One should worship the Guru and Gaṇapati on the left and right; / one should worship the lord of the field in the northeast corner, and then Vāstoṣpati in proper order; / one should worship Vāgdevī there, and then worship Kātyāyanī. / [One should worship] righteousness, knowledge, dispassion, and sovereign power with vowels ending in 'namaḥ' / in the corners starting from the northeast, [as] the feet of the pedestal in succession. / With these two, the bindu and the visarga, one should worship unrighteousness and the others. / In the four directions in the forms of sattva, and in the center Ananta together with the Tāraka [mantra]; / one should install the three guṇas—sattva and the rest—in those forms upon the pedestal. / Above its covering, [one should place] Māyā along with Lakṣmī and Śiva. / At the end of that, furthermore, a lotus, the complete threefold maṇḍala, / covered with petals, filaments, and anthers, inscribed in order with the letters of the Tāraka. / Having thus worshipped the three lotuses, devoutly in the middle of the maṇḍala, / one should worship Vāmā, Jyeṣṭhā, and Raudrī in the cardinal directions beginning with the eastern division. / One should worship the nine Śaktis, beginning with Vāmā, accompanied by the nine vowels; / and one should worship [them] in the heart with the pedestal mantra preceded by the three seed-syllables. / Surrounded by the first limbs in circumambulation, and by the five forms and Śaktis, / and by the three Śakti forms, and by others endowed with the two treasures, / encircled by Ananta and the rest, by the Mothers, by the Bull and others, / by the supernatural powers beginning with aṇimā, and by Indra and the others along with their weapons; / the Bull, Kṣetrapāla, Caṇḍeśa, Durgā, Skanda, and Nandin, / Gaṇeśa, and the commander of the army, each characterized by their respective marks; / aṇimā, mahimā, garimā, and laghimā, / īśitva, vaśitva, prāpti, and prākāmya— / these are declared to be the eight sovereign powers, consisting purely of light; / previously with the five Brahmamantras, in order beginning with Hṛllekhā, / the worship with the limbs, Umā and others, and Indra and others, was declared by those sages. / One should worship Umā, Caṇḍeśvara, and the others starting from the north. / In this way, Sadāśiva, the embodiment of light, endowed with these surrounding deities,
