> After thus worshipping the Sumeru hill, the Mandarâchala should also be worshipped with the following words :—‘O Mandarâchala ! Thou art embellished with the forest called Chaitra-ratha, and the continent, called Bhadrâśva, therefore, soon bring happiness unto me. O, Gandhamâdana ! Thou art the crest jewel of the continent, Jambudvîpa, and art adorned with Gandharvavana, therefore, grant me high renown. O, Hiraṇmaya hill, Thou art adorned by the Ketumâla continent as well as by the garden called Vaibhrâja. The golden fig tree is on your summit, let my power therefore be everlasting. O Supârśva hill, Thou standest majestic, beautified by the northern Kuru country and the Sâvitrî forest, therefore, let my prosperity be inexhaustible.’ After thus invoking those hills, the devotee should bathe in the morning and give away the best central hill, to the guru (preceptor).—31-35.
