Description and curator notes
A very short Śākta Upaniṣad presenting an ordered sequence of initiatory and contemplative identifications. Its named forms include Medhāsparśamaṇi Kālī, Cintāmaṇi Kālī, Siddhakālī, and Kāmakalākālī, linking differentiated manifestations to an inward understanding of the Goddess. The text is useful as a concise witness to Kālī’s plurality within an initiatory framework. No secure composition date is supplied by the digital edition.
