Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramMerupṛṣṭha (मेरुपृष्ठ) refers to the “top of Meru”, according to the Ṭīkā (commentary) on the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, “Consisting of forty-two syllables, Samayā Devī along with the (praṇavas) that encapsulate (her) is on top of Meru (merupṛṣṭha). (In other words) she should be worshipped in the calyx in the middle of the Kramamaṇḍala and also in the End of the Twelve. Another (scripture says) the same (namely): ‘Meru is said to be the head’. The goddess Samayā should not be worshipped alone (but) along with Ādyanātha who is Navātman. This is the meaning. [...]”.
