|| Saiva Tantra ||
Agamas and Tantras are a vast collection of knowledge and form a major portion
of spiritual literature and practices. Like the Veda, they have come down through
Guru-Sishya parampara, in oral traditions. Agamas form the base for many of the
popular as well as specialist aspects of Hinduism.
The word Agama means 'that which has come to (us)'. Tantra means 'that which
protects with detail'. Sruti, the eternal word, is said to be of two forms Nigama
(Veda) and Agama. Two kinds of texts, Agama and Tantra are in general grouped
under the same class of literature.
There are three main classes of Agamic/Tantric texts Vaishnava Agamas, Saiva
Agamas and Sakta Tantras, though not limited to these. The Vaishnava and
Saiva texts are generally called Agamas, while the word Tantra in general applies
to Sakta texts. However, technically Tantra is a part of Agama and owing to the
centrality of Tantra the two words are used often interchangeably.
The five face of Shiva represents the five branches of Saiva Tantra and the 5
faces of Lord Shiva defines the 5 different Saiva Agamas.
Five Faces of Lord Shiva:
1. Sadyojata - West Face:
1)Brahmma
2)Kashyapa
3)Shivagocharaadi (born out of shiva and 25 Aagamas)
4)Bhoota
5)Chandaasidhara
6)Laukika
7)Guhya
West is called as Paschima or Pratyak. The soul is called as Pratyagaatma.
Sadyaha which means just now and Jataha means now born. Shiva makes his
presence felt through the countless souls being born. Hence the apt name
'Sadyosata'. This shows the creative aspect of Parameshvara. Since the very
existence of any being starts from its birth, the Sadyosata aspect of Lord Shiva is
prayed first.
The essence of the Sadyosata Mantra is : "O! Lord ! Sadyojaata, never give me
desires which are the reason for this countless births and deaths. Please Bless
me with the passion for liberation. My prayers to Sadyosata.
This Sadyosata aspect is correlated with the following;
To Shi Beekakshara in Panchakshara Mantra
To Mano Maya Kosha amongst the five Koshas
To Agni principle among five principles Pancha Bhuta.

To Manipuraka among Six Chakras

To Panchama (Pa) Swara among the Seven Swaras
To Ma in 'Omkara'
In this face, there are 28 Aagamas and 207 sub Aagamas(upaagamas)
Kamikaagama with 3 upaagamas
yogajaagama with 100000 grandhas and 5 upaagamas
chinthyaagama- 200000 grandhas and 6 upaagamas
Karanaagama with 1ooooooo grandhas and 7 upaagamas

4)Vaama
5)Sammohana

Shaivic divisionThe term Vama means Left or innocent. If we stand facing east, North direction is
to our left. Hence the north facing Shiva is worshipped as Vaama Deva. The left
of a person is representative of the Shakti aspect. It represents Maya and the
feminine strength and beauty, Hence in Ardha Nareeshwara aspect, we find the
goddess on the left side.
The beautiful Vaama Deva is more ancient that the worlds creation. Hence he is
the eldest. Since he is more worthy than others, he is the best. In catastrophic
times, he is Rudra. He is Kaala in creation and causes the erosion of ones age.
This Vaama Deva aspect is correlated with the following;
To Vaa Beekakshara in Panchakshara Mantra

4)Amsumathaagama with 500000 grandhaas and 12 upaagamas

3)Jyothir gocharaadi(born from the Bindu, 20 aagamas)
4)Bhairava
5)Asitaadi
6)Aadhyaatma
7)Aghora
If we stand facing east, south is our right. Hence right side is called as Bala. As
important as right hand is for humans, The South face is important to Lord Shiva.
This is also famously known as Dakshina Murthy.
To know about the essence of the Adhora principle of Lord Shiva, one has to
understand the meaning of the Aghora Mantra among the Pancha Brahma
Mantra.
Those who worshipped the Aghora form of Shiva were called as Aghoris. Their
main belief is that there is no such thing called inauspicious in this world
because all that exists if Shiva himself. They generally live in graveyards and are
naked. They use those things which the world has branded as inauspicious.
They perform harsh penance. Those who worship Aghora form of Shiva are
saved from natural catastrophe, water hardships and life threats.

The word Tat represents Paramatma. Tatpurusha means Saguna filled Para
Brahma form. This is a important face of Parama Shiva. The form of Shiva that is
in meditation and Blessing the world is this face. Hence this eastern face is

total control and ownership of all the fourteen worlds. Such form of Shiva, who is
the total owner of the fourteen worlds, is called as Eeshna.
This face is skywards. Which means it is on top of the other four faces which face
the four directions. This fifth face of Shiva represents the creation balance
