About this Manuscript

Matrika-nyasais the installation of the Divine Mothers.Tantric works like Tantrarāja and Kulacūḍāmaṇi discuss the worship of Matrikas as Shaktis or lGarland of letters . A process of this worship is described in Devi Gita,a part of Devi Bhagavata Purana [Bhāgavatapurāṇa]. It involves installation of powers of Matrikas as Garland of letters in one's body by feeling the deity worshipped in different parts of the body. The Hrillekha-matrika-nyasa, a more specialized form of Matrika-nyasa, combines the installation of most powerful set of all letters (Matrikas) with the seed syllable Hrīṃ of Goddess Bhuvaneshvari.
