: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram骋丑补峁璦尘耻诲谤腻 (啶樴啶啶︵啶班ぞ) (or Khecar墨尘耻诲谤腻) is the name of the gesture (尘耻诲谤腻) associated with O岣嶀笉iy膩na, one of the sacred seats (辫墨峁环补), according to the Manth膩nabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjik膩.鈥擭ote: Although not all the mantras uttered in the course of a ritual are accompanied by a corresponding gesture, many are, and so are commonly formed (baddha lit. 鈥榖ound鈥�) in quick succession. In this context, the gestures [i.e., 驳丑补峁璦] are, like the other constituents of the seats, channels through which the deity's energy flows and operates. The goddess, as pure spiritual energy, is herself Mudr膩鈥擥esture.
Shakta (啶多ぞ啶曕啶�, 艣膩kta) or Shaktism (艣膩ktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
