c17.s5.4

"The worshipper should conceive himself as Mahāsāhasrapramardani who is of white complexion, one-faced and six-armed. She carries in her three right hands the sword, the arrow and the Varada pose, and in the three left the bow, the noose and the Paraśu. She is decked in variegated ornaments, is young and beautiful, displays the sentiment of amour, bears the figure of Vairocana on her crown, sits on the moon over a lotus, and is radiant like the moon".
