In Hinduism

Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)

[«previous next»] — Antarvartin in Shaivism glossary
Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (philosophy)

Antarvartin (अन्तर्वर्तिन्) refers to “that which is located inside (the house)”, according to the Vṛtti on the Īśvarapratyabhijñāvivṛtivimarśinī 2.165.—Accordingly, “In ‘To this [objection we] reply …,’ [Utpaladeva] answers [the objection] with [the following] in mind. The externality of the pot is not thus one [and the same whether it is considered] with respect to the village or with respect to consciousness; for that which is external to consciousness consists in that which is not consciousness, whereas that which is external to the house does not consist in that which is not a house! For if that were the case, a particular element of the house—such as a wall—or a pot, for example, although it is located inside the house (gṛha-antarvartin), should be external to the house [since they are not the house itself]; and it is not so.
