Anacka-(also Anachkam) - Unstruck Sound

nādabindumayaṃ vāpi kiṃ candrārdhanirodhikāḥ |
cakrārūḍham anackaṃ vā kiṃ vā śaktisvarūpakam || 4 ||

Mark Dyczkowski: A pure consonant without any vowel sound and hence unutterable
Swami Lakshmanjoo and John Hughes transliterate it as anackam
Swami Satyasangananda Saraswati as anachkam
Andre Padoux, in Vac, uses anacka

See the interesting discussion between Lakshmanjoo and John Hughes in their Vijnanabhairava, page 5. (available from Universal Shaiva Fellowship). Lakshmanjoo describes anackam as “movement-less wheel of movement” and relates it to spanda and aspanda.

In his encyclopaedic work the Tantraloka 'Light on the Tantras' he describes the various tantras of his day and places at their apex the most extreme of them, the Kula ritual which proposes the use of wine and meat and intercourse with women of the lowest castes.
