[1] Thus, having quickly written down this [verse] by the internal radiance arising at the beginning, it is now explained. What is this? Sequentially, remembrance has manifested of my chosen deity and the assembly of His devotees distinguished by the mercy I sought; or, of my chosen deity alone; or, of Him accompanied by them. Indeed, indeed, through tantra [simultaneous reference], all three are independently obtained. There, first, I make known the first [interpretation]. Here, the word śrī and any other [intended modifier] should also be supplied in the earlier and later places where it was not given, because of subservience to the anuṣṭubh meter.
