Digital Ebook (PDF) — Two Complete Tantric Texts: Bhūtaḍāmara Tantram (Sanskrit with Hindi Translation) & Damara Tantra (Nagari Text with English Translation)
Editor / Translator: Ram Kumar Rai (Krishna Kumar Rai) | Prachya Prakashan, Varanasi — Tantra Granthamala Series
Key Features
This special bundle brings together two of the most fascinating and rarely available scriptures of the tantric tradition — the Bhūtaḍāmara Tantram in its Sanskrit original with Hindi translation, and the closely related Damara Tantra in Nagari text with a full English rendering. Both were edited and translated by the noted scholar Ram Kumar Rai and published by Prachya Prakashan of Varanasi in its respected Tantra Granthamala series.
Despite its name, the Bhūtaḍāmara Tantra is far from a mere manual of ghosts and exorcism. In truth, "Bhūta" carries the sense of "the past," and "Ḍāmara" the sense of "fierce" — so that this is understood as a Tantra which liberates the seeker from the fierce burdens of the past, transforming the practitioner's present and future for the better. It is regarded as an authoritative Tantra of Sri Krodha Bhairava, an expansion of the supreme Lord Sri Swacchanda Bhairava, and preserves what many consider a lost link of the Kashmir Shaiva tradition.
The text unfolds as a sacred dialogue between Unmatta Bhairava and Unmatta Bhairavi, revealing across its sixteen chapters (patalas) a vast system of mantra, mandala worship, and sadhana. Its chapters treat the invocation and worship of a host of divine and semi-divine feminine powers — the Sundari, the Pishachini and Chetika, the Ashta-Katyayani, the Bhutini, the Apsara, the Yakshini, the eight Naginis, the Kinnari, and the Yogini — each with their own rites of attainment and protection.
The companion Damara Tantra, presented here with a complete English translation, is prized for its remarkably detailed treatment of the Ṣaṭkarmas — the six tantric acts — with an especially comprehensive exposition of Vashikarana, the science of attraction and subjugation. Opening with a dialogue between Bhairava and Bhairavi, its chapters range across an extraordinary breadth of practical applications: methods of captivation and attraction, formulas for prosperity, remedies and preparations, the warding off of ill-effects of planets and evil spirits, protective rites, and much more — a vivid window into the applied ritual world of classical Tantra.
Together, these two texts form a rare and complementary pair, offering the sincere student both the Sanskrit and Hindi of the Bhūtaḍāmara and the Nagari and English of the Damara — a bridge between the devotional depths of the tradition and its practical ritual science, made accessible to readers across three languages.
