ଶ୍ରୀ ତାରା ପ୍ରତ୍ଯଙ୍ଗିରା କଵଚମ୍

A short Rudrayamala kavacha that joins Ugra Tara to Pratyangira, and its body is an ordered set of eight. The dhyana is of the terrible form, short and heavy-bellied, garlanded with skulls, four-armed with the tongue lolling and the boon-giving hand out. Then the eight powers of Tara are named in sequence and each is given a line to itself which turns her name back into the verb it was made from: the one who halts, halt them; the one who bewilders, bewilder them; the one who agitates, the one who sets them spinning, the fierce one, the one who ends them. The eighth breaks the pattern. Tarini, the one who ferries across, is aimed at nobody: guard me everywhere, from every calamity and every being. The closing verses tell the reciter to hold Nilasarasvati in mind throughout, and name the battlefield, the king's court and the fortress as the places this is for.
