Dedīpyamāna (देदीप्यमान) refers to an “intensely radiant state”, according to sources such as the Candrāvalokana and the Anubhavanivedanastotra.—Accordingly, while describing the highest reality through the practice of Śāmbhavī Mudrā: “[...] [The Yogin’s] eyes are half open, his mind steady and his gaze placed at the tip of the nose. Even his moon and sun have dissolved and his body is motionless. He goes to that supreme intensely radiant state (dedīpyamāna), the highest reality, which has the appearance of light and is devoid of everything external. What could be spoken of here that is greater [than this]?”.
