Śaktisaṃyuta (शक्तिसंयुत) refers to “being accompanied by one’s consort”, 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, “Bhairava, the Lord of the gods, the Great Lord, has been described (to you). He is the fearsome lord of the Tantras of the Left. Black, (his) consort accompanies him (śaktisaṃyuta). O Śambhu, this is the Southern Tradition explained in (this) compendium of the Tantras. He is the preferred authority in the south and is adorned with Śikhārāja. Devoid of Kula and established by the method prescribed by the Lion Transmission, it has authority in the Dvāpara Age and is part of the Śrīkrama. Such is the Southern House, which bestows (much) fruit, recommended to you”.
