SAKTA UPANISAD-S, THE-TRANSLATION

Adyar Library Series 89 - Upanisad

The present work contains English translations of eight Sakta Upanisad-s with notes, mainly based on the Advaitic commentary of Upanisad-Brahmayogin, following the daksinacara or samayacara approach, and ignoring the non-Vedic vama-marga. The typical Sakta elements such as the Srividya-mantra, the concept of the cakras (mystic centres) and the worship of the mystic diagram Sricakra have been given due recognition.

The Eight Upanisad-s are;

1. Tripuratapini Upanisad, 2. Tripura Upanisad 3. Sarasvatirahasyopanisad 4.Saubhagyalaksmi Upanisad, 5. Bhavanopanisad, 6. Bahvrcopanisad, 7.Devi Upanisad  8. Sita-Upanisad
