Saktisangama Tantra: Vol III & IV (Bound in One)

I have great pleasure in presenting before the world of scholars and seekers the second edition (Vol. III - Sundarikhanda & Vo. IV - Chinnamastakhanda) of the Saktisangama Tantra which deals with the whole field of tantric culture of different schools.

The Saktisangama Tantra, edited by Dr. Benoytosh Bhattacharyya (1897-1964), the first Director of the Oriental Institute was published under the Gaekwad’s Oriental Series in four volumes.

Vol I - Kalikhanda- GOS No. 61 Pub in 1932
Vol. II - Tarakhanda - GOS No. 91 Pub in 1941
Vol. III - Sundarikhanda - GOS No. 104 Pub in 1947
Vo. IV - Chinnamastakhanda - GOS No.166. Pub in 1978

Due to untimed death of Dr. Bhattacharyya, he could not complete the fourth volume and a detailed introduction he had promised to present after the completion of the entire work was wanting. The work then entrusted to Pt. Vrajavallabha Dwivedi, the then professor of Yoga and Tantra, Sampurnanada Sanskrit University, Varanasi. Prof. Dwivedi’s erudite Introduction in Sanskrit of the work is appreciated worldwide.
