Book Description
Introduction

Agama originally signified the word of authority, authenticity. An applied Tantra, ultimately becomes a source of knowledge to attain the means of abhyudaya worldly prospect and Nisreyas the Bliss which is transcendent Agacchanti budhimarohayanti yasmat abhyudaya nisreyasopāyāh. In Indian tradition the words Nigama and Agama primarily denote Jñana-Sakti the knowledge and Kriyā Sakti, the act, technique to manifest the dual aspect of the one and the same Sakti the power entirely prevails in the universe. Mimamsa the oldest philosophical system of Tantra identifies two purposes of yajña, the vedic tantrika anusthāna to attain and expand ones own inner potential. It unites the cosmic force and pays respect. Further is shows gratitutde to the cosmic order that constantly supplies light and life-force to living beings. It is through ritual that the human beings express reverence and gratitude to the cosmic order that control this universe and maintain its peace and harmony. Mīmāṁsā also holds that the anusthana act is identical with bhāvanā by which a mantra converts into a deity devata and devata is respresented by mantra. Both devata and mantra operate on a principle similar to the conversion of energy into matter and matter into energy in physics. Archetype of devata deity both are essentially synonymous in usage and the tantra is basically the technique to realize the cosmic order and law of its synonymity and interchange.

Etymologically the word tantra derived from the root tan or tanri may mean any kind of elaboration for the meaningful knowledge.
