Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramMerūrdhva (मेरूर्ध्व) refers to “(that which resides) above Meru”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, “The Khañjinīmata consisting of 1,000 million (verses) [i.e., śatakoṭi] has been uttered . In this way, Śāmbhavīśakti that has no end has become infinite. Śāmbhava, Śākta, and Āṇava have come about by her impulse. She abides (thus) in the three worlds as will, knowledge and action. Bhairava, tranquil and free of defects, resides above Meru [i.e., merūrdhva]. He is rich with the jewels of countless qualities and is encompassed by millions of Rudras”.
