Siddhibhājana (सिद्धिभाजन) refers to one “endowed with every accomplishment”, according to the 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, “This Kula liturgy (krama) is linked in this way to (the tradition transmitted through) the series (of teachers) (pāramparya). He who practices it having learnt it from the teacher’s mouth is endowed with (every) accomplishment (siddhibhājana). Otherwise, for anyone who acquires this knowledge by deceit, it will at that very moment be fruitless for him”.
