Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramKhaśakti (खशक्ति) refers to the “power of the void”, 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, “The Circle of the Point in the centre of the maṇḍala, churned by its innate energy, which the texts call passion (kāma, madana) or the power of the Void (khaśakti), splits up to form the six parts [Cf. Ṣaṭprakārā, Ṣaṭka] of the Krama. This too, like the Point and the Triangle, is said to be the Liṅga”.
