Lakṣalakṣaṇa (लक्षलक्षण) refers to the “characterizing feature”, according to the Śrīmatottara-tantra, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “[...] Thus, it is beyond Form (rūpa) and Part (pada) and its sphere (of existence) is beyond the beyond. It is not an object of meditation. It is not involved in concentration, meditation or Yoga. There is no exhalation, no inhalation or retention of the breath. It is free of in-breathing and out-breathing and it has no form or characterizing feature [i.e., lakṣalakṣaṇa-varjita]. It resides in the teacher's lotus mouth -it cannot be obtained otherwise (except from there)”.
