Fol. 1: Bower manuscript \[Recto: "The obverse of this leaf, the surface of which has entirely flaked off, was inscribed with the commencement of the Mayūra Jātaka. The lost text began with bhūtapūrvam and ended with mayūrarājo babhūva, as shown in the Appendix."\] And now, Ānanda, I shall explain the heart of this queen of spells, the Mahāmāyūrī, namely: itti mitti tili mili mitti mitti / dumba tumba suvaca cirikasiya bhinna meḍi, homage to the Buddhas, cikīrṣā prāptamūle itihārāḥ lohitamūle / dumba amba kuṭṭi kunaṭṭi naṭṭi kunna naṭṭi vilakuñja naṭṭi aṭṭakavantāyāṃ, let the god rain for nine months, for ten months, thus: / ili mili kili mili ketumūle duduma sudumeḍe dalime santuvaṭṭe vusaṭṭe vusavaṭṭe / vusara enavastaruke nakkali narmalime narakhara makhile iti sajjale tumba tumbaṃ anaḍe pranaḍe aṇanaḍe, / let the god rain with fresh water seven times all around, nārāyaṇe pārāyaṇe haritāle kuntāle / ilime, may the mantra phrases be successful, svāhā! This indeed, Ānanda, is the heart of the queen of spells, the Mahāmāyūrī. - [Previous: 54](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.54) - [Next: 56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.56) ## Linked texts (1) - [Bower Manuscript](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower.55) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.55](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.55) · Pramāṇa
