Sarvasiddha (सर्वसिद्ध) refers to “all the Siddhas”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly: “Kuleśvarī, the Wish-granting Gem is in the middle between the imperishable and the perishable. [...] In (her) eleventh descent (into the world) she is mother Kujā, the divine Jewel (called Kuṇḍalinī). (She is) the bliss of all the Siddhas [i.e., sarvasiddha] in the Western House [... ?]. Then beginning with one House, the agent and deity is Time. Then beginning with one House, she is also Kālasaṃkarṣiṇī”.
