Description
Dīkṣāyā Cacā is a collection of fourteen caryāgīti songs performed within esoteric Vajrayāna ritual contexts as described in the Āgamas. The manuscript preserves a structured liturgical repertoire in which musical elements such as tāla (rhythm) and rāga are explicitly indicated alongside the verses.
Folios 002–008 contain eight caryāgīti songs, while folios 010–015 preserve an additional seven songs, together forming a set of fourteen compositions. These songs are thematically associated with Vajrayāna philosophical and meditative frameworks and are linked to the visualization and invocation of deities such as Hevajra, Cakrasaṃvara, and Vajravārāhī.
The compositions are performed with ritual reverence in restricted esoteric settings accessible only to initiated practitioners. Composed in Sanskrit, the verses employ symbolic and metaphorical language to express core Vajrayāna doctrinal ideas.
