terminology and the Saivagama teachings. Otherwise, you will be floundering in wave after wave of obscure terminologies and concepts. The Siva Sutras were bestowed on Sri Vasugupta of Kashmir by Lord Mahadeva himself. Here, in this present edition, they come wedded with Sri Ksemaraja's expert Vimarsini commentary. The compiler Jaideva Singh was a pupil of Lakshman Joo - the last comtemporary doyen of Trika Saivism - and as such this book is a pure distillation of the foundational teachings of the Trika sect. The repeated study of these 77 aphorisms along with Ksemaraja's commentaries can only foster growing respect for the Siva Sutras being an authoritative compendium of vital yogic techniques which lead one to Final Moksha, or absorption in Siva-Consciousness --- the original source and final resting-place of every jiva/sentient being. Thus, should you approach these Sutras with adequate preparation and sincere bhakti(devotion), you might just forge from your understanding of them your very own unique path to salvation. Aum Namah Sivaya
