The Shiva-Sutra Vimarsini of Ksemaraja
The Shiva Sutras is a manual of Yoga. It is divided into three Unmesas, each treating of one particular means, Upaya, for reaching independence Svacchanda. The first is the Shambhavopaya, the specific Shaiva discipline and corresponds to the Jnanamarga of the Vedantins, and what is called in the Bhagvad Gita, The Jnanayoga of the Sankhyas,also the avyaktagatih. The second, the Shaktopaya is the same as Shakta discipline and consists in the use of mantras and attainment of knowledge by their means. The third called the Anavopaya is the Astanga Yoga of Patanjali. The three Upayas are treated in the order of their worth; the Shambhava being the first and most excellent, and the Anava being the least worthy and not recognized by Vasugupta in his Spandakarika.

काश्मीर शिवाद्वयवाद की मूल अवधारणाएं
आगमिक संस्कृति के सारभूत काश्मीर शिवाद्वयवादी जीवन-दर्शन के प्रति विद्यानों की अनुदिन बढ़ती हुई प्रवृत्ति के बावजूद इस सम्प्रदाय की दार्शनिक, पद्यात्मक/अवधानात्मक और अनुष्ठानात्मक संरचना पर अब तक जो काम हुआ है वह बहुमूल्य होने पर भी अत्यल्प है. इस सन्दर्भा में गंभीर गवेषणा को आगे बढ़ाने के क्रम में यह ग्रन्थ एक प्रारंभिक प्रयास है जिसमें कश्मीर शिवाद्वयवाद के मौलिक चिंतनक्रम में अनुस्यूत आधारभूत विशिष्टा प्रत्ययों को रूपायित कर उनके उन्मीलन से इस सम्प्रदाय में एक अंतर्दृष्टि विक्सित करने की चेष्टा की गयी है.
Saiva Philosophy of Kashmir
The goal and purpose in writing this book is to highlight,in the midst of diversity,the essential unity that seems to be constitutive of such religions that have an orientation that is deeply mystical. Basing himself on the absolutistic metaphysical thought of Kashmir Saivism,the author thereby has attempted to interpret spirituality in such universal terms as would enable one to discover the principle of unity of being among the spiritualities of all major religions.Thus the aim of the book is so noble as to allow the reader to have the vision of unity in the midst of diversity.
Vijnana Bhairava or Divine Consciousness

It studiously eschews mechanical worship,external rites and ceremonies and goes directly to the heart of the problem of the union of humanconsciousness withthe Divine. There is no theoretical discussion in the Book.It describes112 types of yoga each of which is a precious gem delineating the mystic approach to the Divine. For this purpose, it makes full use of all the aspects of human life--prana, manas, imagination and intuition.
