Summary

The Tantra of Black Yamāri features the three-faced, six-armed black form of the tantric deity Yamāri, as well as the maṇḍalas of several ancillary maṇḍala deities associated with him, all of which can be employed for a diverse array pacifying, enriching, enthralling, and hostile rites. The tantra describes the stages of initiation and practice for these deities and provides extensive details on the preparation of their maṇḍalas, associated ritual implements, and specific magical diagrams (yantra) that can be employed for various ritual goals.
