yatra bāhyā abhyantarān upajapanti abhyantarā vā bāhyān tatra ubhaya-yoge pratijapataḥ siddhir viśeṣavatī.

Translation

ಬಾಹ್ಯರು ಅಭ್ಯಾಂತರರನ್ನು ಉಪಜಪಿಸುವಾಗ, ಅಥವಾ ಅಭ್ಯಾಂತರರು ಬಾಹ್ಯರನ್ನು ಉಪಜಪಿಸುವಾಗ—ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಅಭ್ಯಾಂತರ ಮತ್ತು ಬಾಹ್ಯ ಎರಡೂ ಪ್ರತಿಜಾಪೆಗಳನ್ನು ಸೇರಿಸಿ ಬಳಸಿದರೆ ಪ್ರತಿರೋಧದಲ್ಲಿ ಯಶಸ್ಸು ವಿಶೇಷವಾಗಿ ಖಚಿತವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.
