I met this word in "The Quartet of Causeries" of which I am delighted. I definitely recommend it.
Enjoy!

Candramahāroṣaṇa (sic)
There is a Romanian translation of "Sexual secrets" that misspell the name of Caṇḍamahāroṣaṇa as "Chandramaharosana Tantra". It seems that this happens also to Nepalese scribes. See the picture bellow:
[iti śrī kallavīrākhyaśrīcandramahāroṣaṇatantre......]
If you click on the image you will be able to see the full manuscript in Tokyo University Library. The line above is at the 8-th page of the it.
Another interesting thing about this manuscript is that it lists in the end 26 chapters. The additional chapter comes from the mess done between 14 and 17 chapters. It seems that some have the inverted order. I'll come with more info after a careful reading of it.
