PREFACE.
The existence of this puthi, Kamaratna Tantra, in
the Na-Gosain family of North Gauhati, was brought
to my nctice by Srijut Padma Chandra Goswarai, the
well-known Kaviraj of Dharniapur in Katnrnp, while
I was placed on special duty in the cold weather of
1913, to collect Assamese puthis, by the Governmentof Sir Archdale Earle. Through the courtesy of
Srijut Padma Chandra* Goswami, I was able to place
a copy of this put hi, in my collection which is now'
kept under the custody of the Kamarupa AnusandhanSamiti. It was one of the books selected by the AssamGovernment to be copied and published, an English
translation being given side by side with the text.
2. A book of the same name appears in the list of
Tantras given by Sir John Woodroffo in the Introduc-
tion of his Tantric Texts, Vol. I. It is presumed that
the book under review is an Assamese translation of
the original Sanskrit work. A book called KamaratnaTantra and Vashikarana Tantra was published in
•Calcutta by Babu Matilal Bose, so far hack as
1319 B.E. This book, besides the Sanskrit text,
contains a Bengali translation by Pandit Kalipada
Vidyaratna. In the preface of that book it has been
described to be the work of one#Nagahhatta. There are
a large number of omissions in the Calcutta edition. It
is true there are some passages in the Calcutta edition,
which do not appear in this book but they might have
been interpolated from other sources.
3. This book deals with the Tantrika-shat-Karma, viz.,
Shanti, Vashi Karana, Stambhana, Vidveshana,
Uchclniana, and Marana. The swihuna under these
heads is chiefly performed for malevolent purpo es,
which is called abkichara. Besides Kamaratna Tantra
(ii)
there are several other books dealing with such sub-
jects, such as Indrajala Yidya, Kaksha Puta and Phet-
kariai Tantra. But so far as is known these books have
not yet been properly edited and published.
4. The ancient Kamarupa, which extended from the
Karatoya in the Eastern Bengal to the Dikrai in UpperAssam, is said to have been the birthplace of Tantras,
and it is a great pity that no endeavours have yet
been made either by the people or by the Governmentof the country to save from ruin and decay the Tantras
that still exist in different parts of Assam. So long
the Tantras were despised as works on Black Magic andcondemned as a meaningless jabber not only by the
foreign critics but by the English-educated* Indians as
well. The mental attitude of these people appears to
be that what they cannot understand themselves canhive no meaning at all. One cannot conceal his
amazement and delight to see that it remained for a
European scholar, Sir John Woodroffe, to deliver this
branch of religious literature of India, so interesting to
the students of comparative religion, from the depth of
degradation to which it was consinged
.
5. The book at the first sight appears so uncouth
and unintelligible that great pains had to be taken to
prepare the English translation of it. The copy of the
book and its first translation was made by Srijut
Dimbeswar Neog, B.sc, the editor of the Assamese
Quarterly Review Milan. He cannot be found fault
with if his translation was not found sufficiently express-
ive. It had to be thoroughly recast. To an ordinary
eye the book will appear full of indecencies but in the
light of science everything will appear instructive and
illuminating. As this book is intended only for a
limited circle, I make no apology for presenting it man English garb.

FOREWORD.
The text of this book is taken from a copy madefrom the original book which is in the possession of a
branch of the Na-Gosain family of ftorth Gauhati.
This family were the gurus of the Assam Rajas.
The original book is written in ancient Assamese onoblong strips of sanchi bark. It is believed to be not
less than 300 years old. It is probably a translation
into Assamese of an older Sanskrit work of the sametitle. Efforts have been made to Obtain the original
but without success. Evidently the book is kept in
great secrecy and from the contents it appears that
there is much justification for keeping it so.
2. The book describes how by incantations and other
methods a man can be subdued, attraoted, made hostile,
paralysed, killed, freed from evils, excited and so on.
It gives the methods to be adopted for the performanceof the above acta in the form of medicines, mantras andjantrrn.
3. The medicines are ma4e from herbs and roots to
be gathered or uprooted at special seasons and in
particular ways while using the prescribed mantras." A mantra is composed of certain letters arranged in
definite sequence of sounds of which the letters arethe representative signs to produce the designedeffect. The mantra must be intoned in tbe properway, according to svara (rhythm) and varna (sound).A mantra may or may not convey on its face its mean-ing. Bija (seed) mantra such as Aing, Rling, Jlring,have no meaning according to the ordinary use oflanguage. The initiate, however, knows that theirmeaning is the own form (svarupa) of the particularDebata, whose mantras they are, and that they are thedhvani which makes all letters sound and which existin all which we say or hear ". (Vide the introductionto the English translation of Mahanirbana Tantra byArthur Avalon).
(It)
4. A bija or seed mantra is a mantra of a single*
syllable. " These Bijas are generally given in the text
in a covert way. Thus in the Triput-Stotra cited in
the Tantra-Sara it is said ' such as recite the first of
thy golden bija—Vakam placed on Bahni accompanied
by Trimurti combined with Shashanha attain all
prosperity '. This standing by itself is unintelligible.
Bat vaham which ordinarily means a crane in its
special bija sense is *f, Bahni or fire is 3, Trimurti or
the Trinity i9 fc, and Shashanka or the moon or that in
whose lap is the hare <5r man in the moon is ^. The
bija therefore referred to in the Stotra, is*f-f 5J+^+ t/
which is Lakshmi bija Shrin*. The Farm equivalent
of these terms must thus bo understood before the bija
referred to can be read ". ' {Vide the introduction of
Tantrika Text, Volume I, edited by Arthur Avalon).
5.*' Jantraa are charms in ths form of a diagram
engraved or drawn on metal, paper or other substances
which is worshipped in the same manner as an image.
As different mantras are prescribed for different wor-
ships so are different jantras. The jantras are, there-
fore, of various designs according to the object of
worship. Mantra in itself is Debata and jantra
:s mantra in that it is the body of the Debata who is
mantra."
G. Without understanding the underlying principle
^jantras it is impossible to understand this book.
The book prescribes for the use of the guru the various
rituals which are necessary to bo performed in order to
^ain the object aimed at. It is not a book meant for
the use of the layman or worshipper, who has cope
to the (juru in order to obtain his assistance in gaining
his object. The book is of the greatest interest^
both
from the historical and the anthropological point of
view, because it describes methods of enchantment
which were at some time in general use and in which
there was a general belief. How far they are used or
believed in at the present day it would be exceedingly
interesting to enquire. Even to-day, this country
is known as the land of charms and enchantment,
throughout India.
7. It is all the more necessary to preserve what
exists of these relics of the past because in modern life
there is a danger of their disappearance. They may be
forgotten and the records of them may be lost for ever.
So far as is known tfie original text of the Kamaratna
Tantra in the possession of Na-Gosatn family is the onty
<copy in existence in Assam. *
8. The Tantras are religious books of Shakti cult,
teaching magical and mystical formularies for the
worship of the deities. The Tantras according to
Arthur Avalon, a great authority on Tantras, fall
into three recognised groups—Bishnu Krauta, Ratha
Kranta and Aswa Kranta. This book KamaratnaTantra is included in the Aswa Kranta group. A manor a book should be judged by the standard of their
own time and not by the standard of modern times.
In this book there are manv things which may be
considered indecent, if judged by the standards of to-
day. It does not follow that these were so considered at
the time they were written.

KAMARATNA TANTRA.
INTRODUCTION.
Salutation to Shree Krishna. A discourse betweenShiva and Parvati. One day Parvati asked of Shankara"Oh Lord, kindly reveal to me the Karna-Ratna Tan-tra. " Shankara replied, " Oh Parvati, let me relate to
you how and when a person can be subdued (by incan-
tation), attracted, made hostile (t<5 a friend), paralysed,
killed, freed from evils (by propitiatory rites), and so on.
Subjugation and attraction should be caused in the
Spring-, onniit^-causing in the Summer, paralysing in
Rainy Season, killing in the Dewy Season, evil-averting
in the Autumn, and excitation in the Winter.
1. Different Seasons in a day.
The first ten dandas of the day is Spring, the second
ten dandas is Summer, the third ten dandas is the
Rainy Season, the fourth ten dandas is Winter, the
fifth ten dandas is Autumn, and the last ten dandas is
Winter. The above actions become fruitful whenperformed in the given seasons of the day.
2. Actions to be performed according to Tithis.
Acts of subduing should be performed on the seventh
lunar day, attracting on the third or the thirteenth,
excitation on the second or the sixth, paralysing on the
first f the fourth or the fourteenth, charming on the
eighth or the ninth, killing on the tenth, the eleventh
or the twelfth, and evil-averting on the fifth lunar day
or in the full-moon. To attain success all mantras,
mystical diagrams and medicines should be applied in
this order.

3. Actions to be performed according to togas.
Subduing, paralysing, and charming should be
performed in the Mahendra and Varuna Yogas, and en-
mity-causing and excitation in the Vaiyu and Vahni
Yogas.
4. Actions to be performed according to
Nakshatras.
Actions mentioned above for Varuna Yoga should
be performed in one of the lunar mansions like Uttara
Vadrapada, Mula, Shatavis.i, Purvavadrapada, Ashlesd,
Purbasadha when it comes into the Varuna's sphere.
Similarly actions mentioned for Mahendra Yoga are to be
performed in one of the lunar mansions Anuradha,
Jyestha, Uttarasarlha, Rohini when it happens to be in
the Mahendra's sphere ; actions mentioned for Vahni Yo-
ga should be performed in one of the lunar mansions
Swati, flasta, Mrigashira, Adra, Uttara-falguni, Pus-
hya, Punarvasu, when it comes into the Vahni's sphere.
Actions mentioned for Vayu Yt)^a should be performed
in one of the lunar mansions Ashwini, Bharani, Chitra,
Dhanistha, Shravana, Magha, Vishakha, Krittika, Pur-
ba-falguni, Revati, when it comes into the Vayu's
sphere.
5. Use of a particular finger in a particular
action.
In evil-averting actions the mantra, the mystical dia-
gram, and the medicine should be touched by the thumband the forefinger ; in actions bringing prosperity, they
should be touched with the thumb and the middle
finger ; in killing and all other actions they should be
touched with the thumb and the ring-finger (anamika).
Acts of attracting, enmity-causing, killing, and exciting
are called " Avichara, " i.e., employment of spells for
malevolent purposes.

6. The wats or coLLECTiNa herbs.
The medicine ought to be prepared while uttering
the prescribed incantations, otherwise it is as fruitless
as a lump of wood. The herbs are most potent when
they are collected from solitary or sacred places or
forests, while those growing on anthills, in the vicinity
of a well, on gaieways, at the foot of a tree, beside a
temple, or in cremation ground, will not be efficacious
even if they are sanctified by incantations. Again the
bark, the root, and the leaves of plants, submerged in
water, burnt by fire, and eaten by insects or worms,
or having roots 'in the air, will also produce no effect.
To collect medicinal plants a man should fast over
night, and in the following morning, after offering salu-
tations to Mahadeva, should approach the plant with due
respect and utter the mantra (No. 1)—"Ye betal, pishasa,
rakshas, and creeping animals that live in the plant,
go away at the command of Shiva." Then the plant
should be saluted by uttering the mantra (No. 2)--
' Oh mother, thou hast thy birth in the nectar, and
thou increasest strength and vitality. Let me
drive away the sins and diseases/ After this the plant
should be dug with a flawless weapon while uttering
the mantra (No. 3)—' I dig thee with the same sacred
hand with which Brahma, Bhrigu, Indra and Varuna
dug you'. After this prayer, mantra (No. 4) should be
recited— c Oh mother, what is my fault? May the
divine life depart from this plant, so that I may be
save;! from the sin of uprooting and cutting it. Go
thou to heaven doing good to me. ' After this prayer,
the medicinal plant should be dug on a Sunday in
Pushya lunar mansion and in the Eabi Yoga while
uttering the eight-letterod mantra (No. 5). The plant
should then bo cut after reciting the six-lettered mantra.
(No. G).

Whoever is given a handful of flowers over which
the Chamunda mantra (No. 11) is muttered twice
seven times, he becomes subdued.
The root of Bhringaraja (Eclipta Prostrata) and
ashes of cowdung are made into a paste with water,
over which the Chamunda mantra (No. 11) is recited
one hundred and eight times ; if a mark is put on the
forehead with this paste, then everybody is subdued.
If the orchid grown on the Indian Banian tree
is taken out in the Robini lunar* mansion and worn on
the right arm by the male and on the left by the
female, then everybody becomes subdued.
•
If one is made to chew the root of Kachmani {Arbus
Precatorius) with betel-nut on the thirteenth lunar
day, he becomes subdued.
If one is made to chew the dirt taken from the foot
the eye, the nose or the breast, with betel-nut, he
becomes subdued.
One will subdue whomsoever he desires, by using
Ooilyrium, in the Pusya *lunar mansion, as eye-
salve, if the Collyrium is prepared by holding
a piece of plantain sheath besmeared with a
paste made of the powdered root of the black Aparajita
(Clitoria Tematea) plant, mixed with clarified butter of
a cow, over a lamp burned with clarified butter.
9. Subduing of young damsels.
One should first recite the Balabasha mantra(No. 12) one thousand and eight times and then a paste
should be prepared in the cow's milk with saffron, white
sandal, and gorochanfi, (yellow pigment found within
the horns of a certain bullock) and the same mantra
should be muttered seven times over it. If a mark is
made with this paste on the forehead, a young damsel
is subdued at the sight of it.

A parasitic plant " Raghnmala " grown on the
champaka (Michelia Ckampaka) tree should be colleetel
in the Bharani or the Pushya lunar mansion, and if it is
worn on the arm, charmed with mantra, a youngdamsel is suhdued at its sight.
10. Mystical diagrams for subduing in general.
The mystical diagrams should he worn by the female
on her left limbs and by the male * on his right limbs.
The diagrams should be described by a pen made either
of gold, copper, kmha or dub grass.
The first*mystical diagram should be written with the
blood of the third finger on bhurjjapatra (the birch).
The name of the girl who is desired to be subdued
should be inserted in the diagram and then it should be
worn either on the arm or the neck ; it is eflicacious in
the case of illicit love.
The second diagram should be inserted on a bel fruit,
with a thorn of the same tree, the name being inserted
in the diagram ; if the fruit is kept within the oil-press-
ing machine, even the young damsels are suhdued.
The third diagram should be described on a bhurjja-
patm with gorochand and held in the arm ; any person,
whose name is.inscribed in it, will be subdued.
11. Diagrams for subduing unmarried girls.
The first diagram should be written on a bhurjjapatra
with the blood of the third finger, saffron and gorochand^
by a pen made of Chitraka [Plumbago Rosea). Thename of the girl should be inserted in the diagram and
it should then be heated on the fire made of charcoal ot
the Khaira tree {Acacia Catechu) ; by this a gir
becomes subdued.
