  • Das Sanskrit-Wort Swayambhu (स्वयम्भू) ist aus den Teilen svayam (स्वयम् = „selbst“) und bhu (भू = „geboren“ oder „entstanden“) zusammengesetzt und bedeutet soviel wie „aus sich selbst heraus erschaffen“.

For example, the jyotirlingas are considered swayambhu- the idol of Venkateshwara at Tirumala and some other ones are considered Swayambu- which means they are not installed by any person but they exist on their own. The word Swayambhu is also applicable to Gods- for example- Vishnu is described as swayambhu in Ramayana and Matsya purana.As per the Vedas, Shiva is considered swayambhu. (en)
  • Сваямбху (санскр. स्वयम्भू) — метафизический и философский термин в индуизме со значением «спонтанно самопорождённый» или «самосущее существо». Сваям значит — «сам», «себя», а бху означает «сотворённый». В вариантах используется в тантрическом буддизме. (ru)
  • 自生者(梵語:स्वयम्भू IAST:Swayambhu) 是一个梵语词,意为“自我出现”, “自我存在”或“由自己创造”。自生者(Svayam-bhu)的词源是“Svayam”(स्वयम्),意思是“自己”或“独自”,而“bhu”(स्वयम्)意思是“出生”或“产生”。 通常,自生者这个词被用来描述一个自我诞生的神祇形象,祂不是由任何人创造的,而是自然出现或自然出生的。根据《摩蹉往世书》、《罗摩衍那》和《摩诃婆罗多》,毗湿奴被称为自生者。每一部吠陀中,湿婆都被称为自生者。梵天在吠陀中也被称为“自生者”,自我诞生于毗湿奴臍上莲花,而非毗湿奴创造。《群主奥义书》将象头神描述为自生者且至高无上。 这个词同时适用于有形和无形的神或神迹,例如:究提林迦、蒂鲁马拉范卡德瓦拉庙的神等都被称为自生者。 《大乘庄严宝王经》别本记载,本初佛为自生者。 (zh)
