Emission / Creation (Sṛṣṭi)
The pouring-forth — when a world, or just a thought, flows out of consciousness into appearance.
Sṛṣṭi is the act of bringing forth — the moment a world, or even a single experience, flows out of consciousness into appearance. In the Trika picture this is not a craftsman shaping inert matter from outside but awareness spontaneously expressing itself, the way a feeling rises or an image springs to mind. On the personal scale, every fresh perception or thought is a small sṛṣṭi, a flowing-forth of experience from the perceiver's own depths.
