Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (shaktism)Adbhutaśakti (अद्भुतशक्ति) refers to “(abundant) miraculous power”, according to the King Vatsarāja’s Pūjāstuti called the Kāmasiddhistuti (also Vāmakeśvarīstuti), guiding one through the worship of the Goddess Nityā.—Accordingly, “[...] May the three-eyed goddess Bhagamālinī give the glory of good fortune. She possesses abundant miraculous power (adbhutaśakti—adbhutabhūriśaktiḥ) and is as lovely as the moon. She is stationed in the left corner [of the central triangle] and holds in the row of her arms a snare, a goad, a sugarcane, ropes, a book, and a sword. [...]”.
