tantrī तन्त्री
Usage:
tantryādivādyaśabdeṣu dīrgheṣu kramasaṃsthiteḥ |
ananyacetāḥ pratyante paravyomavapur bhavet ||
Some people find it easier to read if we put in word-boundaries and remove the diacriticals:
tantri adi vadya shabdesu dirghesu krama samsthiteh
ananya chetah pratyante para vyoma vapuh bhavet
Creating an approximate glossary, we see: tantri - musical stringed instruments; adi – begin, also, etcetera; vadya - aloud, to be played or spoken aloud, also, music instrument or instrumental music; shabdeshu - sounds of the instruments; dirghesu - prolonged (continuous), krama – gradually; samsthiteh - is established; ananya - single focus, without deviation; chetah – awareness; pratyante - in the end; para vyoma - the transcendental sky; vapuh - the body, the incarnation; bhavet - becomes.
The text is clearly inviting us to begin by listening to external music, and then follow the impulses to the inner. In Sutra 18 of The Radiance Sutras, “Tend to each note, each chord, rising up from silence and dissolving again. Vibrating strings draw us into the spacious resonance of the heart.”
