Parijñāta (परिज्ञात) refers to “that which has been learned”, according to the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “[...] (The four sacred seats) O JĀ PŪ KĀ (correspond to the four elements) from Earth onwards. The Yoni of Space is the fifth. [...]. Once the division of the Peak (syllable) has been learned [i.e., parijñāta], the god Haṃsa should be applied. That man, O lady praised by the heroes, is the destroyer of time (which he does in this) and no other way. There are four syllables for each syllable of the name of (each) seat. The Knots accord with the division (of the syllables of) the seats. (The wise) know that (this is) the arising of the seed-syllable HAṂSA”.
