The 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 is an important text of the Kaula Tradition which seems to have not been published before.

This research project consists of two parts: the first comprises an introduction to the literature and philosophy of the 艢腻办迟补 Tradition in order to place the 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 within the larger context of T膩ntrik Literature; an extensive exposition of the contents of the 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 manuscripts which we collected; and a study on the two available manuscripts, necessary to comprehend the methodology adopted in the critical edition. The second part consists of the critical edition of fifteen chapters of the 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补, which constitutes the core of this research.

First Part: Introduction to the 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra and a study

Two introductions to the 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 have been presented, one in Sanskrit and the other in English: [...]

The 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 is considered to be one of the sixty-four non-dual Tantras and is often quoted in T膩ntrik compendia and manuals composed by illustrious 辫补峁囜笉颈迟蝉. There are four different texts which we managed to examine bearing the title 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补: the first of these (痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra), upon which the present work is based, is a text belonging to the Kaula tradition (痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra 3.7). The second (痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra), consisting of fifty chapters and 2545 verses, was revealed in the form of a dialogue between 痴补谤腻丑补 and 痴腻谤腻丑墨. The third text is in the form of a dialogue between 艢r墨 K峁涐梗峁嘺 and 搁腻诲丑颈办腻. The fourth (VVK), also called the 痴补箩谤补惫腻谤腻丑墨办补濒辫补, is a Bauddha Tantra.

The present research is based upon the 碍耻濒腻驳补尘补 "痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补" (痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra), of which we edited the first fifteen chapters; for the critical edition we consulted two main manuscripts: one belongs to the Kaiser Library of the Government of Nepal (Kathmandu) and the other is preserved in the 厂补谤补蝉惫补迟墨 Library of Samp奴r峁嚹乶anda Sanskrit University (痴补谤腻峁嘺蝉墨).

艢腻办迟补 Tantra鈥�

The 艢腻办迟补 Tantras are doctrines where the Supreme, who is immanent and transcendental at the same time, is conceived of as the Mother Goddess. Throughout all the various philosophical systems and doctrines, the Goddess is worshipped as the one and multiform Supreme Reality; nevertheless it is in the non-dual Saiva, 艢腻办迟补 and in particular the Kaula doctrines that the non-dual view and the 艢腻办迟补 way of worship have a special position. Among all the 艢补颈惫补 and 艢腻办迟补 膧gamas the 碍耻濒补艣腻蝉迟谤补蝉 are said to reveal the most secret path.

The 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra鈥�

The 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra (lit. the "Doctrine of the Boar-Goddess") on which is based this research (i.e., the 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra) is a 艢腻办迟补 Tantra and it is found in various lists of the sixty-four Bhairava Tantras, such as in the 厂补谤惫辞濒濒腻蝉补, 碍补耻濒腻惫补濒墨, 惭补丑腻蝉颈诲诲丑补蝉腻谤补迟补苍迟谤补, 狈颈迟测补峁�o岣峚艣颈办腻谤峁嘺惫补迟补苍迟谤补 and the 碍耻濒补肠奴岣嵞乵补峁噄迟补苍迟谤补. The 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra, consisting of 2545 verses, refers to a 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 of 6303 verses, which is approximately the same number of verses as in the 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra manuscript that we used. In any event, we can neither be assured that the 痴腻谤腻丑墨迟补苍迟谤补 on which this research is based is the same one mentioned in the various lists of sixty-four Bhairava Tantras, nor that these lists actually refer to the same text, since there are at least four Tantras carrying this same name.

The Goddess 痴腻谤腻丑墨鈥�

The Goddess 痴腻谤腻丑墨 is well known in the 艢腻办迟补 as well as in the Bauddha T膩ntrik literatures, where she is worshipped both either as the main Goddess or as part of a group of goddesses, usually numbering seven or eight, called the 惭腻迟峁沰腻蝉. In the 痴腻谤腻丑墨 Tantra she is variously called Svapnav膩r膩h墨, Sundar墨k膩l墨, Vajrav膩r膩h墨 and N墨lav膩r膩h墨. She is also worshipped in the groups of the Eight Mothers, the Sixty-four 驰辞驳颈苍墨蝉, the Six Mistresses of the six Traditions and the Sixteen Mothers.
