Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram1) ¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹ (रतà¥à¤¨à¥‡à¤¶) refers to one of the Sixteen Siddhas according to the ManthÄnabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess KubjikÄ.—These sixteen spiritual teachers represent the disciples of the Nine NÄthas who propagated the Western Transmission noted in the KubjikÄ Tantras. According to the lunar symbolism of the KulakaulinÄ«mata, these these sixteen teachers are the rays of the moon. This specific list of Sixxteen Siddhas [e.g., ¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹] is found in the KumÄrikÄkhaṇá¸a of the ManthÄnabhairavatantra.
¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹ is the CaryÄ name of this NÄtha (i.e., the public name the Siddha uses when living as a wandering renouncer). Bhojadeva is further associated with the following: (1) PÅ«jÄ or worship-name: ÅšrÄ«vimala (as one of the “five pure onesâ€�) (alternatively, VÄ«ra/Amá¹›ta); (2) Divine counterpart: KulamÄtaṇga; (3) Location in the body: Right shoulder (alternatively, Nostril or Skin); (4) Lineage: The lineage of the eldest (±è²¹°ùÄå²Ô±¹²¹²â²¹); (5) Teacher: GaganÄnanda.
2) ¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹ (रतà¥à¤¨à¥‡à¤¶) is the PÅ«jÄ-name of ³ÕÄ«°ùÄå²Ô²¹²Ô»å²¹: one of the Nine NÄthas according to the á¹¢aá¹sÄhasrasaṃhitÄ and KumÄrikÄkhaṇá¸a, of the ManthÄnabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess KubjikÄ.—The Nine NÄthas propagated the Western Transmission noted in the KubjikÄ Tantras. Although each Siddha has a consort with which he shares some part of his spiritual discipline, she is not considered to be his wife. Thus, from the perspective of his identity as an initiate, he is not a householder.—DÄmodara is the name at birth (i.e., the original names of the Siddhas) of ³ÕÄ«°ùÄå²Ô²¹²Ô»å²¹. His PÅ«jÄ-name is ¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹ [Alternatively, according to the KubjikÄnityÄhnikatilaka: Kumuda]. This PÅ«jÄ name is the one by which the Siddhas are worshipped.

[...] Kumuda-nÄtha is associated with the birth-place called Pauṇá¸ra and is also known as ¸é²¹³Ù²Ô±ðÅ›²¹ and KÅ«rma [the name found in a series of mantras addressed to the nine ²ÔÄå³Ù³ó²¹²õ].
