Yes, there are different Guru Mandalas for Panchadashi, Shuddha Shdashi, Mahashodashi etc. Yatidandaishvary vidhi and other books give details

You do understand that these are Mantroddhar shloks and not mantras themselves right? Reciting these verses will not do any good. Kali means kali vija, kurcha means hoom and so on. These verses (which by the way are corrupted, not sure where you copied these from incorrectly) code the actual shapoddhar mantra. Every Mahaavidyaa has shapoddhara, utkilana, sanjivana, dipana and other mantras. Samparadik Gurus impart this to disciples. Manasataramgini Blog or Kamakotimandali.com/blog are the best sites to get authentic info from advanced Upasaks.

Thank you so much I will be anxiously waiting for the reply. I heard they are available in Guhyakali khanda of Mahakala samhita but I don't have access to that book. I hope that you could please provide the information.

As you said it is difficult to get certain mantras and even if available, the correctness could not be verified. However, I will try to get these details in due course.

Hello Raviji,Can you please post all mantras of Guhyakali who has different number of heads? In Mahakala Samhita it is said there are almost like 18 different forms of Guhyakali please let us know what they are with their dhyana? I cannot get this information from anywhere. Everywhere I saw they are mentioning that Guhyakali has 100 heads but not more than that.I would really appreciate if you could shed some more light on this aspect of the great goddess.Thank you

Yes, She is also know as Raktatārā (raktarara means more red). Thank you for your gesture. At the end of the day, all of us should be benefited.

She has been described sometimes as raktatara also. in stores in bodhagaya her idols are easily available. i personally saw them. 6inches high bronze idols with four hand.....two holding flowery bow and arrow and other two with pasa and ankusa. they have asked arround 1600 rupees. beneath her feet one figure was there.i have one text where in tantrik sandhya vandana of ugratara one dhyana describing this form but kurukulla name was not there. if i can find the text containing book i will upload this verse here.

Description of Kurukullā is highly complicated and no authoritative source is available to provide meaningful interpretation. Whatever I understand from the texts, I am providing information, which however is not authenticated. Kurukullā is mainly related to Buddhism. She is referred in one of the important Buddhist Scriptures, Guhya-samāja-tantra as Ḍākinī (डाकिनी). In this text (verse 32) makes a reference to Ḍākinī and the meaning of this verse is “Yoga, atiyoga, mahāyoga (different stages of samādhi ) occur by themselves; also Vajrin, Ḍākinī as well as any union (yoga) of both, by themselves. Probably this could mean the union of Vārāhī and Kurukullā in formation of a body (including gross and subtle). When their union is complete (probably in samādhi), she is known as Vajraḍākinī (possibly like the union of Śiva and Śakti), who is said to be shining in nature. These narrations and descriptions are tantric in nature and do not augur well with dakṣinācāra. There are contradictory opinions about her appearance. Mostly She is described with horrific form. But Buddhist Scriptures say that She is a young and beautiful damsel of sixteen years who has a single face and she wears a garland made of skulls (like Kālī). It appears that there is only one mantra for her, which reads thusom kurukulle hūṁ hrīṁ svāhā || ॐ कुरुकुल्ले हूं ह्रीं स्वाहा॥Many Scriptures relate her to some form of Tārā Devi. Since, we do not have any authentic source of information of her, it is advisable not to practice her mantra or worship her.
