In plain words
In the body, the withdrawal of the kalās. And so, to still it: The body is gross, subtle and supreme: made of the great elements, in the form of the puryaṣṭaka, and reaching up to samanā. The kalās there, that is, its parts, in the form of the tattvas from earth up to Śiva: their withdrawal, either by contemplating their dissolution in their own cause or by the method of thinking of them as burned and so on, is to be meditated on: these words are to be supplied. As the Vijñānabhairava says: "Let him think of the whole, step by step, in the form of the path of the worlds and the rest, in its gross, subtle and supreme states, until at the end the mind dissolves." And again: "Let him think of his own city burned by the fire of time rising from the place of time; at the end the appearance of peace is born." Teachings of this kind are found in all the scriptures. That is why it is meditation and the rest that the Pūrva scripture calls āṇava: "The absorption that arises through utterance, the instruments, meditation, the letters and the forming of places is rightly called āṇava." Because this is gross, it is not gathered up in the Spanda teaching, which is made of the light of the śākta upāya. But whatever śākta and the rest is here by way of its culmination, that we have cited in agreement from the Spanda book here too, and something more will yet be cited.
