Summary
[edit]Description19th century manuscript copy, older Tantra Rajatantra, Schoyen Collection Norway.jpg |
English: Tantra rajatantra means "Tantra that is king of tantras". It is divided into 36 chapters, each with 100 verses. It is dedicated to the goddess Lalita Tripurasundari. The date of Tantrarajatantra's composition is unclear. It must be before 1603 CE, because the commentator Subhagananda published his commentary on it in that year. The text includes mantras, mystical diagrams and a treatise on goddesses.
The above photo is of a manuscript copied on paper in early 19th century, and is now MS 5295 of the Schoyen Collection, near Oslo, Norway. It is written in Sanskrit on paper, Devanagari script. This is a photograph of a two-dimensional manuscript copied in early 19th-century from a much older text. Therefore and PD-Art and PD-US-expired guidelines of wikimedia commons apply. Any rights I have as a photographer, I herewith donate to wikimedia commons under CC 4.0. |
