Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)

Source: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram

Bhairavendra (भैरवेन्द्र) refers to “Lord Bhairava”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, “I salute Lord Bhairava [i.e., bhairavendra], the treasury of many kinds of (divine) qualities, the one cause of (all that is) seen and unseen. In the beginning the pure Kramakula came forth from him and there all things dissolve away. All the endless creation, beginning from the cause up to the fire (that burns the worlds), depends on him. He who has authority over all forms and pure, is the greatest of teachers, is the subtle, venerable Kulālīśa”.
