svarṇākarṣaṇabhairava mantramaya stotram

The gold-attracting Bhairava, in a hymn whose first verse is its own ritual preface rather than praise: Brahmā is declared the seer, triṣṭubh the metre, Svarṇākarṣaṇa Bhairava — who is Hari, Hara and Brahmā together — the deity, hrīṁ the seed and Bhṛgu's daughter the power. Naming Lakṣmī as the power of a Bhairava is the whole design of the text, which sets a fierce form to the work of wealth. The colophon places it in the Tripurā Siddhānta and says it was spoken by Dakṣiṇāmūrti, the silent teaching form of Śiva, which is an unexpected source for a hymn about gold. Its phalaśruti is correspondingly direct: even a man of poor fortune obtains, by Bhairava's favour, more wealth than he wished for, and with it the accomplishment of the alchemical arts.
