Vajravārāhikalpa (Actually Vasudhārā Vrata Kathā)

This text has been incorrectly catalogued by Matsunami as the Vajravārāhīkalpa. In fact, it is a text titled Vasundharā Vrata Kathā and forms part of the Aśvaghoṣa Avadāna. This has been been critically edited by Chhatra Bahadur Kayastha. As the Buddhist goddess of prosperity, Vasudhārā is associated with both material and spiritual abundance.Vasudhārā is also one of the most widely worshipped deities in Newar household shrines, where she is invoked for success in both business and domestic life. Each autumn, she is venerated in a two-day devotional ritual (vrata) known as Gatila or Tila, which involves both individual and communal worship. (Kerry Lucinda Brown, on Vasudhara).
