Gau'tamiya Tantra. A Vaishnavite Tantra, comprising, in thirty-
one chapters, a complete system of rituals for the guidance of Vaishnavas,
and the adoration of Krishna in a variety of forms. The work is designed

mysteries and mummeries to the cult of Krishna, and is alway appealed

ordinances. Contents; 1, Ten-syllable mantra of Krishna; 2, Derivation
