107 The aparājitā vidyā, written with rocanā on a piece of birch bark (bhūrja), is referred to in the context of a ritual, in which an amulet (pratisarā) is tied around the neck of a child in order to ward off grahas. This ritual is accompanied by a very long mantra (U.4.22–35), which invokes numerous Hindu deities. Indu acknowledges both passages where Aparājitā appears.
