Talk:Cakrasaṃvara Tantra

message: I would like to move Chakrasamvara to 'Chakrasamvara Tantra', with 
the appropriate redirect, in imitation of the Guhyasamaja article 
which deals with the tantra, of whom Guhyasamaja is the central
figure. Also to expand this article to match that one, and then the other Yidam articles.  But, I wanted to discuss it here first to see what other 
editors thought. Thanks. Zero sharp (talk) 05:14, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  A call for critical review of ... 

message: Okay, I clicked on the off-site references--numbered I to LI in the body of the text--and got page after page of senseless charts which seem to be obsessed with rape. I hope to dear God that this is symbolic or something. Even then, I have to wonder about the "spirituality" of people who would be attracted to this.

thread_title: What the fuck is this shit?

message: There is a request to provide a sound file or pronunciation key. The word Chakra is pronounced as ( tʃ ə k r ə ) with both "a" sounds being short. The second part is ( s ə m b ɑː r ə ). In English it would be Chakrasambara, with the accent on -ba-. If someone could add this info it would be nice, since I do not know how to write it properly to make it show in the article. Basically, the first letter as it appears, the C, is pronounced like the Ch in Charles and the v actually sounds more like a b, as in boat, when pronounced. Writing systems usually include a dot underneath n to make it sound more like the ng in sing, but it usually does not appear under an m in the texts I have seen. M in Sanskrit is a tad more nasal than in English though. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit. The symbols used were copied from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IPA_for_English.  
May this helpful information be of benefit to all.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.85.8.91 (talk) 17:36, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pronunciation 

message: "The Cakrasaṃvara Tantra... is considered to be of the mother class of the Anuttarayoga Tantra in Vajrayana Buddhism." What does this sentence mean? The term "mother class" isn't something this reader, anyway, is familiar with, and googling the term turns up nothing helpful. The reference to which this sentence points doesn't use the term either.
I realize this sounds picky, but I think this sentence is crucial to the article. Use of this term seems to leave the question of the relationship between this tantra and Vajrayana Buddhism unclear.
