“With regard to Śiva-viśiṣṭādvaita (i.e., Śaiva-Siddhānta), Śri Bhagavān said: ‘Garuḍohaṃ-bhavanā (‘I am Garuḍa’) conception does not make a Garuḍa of a man. All the same, the poisonous effects of snake-bite are cured. Similarly with Śivohaṃ-bhavanā (‘I am Śiva’) conception also. One is not transformed into Śiva, but the ruinous effects of the ego are put an end to. Or the person retains his individuality but remains pure, i.e., fit for constituting a part of the body of Śiva. Becoming so he can enjoy the Supreme Bliss. “That is liberation”, say the Śaiva-Siddhāntis. No. This simply betrays the love of their individuality and is in no way the true experience of liberation.”—Talk 339
