「シュリーに敬礼、女神に敬礼、（勝利の相としての）ヴィジャヤに敬礼。大力のガウリーに敬礼—bandha（縛して制す）—敬礼。hūṃ、巨体なる者に敬礼。蓮華の手をもつ者に敬礼—hūṃ phaṭ。シュリーに敬礼、シュリーにphaṭ、シュリーに敬礼、シュリーにphaṭ、śrīṃ—シュリーに敬礼。繁栄を授けるシュリーダに敬礼。svāhā、svāhā—śrīphaṭ。」これら九つの支分（aṅga）真言が説かれたので、それぞれにニヤーサ（nyāsa）を施すべきである。三ラクシャ、または一ラクシャ誦し、蓮子の数珠で数えるなら、福徳と繁栄を得る／授ける者となる。

Concept: Nyāsa integrates mantra into the body (aṅga-sādhana), making the practitioner a locus of Śrī/Vijayā power; fixed japa counts operationalize siddhi.
Application: Perform aṅga-nyāsa with the nine formulas, then sustained japa with padmākṣa mālā to cultivate steadiness, confidence, and ‘śrī’ (prosperity/auspicious success).
