2.29

"When the practitioner sees this, his heart is terrified and his hair stands on end. Because of his terror, the rākṣasas rage with fierce power and fight with the yakṣas. The rākṣasas are victorious; they sever the yakṣas' heads, use the piśācas' hands and feet as necklaces, and use the kumbhāṇḍas' genital organs as flower garlands, drumming and dancing on the ground before him, with canine teeth protruding upward like the branches of a sword tree, and hail raining from their eyes, thunderbolts and fire blazing forth. Then the yakṣas are victorious again; they strike and seize the rākṣasas, flay the skin from their faces, gouge out their female genitals, sever the kumbhāṇḍas' genital organs, and use the piśācas' hands and feet as flower garlands, threading them through their ears and around their necks, drumming and dancing on the ground before him, shaking their bodies and shouting loudly, uttering great, evil cries that are terrifying indeed.
