Visargodīrita (विसर्गोदीरित) means “having been intensified with emission”, according to the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “[...] Once the Self, both manifest and unmanifest, has been aroused by that, this Śāmbhava (state) of subtle being is confined by it. [...] In order to flood it (completely), the three have been intensified with 4) Emission [i.e., visargodīrita]. The Sun has risen there. He is the lord of the letters. The Lord of the Universe is in the form of a (dimensionless) Point beyond action, time, and the qualities (of Nature). He, radiant with energy, shines intensely and emanates the letters. This fourfold energy (catuṣkala) of the quaternary beginning with the Transmental has arisen (thus). It is disturbed by (this) Krama Yoga and is the pure Śāmbhava body which has sixteen divisions (formed) by (each) group of four individually”.
