v3.c50.s2.9

Chapter eight (śrīparvatasādhana; 185 verses) is about dehasiddhi and lohasiddhi; it describes how to acquire a divine body and turn base metals into gold. This interesting chapter mentions repeatedly the mountain called Śrīśaila and abounds from beginning to end in names of local deities and geographical names.
