Source: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesSarvasaṃpūrṇa (सर्वसंपूर्ण) refers to “being completely furnished” (with appropriate qualities), according to chapter 50 of the 10th-century Ḍākārṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Accordingly, “Now, I will explain the characteristic of Mahākaṅkāla. [...] In the middle of that [top of the head], one should visualize a great hero in the form of a donkey. One should meditate on [his] maṇḍala, which is completely furnished (sarvasaṃpūrṇa) with all [appropriate qualities] and is greatly effective. The great hero in the middle of that [maṇḍala] is based on the yoga of Mahākaṅkāla. [...]”.
