Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (philosophy)

Kramika (क्रमिक) refers to “successive (phenomena)”, according to the Vṛtti on the Īśvarapratyabhijñāvivṛtivimarśinī 2.165.—Accordingly, “[...] And this [generality of externality] is established in the [mere] experience: ‘[this is] external to the house.’ And as a consequence, [something] may be established to be external to consciousness as well and to project [its specific form onto consciousness], just as [something is external] to a mirror [and projects its specific form onto the mirror, and it may be established to be so] on the basis of the [logical] reason that is the variety of successive phenomena (kramika-ābhāsa-vaicitrya) [experienced by any conscious being]”.
