I have one more query. In Sri Vidya you go through several kramas like Ganapati, Bala, Dandini, Mantrini etc. Do they do yantra archana during all kramas? What is to be done with yantras after one proceeds to next krama? Because worshipping multiple yantras daily is almost impossible.

Please see this one: https://www.amazon.in/Spiritual-Living-Original-Protection-Prosperity/dp/B0DV5NNZYN/ref=pd_lpo_d_sccl_1/257-6317617-3469702?pd_rd_w=BGYDF&content-id=amzn1.sym.e0c8139c-1aa1-443c-af8a-145a0481f27c&pf_rd_p=e0c8139c-1aa1-443c-af8a-145a0481f27c&pf_rd_r=ZHYHFYD0WAZC80DSKQHE&pd_rd_wg=K8KFY&pd_rd_r=325a0459-8aed-4322-9026-a8b31bbc73bb&pd_rd_i=B0DV5NNZYN&psc=1

Yes, he mentioned to me last week at the Rochester temple, that it was one of his first books. He is really a treasure house of Tantra!

There is a tortoise shaped yantra with the sanskrit alphabet embossed on it. Try and get that etched on a plate or print it to place under your mat. You can also visualize the same or draw it manually if you prefer. The list of mantras should be recited and not written down. Normally, we face the Eastern direction while praying to the deities.

I would recommend that you go through Mantra Mahodadhi. The English translation by Shri Ram Kumar Rai is outstanding. There is also a Hindi translation from him that can be referred to as well. This book explains the entire tantric procedures of worship from dawn to dusk. There are some additional procedures that need to be followed for certain mantras and those would be disclosed as per the Guru's tradition.

Krishna ji, this is a really wonderful article. However I am assuming that the above is like a good glossary of each relevant concept and does not prescribe any order of actions (as sankalpam comes too later in the sequence). Is there any article on manblunder or any book that describes the daily routine beginning right from waking to tantric sandhya to japa and all related actions mandatory to be performed by sadhakas. There are many questions like how many japa is required during sandhya, what is the sequence of actions post sandhya. Eagerly waiting for your word.

He has a book मूलमन्त्र जप विधानम् which is available on amazon.in. Many of his good writings are available for free online/

Simply as a list or is there some yantra or other graphical layout for this?

Yes, you can etch them on a copper or brass plate. Get the kūrma cakra etched on a plate and place it below the mat. This should do.

We are no longer maintaining the links for these files. I would recommend that you try and obtain it from sanskritdocuments.org for your study purposes. If you wish to recite the stotras, then consider obtaining an initiation from a qualified Śrī Vidyā guru and proceed further.
