About The Book

The Manthanabhairavatantra is about 24,000 verses long and is divided into threesections ( khanda ). The one edited and translated here is the Kumarikakhanda .

Along with the Kubjikamata , the Manthanabhairavatantra is the most important andextensive Tantra dedicated to the worship of the goddess Kubjika. Although

originally an Indian goddess, Kubjika is almost exclusively worshipped in theKathmandu Valley, where her cult has been kept scrupulously secret by Newarinitiates for centuries. Almost all the manuscripts of her Tantras and relatedliterature have been found there.Kubjika is a powerful development of Malini, the principal goddess of the TrikaTantras and Kali of the Kashmiri Krama tradition. Her cult belongs to a chain ofearly Kaula systems that culminate with that of the goddess Tripura and so shedsconsiderable light on them. Kubjika's unique historical importance is mirrored in theextraordinary richness of the inner, spiritual dimensions of her cult. These areexplored in detail in the introduction to the edition and translation of the text withextensive references from mostly unpublished Kubjika Tantras and those of relatedschools.The work took close to two decades to produce. In this time numerous workingeditions of unpublished Tantras and related texts were prepared by the author withthe help of a team of five trained assistants.
