Only such a free divine Being who has never known any bondages, can provide the release for the poor samsaric souls. The participation of the Godhead in life of suffering beings looks like a manifestation of a compassion. The divine grace is expressed in sending down of the blessed power (anugraha). Tantric deities paradoxically combine in themselves truly incompatible things, for example, knowledge and illusion. However, the duality of the tantric Deity is rather apparent than real. It is a consequence of the distorted focus of perception and of the unenlightened level of a person. The great soteriological gift bestowed by God, is rarely obtained by an adept without any effort or intent on his (adept’s) part. The spiritual path unfolds as from below, i.e. from a position of the subject, and from above, i.e. from the ultimate Reality.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">Вопрос о духовном освобождении в индуистском тантризме тесно связан с идеей первоисточника всего сущего, т.е. с высшей, абсолютной Реальностью, Божеством. Только такое свободное божественное Существо, которое никогда не знало никаких ограничений, может даровать освобождение для бедных сансарических душ. Участие Божества в жизни страдающих существ выглядит как проявление сострадания. Божественная милость выражается в ниспослании благословенной силы (шактипата, ануграха). Тантрические божества парадоксальным образом соединяют в себе поистине несовместимые вещи, например, знание и иллюзию. Впрочем, двойственность тантрического Божества скорее видимая, чем реальная. Она есть следствие искаженного восприятия и непросветленного уровня того или иного человека. Великий сотериологический дар, ниспосылаемый Божеством, редко обретается адептом без каких-то усилий с его (адепта) стороны. Духовный путь развертывается как снизу, т.е. с позиции субъекта, так и свыше, т.е. со стороны высшей Реальности.</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>liberation</kwd><kwd>soteriology</kwd><kwd>Hindu Tantrism</kwd><kwd>Tantric Deity</kwd><kwd>individual’s dependence and release</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>зависимость и освобождение индивида</kwd><kwd>сотериология</kwd><kwd>индуистский тантризм</kwd><kwd>тантрическое божество</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Abhinavagupta.
