Vyomeśī (व्योमेशी) is associated with the first of the five phases of the Pīṭhakrama, according to the Mahānayaprakāśa verse 2.1-35, while explaining the cycles of the goddesses of consciousness.—Accordingly, “Vyomeśī is the undisturbed (anākulā) repose of all (these forms of) consciousness in the essential nature of the Sacred Seat because (her) nature is unobscured and endless. She resides inwardly in the body as the Pīṭha, which is the Void (śūnya). The unfolding of consciousness up to the organs of action has as its support (āśraya) the insentient (body consisting of the gross elements) starting with Space and ending with Earth (which exists) because of its grounding in that (consciousness). (In this case) the energy of the sacred seat of Space is the (one that functions) externally”.
