According to the [[Hevajra Tantra]] (see Snellgrove 1959, 1:70) these are: [[Jalandhara]], [[Oddiyana]], [[Paurnagiri]], [[Kamarupa]], [[Malaya]], [[Sindhu]], [[Nagara]], [[Munmuni]], [[Karunyapataka]], [[Kulata]], [[Arbuta]], [[Godavari]], [[Himadri]], [[Harikela]], [[Lampaka]], [[Kani]], [[Saurasta]], [[Kalinga]], [[Kokana]], [[Caritra]], [[Kosala]], and [[Vindhyakaumarapaurika]].

Other sources, such as the ''[[sadhana]]'' ([[sgrub thabs]]) of the ''[[Queen of Great Bliss]]'' ([[yum bka' bde chen rgyal mo]]) from the ''[[Longchen Nyingthig]]'' (see [[Tulku Thondup]], 1985), give a different enumeration of these [[twenty-four sacred places]].  They abide on the [[vajra-body]] inherent in every sentient being, which is symbolized here by the body of [[Vajrayogini]].  These twenty-four are divided in three groups:
 
a) Eight celestial abodes (Skt. - ''khagacharya'', Tib. - [[mkha' spyod]]): 1) The crown of the head is [[Jalandhara]], 2) in between the eyebrows is [[Pulliramalaya, 3) the nape is [[Arbuta]], 4) the ''[[urna]]'' (the hair at the center of the forehead) is [[Rameshvara]], 5) the right ear is [[Oddiyana]], 6) the left ear is [[Godavari]], 7) the eyes are [[Devikota]], and 8) the shoulders are [[Malava]].
 
b) Eight earthly abodes (Skt. - ''gocharya'', Tib. - ''[[sa spyod]]'': 9) the throat is [[Lampaka]], 10) the underarms and kidneys are [[Kamarupa]], 11) the two breasts are [[Odra]], 12) the navel is [[Trishanku]], 13) the nose-tip is [[Koshala]], 14) the palate is [[Kalinga]], 15) the heart is both [[Kanchika]] and 16) [[Himalaya]] ([[Himavat]]).  ([[MR-ShabkarNotes]])
 
c) Eight undergound abodes (Skt. - ''bhugarbha'', Tib. - ''[[sa 'og gi gnas brgyad]]''): 17) the genitals are [[Pretapuri]], 18) the anus is [[Grihadeva]], 19) the thumbs and the big toes are [[Maru]], 20) the thighs are [[Saurashtra]], 21) the calves are [[Suvarnadvipa]], 22) the sixteen other fingers and toes are [[Nagara]], 23) the knees are [[Kulata]], and 24) the ankles are [[Sindhu]]

This is the RYI Dictionary content as presented on the site http://rywiki.tsadra.org/, which is being changed fundamentally and will become hard to use within the GoldenDict application. If you are using GoldenDict, please either download and import the rydic2003 file from DigitalTibetan (WayBack Machine version as the site was shut down in November 2021).

Or go directly to http://rywiki.tsadra.org/ for more upcoming features.
