Mantrita (मन्त्रित) means “consecrated with mantra”, according to the Śrīmatottara-tantra, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, as Bhairava explains: “[...] By squeezing where the channels that transport the vital breath (are located), (with) the two thumbs consecrated with mantra [i.e., mantrita], it [i.e., parāśakti—the supreme energy] heats up and (then) burns up the cage of sin. The mind attains the transmental state and (the disciple) falls on the ground unconscious”.

Mantrita (मन्त्रित) refers to “having sanctified (food)”, as described in the Kāśyapa Saṃhitā: an ancient Sanskrit text from the Pāñcarātra tradition dealing with both Tantra and Viṣacikitsā—an important topic from Āyurveda which deals with the study of Toxicology (Viṣavidyā or Sarpavidyā).—The decoded mantras are for those aspirants who may use it under the guidance of an able / qualified preceptor after due procedures of initiation or dīkṣā. Regarding the Śaṅkhapāla-viṣaharaṇa-mantra (VII. 20cd-2ab) it says: “Twenty-one morsels of food, sanctified (mantrita) by the aspirant, if given to the victim bitten by Śaṅkhapāla and if the victim is asking for water, he is freed from venom. Also, the victim has to be told a story involving the removal of poison (so as to keep him awake)”.
