the text has several buddhist features, including a verse praising the goddess chinnamasta; the buddhist idea of a "chandoha", a gathering place; the existence of four elements (not five as in shaivite tradition); the term "kutagara", a "multi-storeyed palace"; the three "vajras" ("kaya", "vak", and "citta"); "trikaya", the buddhist triple body; and in early versions even the buddha is associated with "bindu", shiva, and vishnu. (7.15) in addition the text mentions the vajrayana notion of "svadhisthana yoga", visualising oneself as a god.
