ṃh󾱱貹 (सिंहासनाधि�) refers to the “kings of the thrones�, according to the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā, which is an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—The Goddess blesses the resident goddess (i.e., Yoginī) and Siddha to have sons and daughters who, produced at her instigation, are considered to be her “mind-born� progeny. [...] The Kubjikāmatatantra says that the sons are “kings of the thrones� (ṃhԲ󾱱貹ṃh󾱱貹?) just as the daughters are said to be “queens�. According to the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā these thrones are the parts of the body onto which the energies of the letters of the Mālinī alphabet are projected.
