Notes:
Ṛṣi Kaśyapa ##R^iShi kashyapa## delivers Upadeśa ##upadesha## (to Pataṅga ##pata~Nga##) about the Essence i.e. Tattva of ŚivaPañcākṣhara ##shivapa~nchAkSharatattva##, whereby he introduces the mapping of the five faces (functional aspects) of Śiva ##shiva## to the five syllables of the ŚivaPañcākṣharaMantra ##shivapa~nchAkShara mantra## i.e. Namaḥ Śivāya ##namaH shivAya## as follows:
Na ##na## : Sadyojāta ##sadyojAta##
Ma ##ma## : Vāmadeva ##vAmadeva##
Śi ##shi## : Aghora ##aghora##
Va ##va## : Tatpuruṣa ##tatpuruSha##
Ya ##ya## : Sarvāṅga ##sarvA~Nga##
He elaborates that in the Śruti-s ##shrutiH##, Śiva ##shiva## is bespoken as ŚadāŚiva ##sadAshiva##; as Īśāna ##IshAna##, He is the Lord of All Knowledge and Beings; Brahma ##brahma## is indeed Śambhu ##shambhu## and Śiva ##shiva## is Brahmaṇo'dhipati ## brahmaNo.adhipati##.
Ṛṣi Kaśyapa ##R^iShi kashyapa## also explains about Gāyatrī Mantra ##gAyatrI mantra## that includes the word Bhargaḥ ##bhargaH##, which indeed is a (manifest) \``form'' of Śiva ##shiva##; and that Mahādeva Maheśvara ##mahAdeva maheshvara## is the Devatā ##devatA## of both ŚivaPañcākṣhara ##shivapa~nchAkShara## and Gāyatrī ##gAyatrI##.
When ŚivaPañcākṣhara ##shivapa~nchAkShara## (that is the Mahāmantra ##mahAmantra## for the unliberated), is recited with Tāra ##tAra## i.e. Om̐  ##oM##, is known as the ŚivaṢaḍakṣaraMantra ##shivaShaDakSharamantra## i.e. Om̐  Namaḥ Śivāya ##oM namaH shivAya##. While Tāra ##tAra## i.e. Om̐  ##oM## is Nirguṇa ##nirguNa##, the Pañcavarṇa ##pa~nchavarNa## are Saguṇa ##saguNa##; and, the combination of these Reflect ŚivaRūpa ##shivarUpa##; and one who meditates upon that, experiences the (State of) Nirguṇa Śiva ##nirguNa shiva##.##
