śrīmadugratārāhṛdayastotram

A heart-hymn of Ugratara from the Bhairavi Tantra, in a dialogue of Shiva and Parvati, and Shiva introduces it as the best of the hymns of Tara and one always to be kept secret. What the verses do is give her Kali's names without argument: made of darkness, the great illusion, of terrible cry, fearsome, having the form of time, called by the name Kalika, the destroyer of the world. In this tradition the two are not separated, and the hymn assumes rather than defends that. Twenty-nine units carry the viniyoga, the placing of seer and metre, the hand-placing, the heart-placing and the hymn itself, in the ordinary order of such texts.
