The Tripura Rahasya (Devanagari: त्रिपुरा रहस्य, ) meaning ''The Mystery beyond the Trinity'', is an ancient literary work in Sanskrit believed to have been narrated by Dattatreya to Parashurama.It is an ancient prime text is one of the treatise on Advaita school of classical Indian Metaphysics. ==Textual History and Structure== Tripura means three cities or the trinity. Rahasya means secret or mystery. In a sense there is no secret to be revealed. It is only due to our lack of wisdom that we do not experience our true nature. Therefore mystery would be a more appropriate translation. Thus Tripura Rahasya means the Mystery beyond the Trinity.The three cities or states of consciousness are waking (Jagrut), dreaming (Svapna) and Shushupti (deep sleep). The underlying consciousness in them all is called Sri Tripura, the Mother Goddess. The Tripura Rahasya expounds the teachings of the supreme spiritual truth. The highest truth was first taught by Lord Shiva to Lord Vishnu. Lord Vishnu incarnated on earth as Sri Dattatreya, Lord of the Avadhutas, who taught this to Parasurama, who later taught it to Haritayana. The Tripura Rahasya is a dialogue between Lord Dattatreya and Parasurama.It is also called the Haritayana Samhita after its author Haritayana, son of Harita. It is said to consist of 12,000 slokas in three sections - The Mahatmya Khanda (Section on the Greatness of Sri Devi), Jnana Khanda (Section on Supreme Wisdom), and Charya Khanda (Section on Conduct). Of these the first consists of 6,687 slokas; the second of 2,163 slokas; and the third is not traceable. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tripura Rahasya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
