Kālī and Tārā Vidyās
विद्यांतकाभिधः पश्चान्नरांतक इमान्यजेत् । शक्रादींश्चैव वज्रादीन्प्रजपेत्तदनंतरम् ॥ १२१ ॥
vidyāṃtakābhidhaḥ paścānnarāṃtaka imānyajet | śakrādīṃścaiva vajrādīnprajapettadanaṃtaram || 121 ||
Pagkaraan, ang tinatawag na Vidyāntaka ang magsagawa ng mga ritong ito; at si Narāntaka naman ay gayundin. Pagkatapos nito, bigkasin sa japa si Indra at ang iba pang mga deva, pati ang Vajra at iba pang banal na sandata, ayon sa wastong pagkakasunod.
Narada (teaching, within a technical/ritual instruction sequence)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: vira
It emphasizes disciplined sequence (krama) in ritual and mantra practice—first completing prescribed acts, then invoking specific deities and their protective powers through japa.
Even in technical rites, devotion is expressed through ordered remembrance and recitation of divine beings and their śaktis (powers), turning ritual precision into focused reverence.
It highlights procedural ritual knowledge—how yajña/archana and prajapa are sequenced—reflecting the Vedāṅga-oriented concern for correct order and accurate recitation.
