The Kali Yantra

Sadashiva is without free energy (lifeless) when Mahakali is manifest. He besides is like a corpse when in union with Shakti. Conspicuously, without Shakti, the primordial god is lifeless and cannot act – Todala Tantra, I

The Dakshinakali yantra, pictured left, conforms to the full general pattern of all Shakti yantras but has its own particular class. In the eye is a group of five triangles. Each betoken represents one of the fifteen Kali Nityas or eternities, one for each day of the waning Moon. In the eight petals are eight Bhairavas and viii Bhairavis, coupling together. Yantras which are non inscribed with bija mantras and the matrikas are unsuitable for worship, every bit are those which are created past an uninitiated person, those which do not have life installed (run into below). Mantras, meanwhile, are useless even if one is initiated, unless purashcarana, a preparatory rite, is performed.

Bhairava means terrifying, and these couples are particularised aspects of Dakshina Kalika, conforming to the eight tantrik directions. This is too the Kaula circle where males and females congregate on one of the dark days of the Moon to perform their uncanny rites. Each subsidiary Kali Nitya has her own yantra and mantra conforming to the nature of each of the days of the dark fortnight of the Moon.

Every tantrik deity has her or his daily puja which a devotee performs and the blueprint for these sadhanas are all very like. After first clearing and purifying a infinite, a yantra is drawn, and the sadhaka and then performs nyasa, afterward meditating on the Devi in her or his own heart and taking her, through the vital breath, to dwell in the centre of the yantra. Earlier using a yantra for this purpose, life and breath take to be installed. This rite (pranapratishta – installation of prana) uses the matrikas and gives the yantra the 36 tantrik tattvas. Yantras, also, have a definite life span, depending on the material. Gold, for example, lasts for life, silver for vii years, &c.

The paradigm of Dakshina Kalika is awesome. She has a fanged mouth, looks terrifying, has dishevelled hair, has four artillery and is adorned with a necklace of man skulls. She holds a newly severed caput and a swords, her other easily shows the mudras which dispell fearfulness and grant boons. She is the colour of a thundercloud, dusky, and is completely naked (digambara, clothed in space). Claret trickles from the sides of her rima oris, and her earrings are two corpses of young boys. She has rising, large swelling breasts, and is seated in intercourse on the body of a corpse. She laughs loudly. The corpse is Mahadeva Shiva in his grade of Mahakala and the whole scene is within the cremation ground.

Once installed in her form – and this tin can be a yantra, a statue, a bloom, a book and various other sacred items – Devi is treated every bit beingness actually present, and the good offers her various expert things, food, perfume, drink, incense, and a whole host of other ritual accessories. There are 5, or sixteen or sixty 4 upachara (ritual accessories – run into the abstract of the Gandharva Tantra for details). These upacharas can exist either external or internal. The true flowers, according to the tradition, are flowers such as compassion, forgiveness, kindness and the like. The attendants of the Devi are then worshipped, and offerings given to them too.

At this phase, the initiate can then perform various other rites, finally winding up by again taking the Devi into her or his middle, wiping out the yantra, and closing the rite. Things do not have to take such a formal shape, however. Devi describes a continual method of worship in the Kulachudamani Tantra.

"Beloved son, my underground originates in simple practice. Those lacking this practise non obtain success even in 1 hundred koti of births. Folk following the path of Kula and the Kulashastras are broad minded, from following the path of Vishnu, patient of insult, and always doing expert to others.

"One should get to the temple of a deva, or to a deserted identify, free of people, an empty place, to a crossroads or to an island. At that place, i should recite the mantra and, having bowed, become one with divinity and free from sorrow.

"Bow to Mahakali if y'all see a vulture, a she-jackal, a raven, an osprey, a hawk, a crow or a blackness true cat, saying: "O Origin of all, greatly terrifying one, with dishevelled hair, fond of flesh offer, charming one of Kulachara, I bow to yous, Shankara's beloved!

"If y'all should meet a cremation ground or a corpse, circumambulate. Bowing to them, and reciting a mantra, a mantrin becomes happy: 'O yous with terrible fangs, cruel eyed i, roaring like a raging sow! Destroyer of life! O mother of sweet and terrifying sound, I bow to you, dweller in the cremation ground.'

"If you should see a carmine flower or reddish dress – the essence of Tripura – prostrate yourself similar a stick on the ground and recite the following mantra: 'Tripura, destroyer of fear, coloured red every bit a bandhuka blossom! Supremely beautiful one, hail to you, giver of boons.'

"If you should meet a dark blue bloom, a king, a prince, elephant, horse, chariot, swords, blossoms, a vira, a buffalo, a Kuladeva, or an epitome of Mahishamardini – bow to Jayadurga to get free of obstacles. Say: 'Jaya Devi! Support of the universe! Mother Tripura! Triple divinity!'

"If you should see a wine jar, fish, meat or a beautiful woman, bow to Bhairavi Devi, saying this mantra: 'O destructress of terrifying obstacles! Grace giver of the path of Kula! I bow to you, boon giver adorned with a garland of skulls! O crimson clothed one! One praised past all! All obstruction destroying Devi! I bow to you, the dear of Hara.'

"Honey son, if a person sees this things without bowing, the Shakti mantra does non give success.

"I am the essence of this, dear of the Kula folk. All the Dakinis are my parts. Listen Bhairava! One who has gained success in my simple yoga cannot be harmed by a Dakini. My devotees grow in wealth and cannot be conquered by Vatukas or Bhairavas.

"Whichever Kaula is seen by a young daughter or woman, whether he be in hamlet, urban center, festival, or at the crossroads, causes her to exist filled with longing, her center aching, her optics darting glances, like a line of bees mad for honey falls on a lotus flower, greedy for nectar, like a female partridge for a cloud, similar a cow for her recently born calf, like a female gazelle eager for young shoots of grass, like jackals for mankind, like a person tortured past thirst who sees water, similar a dvamsi (?) at the sight of a lotus fibre, or like an pismire greedy for honey.

"The sight of such a Kaula, enveloped by the Kulas, causes her lower garment to slip, she becomes mad with animalism, and of unsteady appearance. Seeing her on a couch, her breasts and vagina exposed, i should fall to her feet, and, rising, fall once again.

"One should impart the oral lore to an alluring female companion – in her feet resides the clandestine of the deed of honey. One attracts such female companions, with beautiful hips and beautiful breasts, like a moon to the Kaula, free from greed or modesty, devoted, patient of center, sensuous, very inner of spirit.

"In such a happy Duti, curiosity may all of a sudden arise, she asking 'Dear son, what is to be done or not to be done? Speak!' One should perform sacrifice to the indwelling Maya and offer the remainder to the Shakti. Subsequently this, one should excite her then perform the act of dear.

"On a Tuesday, in the cremation ground, smeared with Kula vermilion, using Kula woods, one should draw a yantra. In the petals write the Camunda Mantra, 'Sphrem Sphrem Kiti Kiti' twice, and then the ninefold mantra of Mahishamardini. Outside this, write the mantras of Jayadurga and Shmashana Bhairavi. After writing them, worship Bhadrakali at dark, meditating on Kamakhya, the essence of Kamakala.

"The Kulakaulika, naked, with dishevelled hair, should meditate on the formidable Kali, with her terrifying fangs and appearance, Digambari, with her garlands of human arms, seated on a corpse in Virasana, in sexual union with Mahakala, her ears adorned with os ornaments, blood trickling from her mouth, roaring terrifyingly, wearing a garland of skulls, her large and swelling breasts smeared with blood, intoxicated with wine, trembling, holding in her left paw a sword, and in her right manus a human skull, dispelling fright and granting boons, her face terrifying, her natural language rolling wildly, her left ear adorned with a raven'due south feather, her jackal servants roaring loudly like the end of time, she herself laughing terribly and pitilessly, surrounded by hordes of fearsome Bhairavas, treading on homo skeletons, wholly occupied with the sounds of victorious boxing, the supreme i, served by numberless hosts of powerful demons.

"Later meditating on Kalika, the lord of Kula should then worship her. Unless one enters the other city, Kulasiddhi cannot be achieved. Considering this Devi gives all success as before long every bit she is remembered, she is hymned in the three worlds as Dakshina.

"O Bhairava, by reciting her mantra 108 times, 1 can attain any object is wished for. After establishing oneself at the crossroads and meditating on the Devi in your heart, one should enter the city adorned with the most beautiful sorts of jewels. After meditating on Devi in the four directions, bow to the Kulaguru and, holding the name of the object of siddhi in your left hand, pronounce the mantra.

"Smearing the optics with anjana, ane may shatter iron locks barring doors, becoming able to enter either stable, warrior's house, Kalika temple, treasury or sacred place, and may accept sexual union according to will fifty-fifty 100 times. After meditating on Svapnavati Devi, i should enter the pavilion of Kama."

The Kali Tantra gives more details of the puja of Kalika:-

"Now I speak of the ritual injunction which is the all-nectar-giver of the Devi. Doing this, a person becomes like Bhairava.

"Firstly, I speak of yantra, the knowing of which conquers death. At start draw a triangle. Outside, draw another. And so draw 3 more triangles. "Draw a circle and then a beautiful lotus. Then describe another circle and then a bhupura with 4 lines and four doors. This is how the cakra should be drawn.

"Worship the guru line, the six limbs, and the dikpalas (The viii, or according to some, ten guardians of the directions, ed.). Then the mantrin should place his head at the feet of the guru.

"O beloved one, after worshipping the pedestal, set down the offering. Identify the mantra in the six limbs. And then, within the heart lotus, the ultimate Kala blossoms.

"Place her in the center of the yantra by invoking her (via the breath). After meditating on the great goddess, dedicate the ritual offerings. Bow to Mahadevi and and then worship the surrounding deities.

"Worship Kali, Kapalini, Kulla, Kurukulla, Virodhini, Vipracitta in the 6 angles. Then Ugra, Ugraprabha, Dipta in the heart. Then Nila, Ghana and Balaka in the inner angle. Then Matra, Mudra and Mita inside this triangle, and then the very dusky 1 holding the sword, adorned with human being skulls, with her left paw showing the threatening mudra and having a pure grinning.

"Worship the eight mothers Brahmi, Narayani, Maheshvari, Chamunda, Kaumari, Aparajita, Varahi and Narasimhi.

"In equal shares, give these devis animate being sacrifice and worship them, smearing them with olfactory property and offering incense and flame. After doing the puja, worship using the root mantra.

"Requite food and then forth to the Devi again and again. The sadhaka should offering flame ten times. So also he should offering bloom with mantra according to the rules of ritual.

"Afterward meditating on Devi, recite the mantra one,008 times. The fruit of reciting, which is light, place in the hands of the Devi.

"Then, placing the flower on the head, do prostration. With supreme devotion, so rub out (the yantra)."
