Who made Tantra accessible to everyone, and who is eligible for Vedic versus Tantrik Sandhya?
Lord Shiva made Tantra accessible to all; per the Varnashrama framework, those not eligible for Vedic Sandhya or the Yajnopavita are directed to take Tantrik initiation and perform Tantrik Sandhya instead, and per the Parvati Gita, anyone may take initiation into any of the Ten Mahavidyas and attain liberation.
