Tārika (तारिक) refers to “one who saves (the fettered)”, 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 illustrating the composition of the Goddess’s body]: “[...] Again, in the world of transmigration, in the triple transmission within the three cities, in the middle, is the energy of Śiva’s Fire, which is the Vidyā, the plane of the foundation who, as the six planes, is the (Goddess) Kālikā who saves (the fettered) (tārika-kālikā). That is merged within the Self in the abiding state of liberation [... ?] I am Kālikā, the destroyer while, the most excellent (member of the) transmission has, in reality, been emitted with the name of Kujīśa, who is most excellent.. [...]”.
