5. Perhaps the most intriguing and
esoteric manifestation of different
forms of the Goddess are the ten
Mahavidya-s, who hold a preeminent
position of great practical
prominence in the Shakta traditions
particularly of North India. Though it
is believed that they emerged at a
much later date, some of the
Mahavidyas have acquired
tremendous prominence as
individual deities and have elaborate
worship methodology and dedicated
traditions centered around them.
6. The most common list of these 10 Mahavidyas
are as follows: Kali, Tara, Sodashi,
Bhuvaneshwari, Bhairavi, Chinnamasta,
Dhoomavati Bagalamukhi, Matangi, and
Kamala. However, this is not the final or fixed
progression because certain traditions do have
variations in the number and placement of the
Mahavidyas.
7. The Todala Tantra says
Bagalamukhi relates to Kurma
Avatara, Dhoomavati to
Varaha, Chinnamasta to

the blue form.
