Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)

Source: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram

Saṃprayojya (संप्रयोज्य) refers to “appointing someone” (to authority), 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, [while discussing how Vajrabodhi was converted by Siddhanātha]: “(There was a) Brahmin Bodhisattva in (the city) called the Moon * * * (?) with anger, the great soul again and with force appointed him (saṃprayojya) to authority. He disappeared and that instant (all his) transitory desires came to an end by (his) divine thought. I bow to that Nātha with devotion, the venerable Oṃkāranātha who is the churning of supreme power”.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
