It is in verse form written in Malayalam. Thus this treatise is named as Puṭayūrbhāṣā. The period of this text is regarded as 1345 AD. The text consists of twelve paṭalas. [...] The third paṭala deals with bījāṅkuraṇavidhi. [...] Even though the text gives various names of deities and their worshipping mantras, Śiva is seen given importance.
Shaiva (शैव, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
