CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION
This work is a description and explanation in fuller detail of the Serpent Power (Kundali-sakti), and the Yoga effected through it, a subject occupying a pre-eminent place in the Tantra-Sastra. It consists of a translation of two Sanskrit works published some years ago in the second volume of my series of Tantrik texts, but hither to untranslated. The first, entitled "Satcakra-nirupana" ("Description of and investigation into the six bodily centres"), has as its author the celebrated Tantrik Purnananda-Svami, a short note on whose life is given later. It forms the sixth chapter of his extensive and unpublished work on Tantrik ritual entitled "Sri-tattvacintamani."
