Tridhāmastha (त्रिधामस्थ) refers to “residing in the triple abode” (of the energy of Kula), 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, “Kaula, whose sphere is the unmanifest, is in the triple abode of the energy of Kula (kulaśakti-tridhāmastha). That which is within Kula (Śiva / Śakti) and Kaula (the Absolute) is said to be (the supreme) plane (of existence). All that is contrary to enjoyment and Yoga is devoid of Kaula”.
