It was gleaned from a manuscript that was shared with me. I don't own the manuscript nor can I say with complete certainty about its authenticity. Some of these secret scriptures are not published openly or even shared with others, for us to be able to authenticate their sources. You should be aware that all the information we see in books, attributed to tantras, are from manuscripts in private collections or in possessions of various organizations entrusted with their preservation. If for any reason you find this or any other information to be false or not authentic enough, I would strongly urge you to avoid the recitation or use of the same. As is customary in tantra, all of these stotras and mantras should ONLY be obtained from one's own guru and NEVER sourced from books or other sources. What we have provided here is only for informational purposes and is subjective to change, as and when we find any errors in the transcoding of these documents or in their interpretations.

Śaktism has its origins in Kashmir Śaivism and therefore the Uḍḍiyāna pīṭha being the Swat valley of Kashmir, is the most plausible and widely accepted notion. Kanchi also comes under one of the 64 pīṭhas and is very sacred to the worship of the Divine Mother Lalita Devi.

There can be more than one curse on these high yielding mantras, to prevent their misuse. This particular one has the full mantra + sauḥ + second half of the mantra. Please examine closely.

This is in regards to Nama #379 Oḍyāṇa-pīṭha-nilayā ओड्याण-पीठ-निलया Oḍyāṇa-pīṭha Is noted by several tantras as one of the 4 major shaktipeethas of the ancient world. It has been a long academic debate on the identification of Uddiyana (also spelt as Oddiyana, Odryana) opinions differ. According to some, it was Udyana in or near Swat Valley or Kashgar on the silk route in Central Asia. Some scholars think that Uddiyana was the region of Urain in the district of Monghyr in Bihar, near Kiul. Haraprasad Sastri, followed by a few other scholars, locate it in Orissa. Yet others are of the opinion that it was a part of Bengal. I was very excited to hear some recent research that Uddiyana is our own Kanchipuram ( Kamakoti peetham). It makes total sense as Oddiyanum is a Tamil world meaning a gold waist ornament or girdle. The Sanskrit name of Uddiyana is Kanchi. Professor Lokesh Chandra has done extensive research pointing to Kanchipuram as the ancient Oddiyana. A great many Buddhist scholars and tantrikas lived in Kanchi during the first millinieum CE who eventually travelled to Tibet and China.

Hi - the Dakshina curse removal mantra seems much easier than what was provided here: https://manblunder.com/articlesview/dakshina-kali-mantra-japa The one you listed simply adds Sauh in middle. It his accurate? Thank you!

It is in our to do list and will certainly be addressed in due course of time. You may lookup the "lighter" Laghu Ṣoḍhā nyāsa, if that interests you.

I loved the detailed explanations. A good complement to these articles would be to publish the Mahā (higher) Ṣoḍhā Nyāsa and the explanations of the purpose of the invoked deities.
