520 |a In a much-discussed passage of the Kāraṇḍavyūhasūtra it is taught that Avalokitesvara produced Mahesvara from his forehead. Mahesvara is introduced as a representative of the degenerative Kali age. In this connection, the Kāra??avyūha quotes a doctrinal verse about the worship of the liṅga, which for a long time has been mistakenly attributed to ‘the Skandapurāṇa', but whose source can now be identified in the Sivadharmasāstra. After a comparative discussion of this verse in both texts, the article considers the possible broader implications of this quotation, in particular in relation to the question of the origin of the six-syllabled mantra oṃ maṇipadme hūṃ and its Saiva counterpart oṃ namaḥ sivāya. The article concludes with some observations on distinctive features that characterise Saiva versus Vaiṣ?ava interactions with Buddhism.
