Right there, "because of the moon, the letter \*ṭha\*, on whose head the letter \*ḍa\* is situated above, and causing radiance, splendor, everywhere"—this yields the glorious twelve-and-a-half-part mantra of Tripurāmbikā: \*hsklrḍai hsklrdī hsklrdauḥ\*. These four also have forms beginning with \*sa\*: \*śai śklīṃ śauḥ\*, and so on. Likewise, the six mantras beginning with Bālā can end in a visarga, end in a bindu, end in both bindu and visarga, or be devoid of both, and so on; this should be inferred according to traditional teaching. By the first seed syllable and the final seed syllable of the Bālā \[mantra\], ending in bindu and visarga, all the vowels are made manifest. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.sampradaya.general.devistotra.laghustuti.58) . katham . ivarṇāvarṇayorguṇayogādekāro bhavati . punarekārasya avarṇena vṛddhiyogādaikāraḥ . tathāca > How?
