There is no book the master is quoting from. He is reading the original sutras which may be 1-2 sentences long. The Master is then dwelving into Shiva Consciousness to make them understandable for us.

Rough transcript -- 0.07 Namashivaya I welcome you all with my love and respects This beautiful book starts with the word .... means 'Shiva said', straight away Shiva is entering into the techniques. He is not giving any intellectual introduction. He is not giving any teachings. Let's enter into the Sutra, then we will see the meaning, we will understand it. [Sutra] Straight he is entering into the subject. He is not giving any intellectual introduction. To tell you honestly, the first spiritual book without introduction. Straight to the point of enlightenment. He is not interested wasting his time. He is not interested in giving you words. He is not interested in giving you any teachings. No teachings. No words. Straight to the subject. Straight to the point of enlightenment. He is not interested in convincing. Let me be honest - almost all teachings is given, either to convince you that the teacher is a great person, or to convince himself what he is believing is something truth. 2.44 There's an incident which is happened maybe one year ago. I went to attend an inter-religious conference. In it I was sitting next to a father. I was saying I have a training center for meditation teachers in our Bidadi ashram. I said more than 200 people are having the training. He laughed and told me, 'Swamiji, I have 16 training centers in Bombai only, and each center I have more than 400 preachers'. I was shocked. And then I start saying, 'You will have more people because you convert people'. Somehow in Sanatana hindu dharma we don't believe in conversion, we believe it's a psychological violence, conversion is a psychological violence. So I said because of conversion you may have more people. Then slowly it goes on the conversation. After sometime he understood I'm teaching meditation and I'm helping people and giving people life solutions. He asked me, 'Swamiji, I want to speak to you privately sometime'. I said, 'you are welcome'. He came and spent more than one hour. He was asking for some solution for his personal problems. I tried to help him. He was very happy and he was helped. After everything was over, he was about to leave, at that time I asked him, 'see, one thing you surely don't have solution from what you are teaching, then why are you teaching so aggressively?' I know he goes on condemning other religions. See saying your religion is great is beautiful is nothing wrong. But saying nothing else is truth, that's where the problem starts. He goes on condemning. And I know some of the preachers what they do in India. Let me tell one more story about that later. Now let me finish this. He goes on condemning all other religions. I told him, 'You yourself don't find solutions for your own life, why do you teach so aggressively?' By the time he becomes very open and he starts speaking the truth. He told me, 'Swamiji, I feel tremendous fear what I'm teaching is truth or not. I feel completely insured. But when I see 10 thousands people following me, I feel a little secured. All ten thousands can't be fools.' Please understand, I'm telling the truth. He told me these very words. 'The insecurity, Swamiji, but when I see ten thousands people following me, I'm able to convince ten thousands people, I can be fool, but not all ten thousands can be fools'. I was shocked. But understand, this is the truth. 6.40 Teachings are given, either to convince you that the teacher is a great person, or to convince himself what he is teaching is something great. Only then teachings are given. If there's no need for convincing, only techniques are given. Here Shiva doesn't have any need, he does not have to convince Uma, he does not have to convince Devi. He is straight away giving the technique. And let you be very clear, never learn from a person who have to convince about his authority to you, then he will be talking too many big things which neither you will understand nor himself understand, because he's on a big job of convincing you, that is why. 7.34 There's a beautiful story, one more story. One great Kashmir Shaivist Pandit, actually this book is from Kashmir Shaivism, I can say the only living religion or the only living tradition which carries the light of Shaiva, the light of Shaivism, the light of Shiva till today. The Kashmir Shaivist Pandit went to the King and said, 'King, I want to teach you the Shiva Sutras, and I want to initiate you.' King said, 'I don't feel like having it. First you read. And then come to me.' he said, 'I've read the last 12 years. I've mastered it completely.' King again said, 'No, go back and read, then come.' After six months, Pandit again came, 'Now I want to teach you. Now I've read everything'. King said, 'No, go back, read a little more, then come.' After 6 months, again Pandit came. King said, 'No, go back and practice, then come.' Pandit is shocked. He starts thinking, 'somewhere I'm missing'. He went and started practicing. After 6 months, he did not come back to the King. He was sitting at his place blissfully. Then King said, 'please go and find out what is going on with Pandit.' All the servants came to Pandit and said, 'Sir, you are not coming to the palace to teach.' Pandit said, 'No, I'm not interested. No, I don't feel like.' King said, 'Yes. Now I can go and learn from him. Now he is right. I can learn from him.' No Pandit does not have any need to convince the King about his greatness. If there's a need to convince the disciple, if there's a need to convince the student, be very clear, truth can not be expressed 100%. If already the bridge, trust has happened, then sharing the truth is possible. 10.32 I always tell people, do not think, to doubt you need intelligence. To doubt, you do not need intelligence, just intellect is enough. Yesterday one devotee was asking, 'What is this Swamiji? You always encourage people doubting and questioning, but you suddenly change the whole trend, yesterday you start telling only fools doubt, only fools question?' See, doubting, questioning is good to learn, but not to experience. If you just want to learn, you want more and more words, if you want teachings, doubting is beautiful, questioning is beautiful. But when it comes to techniques, doubting or questioning is not going to help. Straight away if you want the experience, only the trust can help you. I always tell people, when intellect is ripe, it becomes intelligence; when emotion ripes, it becomes trust; when your being ripes, it becomes enlightenment. When your intellect reaches its peak, you become intelligent. If your emotion reaches its peak, it becomes trust. If your being reaches its peak, it becomes enlightenment. To doubt, you don't need intelligence, just intellect is enough. You can doubt anything. And the more you doubt, the more you question people will start respecting you. This is the truth. If you just want to show yourself as a great person, simply start doubting everybody. A beautiful technique, start criticizing everybody, start doubting everybody, start questioning everybody, you will become a great Pandit. People will start respecting you. Here, no teachings, straight away enters into the technique. He is not even saying 'Now I'm starting meditation techniques', even that much is not saying. Straight to the technique. He says, start doing it. No introduction. No teachings.
