Description and curator notes
A Devī–Bhairava dialogue introduces Bhadrakālī’s Jaganmaṅgala protective hymn. The text includes ritual identification, a visualization of a dark Goddess, seed syllables, and bodily protection. Its framing relates the practice to the four human aims: dharma, prosperity, desire, and liberation. Although it shares the Jaganmaṅgala title with a Śyāmā/Kālī kavaca, its opening, deity specification, and mantric structure identify a distinct Bhadrakālī text.
