The fty rudra-s

kalashajA had asked me the list of the rudra-s and their shakti-s associated with the smArta shabdarAshI maNDala. Each rudra is worshiped with their particular mantra during the installation of the shabdamaNDala of equilateral triangles and then the yantra is turned around and the shakti-s are invoked. Then it is placed back in the rudra conguration and worshiped as the whole shabdarAshI. The common smArta system of nomenclature goes as appended below, and is seen in two nearly congruent to the lists provided by the prapa~nchasAra and shArada-tilaka (2.29-35) tantra-s. The rudra-s are meditated as having two hands respectively with a trident and skull. Their shakti-s are mediated as having two hands bearing a red lotus and skull in each. They are both conceived as being the color of scarlet lead (Pb3O4). The 50/51 rudra-s (and their shakti-s) of the trika system are mentioned in the mAlinI-vijaya 3.13 beginning with shrIkaNTha as a part of the mAlinI-gahvara in the na->pha conguration. The 50/51 rudra-s/shakti-s of the pashchimAmnAya (kubjikA) tantras are similar and are mentioned in the kubjikAmata tantra (24.1-57; kulAlikAmnAya version). Similar lists of the kubjikA tradition are also mentioned in the agni purANa 145 and 293. These are in relationship to the tadgraha structure of the pashchimAmnAya, which is homologous to the mAlinI-gahvara. The rudra-s in the lists of trika and pashchimAmnAya, while closely resembling the smArta list, are arranged in prayoga to suit the mAlinI order. The associated shakti-s however differ considerably vis--vis the smArta equivalent (the pashchimAnAya list is appended after the smArta list. As shrIkaNTha is the rst rudra of these lists the nyAsa-s in these traditions which place the rudra-s on various organs are called shrIkaNThAdi nyAsa. The saiddhAntika system of 50 rudra-s is provided by the makuTAgama, charyApAda 6.14-20. This saiddhAntika list while having most of the names seen in the above systems is different in its order to correspond with the gahvara of this srotas. Kasmirian tradition records another list that appears to be associated with amR^iteshvara or tryambaka rudra of the netra-tantrait has names that are very different and have been appended after the pashchimAMnAya list. 1 shrIkaNTha = pUrNodarI 2 ananta = virajA 3 sUkShma = shAlmalI 4 trimUrti = lolAkShI 5 amareshvara = vArtulAkShI 6 arghIsha = dIrgaghoNa 7 bhAvabhUti (bhArabhUti) = sudIrghamukhI 1 of 85 tithi = gomukhI
