Cinmātrarūpa (चिन्मात्ररूप) refers to “assuming the nature of pure consciousness”, according to the Kularatnoddyota, one of the earliest Kubjikā Tantras.—Accordingly: “[...] In this way, all embodied beings will be destroyed up to the Great Age. When the end of the merger of Brahmā, Upendra, and Mahendra comes about, the Siddhas born of the Śrīkula will assume the nature of pure consciousness (cinmātrarūpa). Most excellent in every respect, (these Siddhas) will not be destroyed when the time comes of universal destruction. [...]”.
