जंघां च योजयेत्पश्चात्त्वगाद्यं धातुसप्तकम् । प्राणाद्यं पञ्चकं पश्चादन्नाद्यं कोशपञ्चकम्

次に、心中に(観想して)脛を配し、ついで皮より始まる身体の七要素を置く。さらにプラーナ(prāṇa)より始まる五群を、そして食物鞘(annamaya)より始まる五鞘(kośa)を次第に配列し、シヴァの教えのもと、瑜伽の識別のために身の原理を整える。
Lord Shiva (teaching yogic/inner contemplation in the Kailāsa-saṁhitā)
Tattva Level: pasha
Shiva Form: Dakṣiṇāmūrti
It instructs a step-by-step inner mapping of the body’s layers—limbs, constituents (dhātus), vital functions, and the five kośas—so the seeker can discriminate the bound soul’s instruments (pāśa) from the witnessing Self that is to be offered to Śiva for liberation.
Such contemplation supports Saguna Śiva-upāsanā by purifying attention: as the practitioner recognizes body and prāṇa as mutable coverings, the mind becomes fit to steady itself on Śiva’s form (Liṅga) and, through grace, move toward the formless reality beyond coverings.
A meditative nyāsa-like internal placement: sequentially contemplate the bodily limb, the dhātus, the prāṇa-group, and the five kośas, using this discernment to detach from identification and to fix devotion on Śiva (optionally alongside japa of the Pañcākṣarī, “Om Namaḥ Śivāya”).
