‘Oṃ hrīṃ krauṃ kṣlaiṃ kṣlaṃ hrīṃ hrīṃ hrīṃ hrūḥ huṃ phaṭ to the Lord of Mercury, to Mahākālabhairava, of terrible form, with dark yellowish-brown eyes: / descend, descend! cause to descend, cause to descend! speak, speak! cause to speak, cause to speak! declare the good and bad, declare, declare! make great protection, make, make! grant mercurial success!’ / Thus the garland mantras. / ‘Oṃ to Mahākālabhairava, to the heart, namaḥ.’ / ‘Oṃ to Mahābalabhairava, to the head, svāhā.’ / ‘Oṃ to Aghorabhairava, to the crest, vauṣaṭ.’ / ‘Oṃ to Vajravīrabhairava, to the armor, huṃ.’ / ‘Oṃ to Krodhabhairava, to the eye, vauṣaṭ.’ / ‘Oṃ to Kaṅkālabhairava, to the weapon, phaṭ.’ / Everywhere ending in svāhā. / Thus the placements on the limbs. / One should perform the placements on the fingers first in this way. / These are the root mantras for the six limbs and for worship.
