Let us journey through these sacred teachings, unfolding their wisdom as a vivid narrative. The scripture guides the seeker to always contemplate oneself as possessing a form most desirable and enchanting, one that floods the entire world with its presence and acts as the very agent of creation and destruction. In this contemplation, the form is brilliantly blazing, adorned with garlands of flames that stretch up to the realm of Brahma. It is ten-armed, four-faced, with tawny eyes, holding a spear in its hand. Fierce and formidable, it bears protruding fangs and three eyes, the moon adorning its brow. In the pursuit of accomplishment, one should remember Bhairava, and for success in all endeavors, Garuda. For the destruction of serpents, one must visualize Garuda as terrifying and dreadful. His feet are firmly established in the netherworld, and his wings embrace all directions. The seven heavens rest upon his chest, the cosmic egg is situated at his throat, and from the east to Īśāna, his head is to be envisioned. Within the crest of Sadāśiva and the threefold power, the supreme Shiva is directly manifest as Tārkṣya, the lord of worlds. Garuda is three-eyed, fierce in form, destroying poison and serpents, his mouth devouring and dreadful, embodying mantra itself. In all undertakings, Garuda should be contemplated as blazing like the fire of time. Having performed this method of placement, whatever one thinks in the mind becomes attainable; the person becomes Garuda-like. Ghosts, spirits, yakshas, serpents, gandharvas, and rakshasas perish at his sight, as do fevers of the fourth type and others. Dhanvantari then speaks, recounting how Garuda addressed Kaśyapa, just as Maheśvara imparted knowledge to Gauri. The listener is invited to hear likewise. Bhairava continues, promising to explain the ever-moist Tripura, bestower of enjoyment and liberation. He invokes the goddess with sacred syllables: ‘Om hrīṃ, come, O goddess, aiṃ hrīṃ hrīṃ,’ for the formation of the line, and further mantras for Madana-kṣobhinī, Nirañjanā, Vāgati, Khanetra-avalīti, and Vegavatī, for the seat of the great spirit. He instructs worship with these mantras, each for a particular aspect or face—western, northern, southern, upper, and the implements: noose, goad, skull, armor, and missile. He details the worship in each direction: in the east, Kāmarūpa, Asitāṅga, Bhairava, and Brahmāṇī; in the south, Kanda, Ruru Bhairava, and Māheśvarī; in the west, Caṇḍa; in the north, Colka, Krodha, and Vaiṣṇavī. In the southeast, Aghorā, Unmatta Bhairava, and Vārāhī; in the northwest, Sārā, Kapālin Bhairava, and Māhendrī. In the northwest corner, Jalandhara, the Terrible One, Bhairava, and Camunda are to be worshipped; in the northeast corner, Vatuka, Samhara, and Candika. The worship continues with Rati, Priti, Kama, and the Five Arrows. Through meditation, worship, recitation, and offerings, the goddess is always accomplished. Nitya and Tripura destroy disease by the sequence of Jvalamukhi, who is auspicious and should be worshipped in the center. Nityaruna, overcome by desire, is by nature great delusion, along with Mahendrani, Kalanakarshini, and Bharati. Brahmani, Mahesi, Kaumari, Vaisnavi, Varahi, Mahendri, Camunda, and Aparajita are named, as well as Vijaya, Ajita, Mohini, Tvarita, Stambhini, Jrimbhini, and Kalika outside the lotus. By worshipping in the sequence of Jvalamukhi, poison and the like are removed. Bhairava then offers the crest-jewel for the purification of good and evil. Remembering the Sun, the Goddess, the host, and Soma, one should inscribe it. It consists of three lines, resembling cow urine or from a flowing stream, or produced at the place of the directions. One should count banners and the like in order: the banner, smoke, lion, dog, bull, donkey, elephant, and vulture—these eight are to be known by name and installed with mantras. He explains the meanings of these omens: seeing a banner in its place indicates thoughts of sovereignty and wealth; smoke brings thoughts of metals and gain; a lion brings gain of wealth; a dog brings thoughts of servants and happiness; a bull brings position and gain; a donkey brings suffering and distress; an elephant brings position and victory; a vulture brings distress and loss of wealth. If a banner is seen at the place of smoke, suffering is followed by wealth; smoke at the place of smoke brings quarrels and suffering. A lion at the place of smoke brings thoughts of the mind and wealth; a dog brings victory and gain; a bull brings women, horses, and wealth; a donkey brings disease and loss of wealth; an elephant brings gain of kingdom and victory; a vulture brings loss of wealth and kingdom. A banner at the lion's place indicates gain of kingdom; smoke brings acquisition of a maiden and wealth; the lion in its own place brings victory and meeting with friends; the lion entering its house brings thoughts of women and gain of villages; a bull in the lion's place brings house, field, and wealth; an elephant brings ownership of villages, health, long life, and happiness; a crow brings maiden, grain, and virtues. A flag in the dog's place brings thoughts of position and happiness; smoke brings quarrel and destruction of undertakings; a lion brings success in undertakings; a dog brings loss of wealth; a bull frees the sick from disease; a donkey brings fear of quarrel; an elephant brings union with son and wife; a crow brings suffering and destruction of the family. A flag in the bull's place brings royal honor and happiness; smoke brings royal honor and happiness. Thus, the scripture unfolds a tapestry of contemplation, worship, and the reading of omens, guiding the seeker through the mysteries of form, mantra, and ritual, all for the attainment of accomplishment, purification, and the removal of obstacles.
