Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)

Source: Shodhganga: Iconographical representations of Śiva

Kalātyaya (कलात्यय) or Kalātyayāgama refers to one of upāgamas (supplementary scriptures) of the Bimbāgama which is one of the twenty-eight Siddhāntāgama: a classification of the Śaiva division of Śaivāgamas. The Śaivāgamas represent the wisdom that has come down from lord Śiva, received by Pārvatī and accepted by Viṣṇu. The purpose of revealing upāgamas (e.g., Kalātyaya Āgama) is to explain more elaborately than that of mūlāgamas (e.g., Bimba-āgama) and to include any new idea if not dealt in mūlāgamas.

Kālātyaya (कालात्यय) refers to a “delay (in casting off feathers)” (of a hawk), according to the Śyainika-śāstra: a Sanskrit treatise dealing with the divisions and benefits of Hunting and Hawking, written by Rājā Rudradeva (or Candradeva) in possibly the 13th century.—Accordingly, [while discussing the treatment of hawks]: “[...] If there is any delay (kālātyaya) in casting off feathers some think that the flesh of a lizard hastens the casting of feathers. The Mleccha nations administer a black substance within the meat of cows and buffaloes, but this is not proper owing to the repulsive nature of the thing and from the fact that it lessens the hawk’s swiftness. [...]”.
