Textual history

An eight-verse hymn-treatise on Anuttara — the unsurpassed absolute — in Abhinavagupta's Trika vocabulary. Like his other short stotra/prakaraṇa texts, it was preserved in Kashmiri anthologies of Śaiva verse and entered modern print and digital corpora via the Gandharva-nagaram encodings hosted on GRETIL.
